Here’s what Robyn Madeley, who joined us in July 2025 said: “Our Retreat at Shoreham was a wonderful chance to re-charge, re-connect and allow time to self reflect in a nuturing and peaceful environment by the beach. In luxury accommodation, we were surrounded with like minded professional women seeking time to pause and be renergised through yoga, conversations and laughter. Our hosts, Lisa and Lisa welcomed us with open arms, like it was their home, and their genuine and authentic styles created an engaged and fully connected atmosphere to allow our thoughts to grow. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!”

Wellness Program: Yoga, Meditation and Workshops
This retreat is suitable for all levels of yoga experience from beginners through to those with an established yoga practice.
There will be energising and uplifting morning yoga (not too early…you are on holidays!), designed to enliven you. The sunset yoga sessions will be restorative and gentle.
We’ll explore what it means to be truly well - body, mind and soul. This is an individual journey, but we’ll collectively look at what yoga, ayurveda, psychology and other integrative practices can teach us about creating a life that is vibrant and graceful. It’s finding your own steady ground. This retreat is lighthearted…expect to have fun.
As we watch the waves on the beach, we’ll watch the waves of our own breath, the ebb and flow of thought and of sensation; we’ll remember to gently trust in the flow of life.
You will leave Shoreham better equipped to manage the stressors of daily life.
