Rocket & Restore Yoga Retreat

Cocoon Portugal 8 – 14 March 2025

We are delighted to invite you to our retreat at the gorgeous Cocoon in Portugal, hosted by Sammi, Alice and Paul. A transformative blend of dynamic and restorative yoga, adventure and relaxation set against the spectacular backdrop of Portugal’s Silver Coast.

On a retreat we rest, we reconnect – to ourselves and others, we remember to breathe, we transform. It’s an incredible opportunity to leave our daily lives behind and create the space we need to rediscover ourselves.

Spending time alone in natural surroundings feeds the senses and allows for an experience that echoes through to your core. Gift yourself the time and space to pause, to deepen your practice and to slow down to the natural rhythm of life. You’ll return revived and refreshed with a newfound sense of inner balance, calm and wellbeing.

Choose the full retreat experience (departing on 14th March) or a long weekend getaway (departing on 12th March).

We cannot wait to share this magical experience with you.

Alice’s classes offer an empowering space to breathe and move, encouraging soulful, embodied practice that nourishes daily life.
