The food is healthy, delicious and wholesome (plus there is lots of it). Dessert with dinner is a must, not a juice cleanse or detox in sight. The food is a big part of the experience with carefully chosen chefs who will nourish your bodies in the best possible way.
We appreciate you, see the daily struggles, the chores, the care, the decisions, the way that life just sweeps you up. Zenaa Retreats are curated to give time and space to gain perspective, to lighten the load for a while so you can re-find the energy that has faded. You are nourished and nurtured, you can connect with likeminded individuals, have a giggle, grumble or deep moment with someone. The people that come on a Zenaa retreat are special, they are heartfelt and kind, we could not be prouder of this community, can't wait for you to become a part of it too! Solo travellers very welcome - you'll leave with 10 new friends.
The day can be as full or as quiet as you like. If you enjoy having a plan but also the freedom to opt in or out, this is for you. Mornings include scheduled activities; afternoons are yours. Enjoy a soak in the bath, browse local shops, or relax with a book. Optional extras include massage and creative workshops.
If you're the one hiding in the back row afraid of getting something wrong, or not being flexible enough, these retreats are for you. In our classes, you practice in a safe space, at your own pace, with no judgement. If you want to rest in child's pose for an hour, or skip a class completely, the choice is entirely yours.
What a gift to yourself these retreats with Katie are. As soon as you arrive you know you are in a safe nourishing healing place. Relaxed, fun, restful while moving your body positively and gently, such fabulous food and wonderful yoga for all standards. I highly recommend and will be booking again! Thank you for a truly fantastic long weekend in stunning surroundings.
The most perfect weekend executed amazingly, from the yoga classes, the wild swimming, the incredible food, the guided walks, the company and the chats, to the best nights sleep I've ever had, I can't find a single thing to fault in my retreat experience. Thank you to Katie for organising the most brilliant weekend. Can't wait to book my next one!
Katie’s calm and clear approach to our yoga lessons in the amazing yoga studio surrounded by nature was pure luxury. Through the meditation and journaling I was able to have the space and time to get my thoughts on paper and see how I could do things differently. During this time I felt supported by lovely like minded people. I have returned home totally recharged and re energised with a positive attitude, a slightly more flexible body, and a far more flexible outlook to life.
We were at a fantastic venue in Salcombe Devon. I didn’t really know what to expect but I absolutely loved it … Katie is an excellent teacher, catering for all levels , there was a great mix of Yoga, walks , meditation and yummy food along with a lovely group of like minded people and even Katie’s Mum helped out giving this a real family and inclusive feel. I’m just about to book another one!

And the best bit about it – lots of those customers are now close friends. It is the most incredible community.
