"Yoga on Gozo for men "
An excellent anf well structured retreat done at everyone's pace with a lot of roim for sharing.
Nigel Sheppard from Great Britain

"Great experience well needed recharge."
Great experience far more than I expected. From the beginning communication was good with speedy response from Sean. Good direction for transfer between Malta and Gozo to get to the retreat. My accommodation choice was good, I chose private double room with shared bathroom and kitchen. The facility was far more spacious than expected. The yoga was a great experience, Sean was well able to manage all levels of students, I had little experience but was given plenty of attention. There was a great variety of yoga, Ariel was especially enjoyable. The early morning classes gave a great start to the day and the evening class finished the day off nicely. The diving was well organized and very enjoyable, three dives on 3 separate days pickup from the retreat at 7.45 taken to Atlantis dive school in Marsalforn. Given very clear instructions and shown how to set everything up and briefed clearly on all dives. Very enjoyable diving. On the evenings after the dives we taken on trips to some great places around the island by Sean, this was not mentioned on the website and was a great addition. Food at the retreat was freshly prepared for every meal breakfast,lunch and dinner. No two meals were the same and the food was very healthy, nutritious and plenty of it. This could well become a yearly escape from life for me going forward.
Martin Dewhurst from Ireland

"An amazing experience"
Sean is a very friendly and kind person and an excellent yoga teacher. The massage was also amazing! We made a exciting trip with him and some locals into the jungle for our spiritual growth.
Inge Holtman from United States

"EXCELLENT RETREAT "
Quality of the yoga classes. Great location and amazing house. Excellent management of the retreat. Really great activities with a lot of fun.
Luis Maside from Norway

"One of the best decisions of my life "
I came here without any expectations. I had never done anything like this before and had no clue that I was about to change my life. This retreat helped me find my inner power and remove so many mental and emotional blocks that have been a problem for me for years. Sean is an angel on this earth. He is a true healer. I will forever be grateful for this experience. He helped me see things about myself that I couldn’t. If you feel like you are blocked, lost, or need to connect with yourself, this will change you for the better! The week was so amazing, and my future is so much brighter now.
Ivan Zammit from United States
