Retreat to Lisbon, Portugal


  • Áurea Museum & Hotel Rua Cais de Santarém 52, 1100-104 Lisbon Portugal (map)

Join Krista Cahill and me in my (now) hometown of Lisbon, Portugal! We will hold the retreat at the amazing Aurea Museum & Hotel right in the heart of Lisbon within walking distance of all the neighborhoods you’ll want visit (you might want to take an inexpensive uber to one or two others, Lisboa is BIG :) We will have two classes per day, Krista and I will switch off days and we will hold one early morning intense class before breakfast (intense vinyasa with me or ashtanga taught in a very methodical and detailed way with Krista).. Late morning we’ll have more of a questions and answer / stretch and release class. This will be a GREAT opportunity to really STUDY and learn. I’ve found that doing a retreat in such a dynamic city, it’s much more enjoyable to not have to worry about rushing back to take a class so our training / practice will be ended by noon each day :) I’ll have loads of recommendations and things to do and places to eat for you (but there may be some days you simply want to enjoy the hotel, walk across the street to sit by the water and enjoy a coffee :) Breakfast is included every day as well as a Welcome Dinner at the hotel the first night (so you can relax from traveling) . We are also including a dinner one night at my friend’s restaurant in the Alfama (half Italian / half traditional Portuguese / all delicious :) As we get closer, we’ll also arrange a trip (totally optional) to my favorite castle in Sintra, Quinta da Regaleira. Sintra is 30 minutes away from Lisbon and, if you decide to go on this trip, you can make it your own either spending the day there or heading back whenever you choose. Total cost is $1966 for a shared room (1800€) or $2730 (2500€) for a private room. $300 to hold a spot, Venmo @Renee-LeBlanc-5 or Zelle teilujeener@gmail.com (please understand that deposits are non-refundable.)
