About this trip

This was a great retreat!  So much fun and I learned a lot.  I went by myself and did not know anyone going so I was a little nervous.  Both Christine and Elisa were so welcoming and made me feel comfortable right away.

Ignite

This event was Epic.  From the details with the beautiful chic table settings, the farm fresh to table food. The panel of experts that were so informative. The woman that came all like minded that we all listened and we shared stories 

To Brooke Burke herself for opening up her home to hold this special and much  needed conversations that my mothers never shared or had with me. To our event planner Elisa from Yoganda Retreats who made every detail look so effortless knowing how much hard work goes into planning such an event

I left with my heart full.
Thank you
Julie 

womenopause

Everything and more than I was hoping for!  

After a very busy couple weeks, I found my center, regained my focus, and left feeling optimistic and enthusiastic.  Each activity was masterfully led, and the panel was very informative.  I am approaching my relationship with my spouse differently as a result of what I learned.  

Men... if you want to learn how to show up better in your relationship, attend a retreat that is 95% women.  I learned things that will guide me for the rest of my life. 

We had a great time wonderful people and great food!
Awesome!!

Brooke was a gracious hostess and put together a very nice event! Even though I am a provider of BHRT myself, I found the discussion from her panel helpful to my own personal experience by helping me shift the anxiety I felt about how changes affect my own relationship. The comment that “desire will now follow arousal; rather than desire before arousal…but the good news is that you will never lose it” was so helpful! I’ll be sure to share that with my patients too.

  Elisa and Brooke took such great care in all the details of creating a beautiful and memorable Womenopause event.
Brooke’s “I Am” meditation was an incredible way to set the mood and open the conversation. The guest panel were informative and incredible resource for women’s whole health.
The whole environment was impeccable set up for an evening of connection, community, and intimate conversation. Thank you for an amazing experience and evening!

My husband and I had the most incredible experience in Sicily! Elisa and Joanne's passion for Sicily truly shone through every aspect of the trip, making it an unforgettable and authentic experience. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and immediately felt at home. Elisa and Joanne's knowledge and love for Sicily were evident in every excursion, every meal, and every shared story. Their dedication to showcasing the beauty and richness of Sicilian culture made the trip truly special.

One of the highlights of the retreat was the opportunity to meet amazing new friends. The sense of community that developed among us was truly heartwarming. We enjoyed delicious meals together, shared stories, laughter, and created memories that will last a lifetime. 

Overall, my time at the retreat in Italy was a perfect blend of relaxation, exploration, and connection. Thanks to Elisa and Joanne's passion and dedication, I not only enjoyed a beautiful trip but also made lasting memories and friendships.

Escape to Sicily: A Culinary Odyssey of Wellness and Wonder

This trip brought together so many of my passions and life pleasures - travel, meeting new people, health & wellness and cooking. But more than that, we truly were able to bring ‘La Dolce Vita’ into each day of the trip. Everyday was perfectly curated, but also flexible enough to go along with the flow of the group. Giovanna was a wonderful host and it was executed to perfection with Elisa.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the hosts of this extraordinary daytime wellness retreat. The experience we had was nothing short of exceptional, and we are deeply thankful for the effort and care that went into creating such a memorable event.

From the moment we arrived at the stunning location, we were captivated by the sheer beauty and tranquility that surrounded us. It was a true sanctuary, providing the perfect backdrop for a day of relaxation and rejuvenation.

The day of wellness and activations was a delight for the senses. We appreciated the thoughtfulness that went into every detail, ensuring that we felt nurtured and supported. The hosts' commitment to our well-being was evident in the carefully curated activities and the genuine care they showed for each individual.

The food served during the retreat was simply incredible. Lunch was a culinary masterpiece, bursting with flavor and prepared with the utmost skill and creativity. We were truly spoiled by the hosts' dedication to providing nourishing and delicious meals that satisfied both our bodies and souls.

The qi gong and booty burn classes quickly became our favorites. The expert instructors guided us through invigorating sessions that left us feeling empowered and energized. Their passion and expertise were evident in every movement, making each class a true highlight of the retreat.

One of the most memorable experiences was the healing breathwork and soundbath outside, surrounded by the embrace of nature. We were transported to a place of deep relaxation and inner peace, as we allowed ourselves to be carried away by the soothing sounds and the gentle rhythm of our breath. The hosts' commitment to utilizing the healing power of nature was truly remarkable.

In conclusion, we want to express our deepest appreciation to the hosts for providing us with a transformative and unforgettable experience. The retreat was a testament to their dedication, and we are grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of it. Thank you for creating a day of wellness and rejuvenation that exceeded all expectations.

Spring into Summer wellness

So much great information and community involvement.  You can tell this is a hot topic that women really want help with.  So thankful you all put this together.  

breaking the taboo of peri-menopause & menopause

I had a very relaxing time in Tuscany. All the people at the Spa Resort were more than friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. Wish we had more time in Rome. :)  Thank you

Italy's wellness getaway

I recently had the pleasure of attending a retreat hosted by Elisa and Brooke Burke, and it was truly life-changing.  I'm looking forward to attending another retreat in the near future! The entire retreat experience, from start to finish, was empowering, purposeful, and tailored perfectly to the group's needs.The connections I formed during the retreat were incredibly meaningful. I felt a strong sense of community and camaraderie with all the other participants. The retreat program itself was a fantastic mix of body sculpting, breathwork, and wellness workshops. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth of the workshops and how much I learned about myself through them. Each activity was carefully designed to promote physical, mental, and emotional well-being, and the peaceful natural surroundings only enhanced the overall tranquility of the retreat.I highly recommend attending a retreat with these wonderful ladies if you want to reconnect with yourself, deepen your personal growth journey, and build meaningful connections with like-minded individuals. Thank you so much for providing such an unforgettable experience—I am eagerly looking forward to returning!

LONGEVITY | Mind.Body.Energy. Build your own BB zone.

I had zero expectations leading up to this event. I knew I wanted to experience a mind body connection somewhere tropical and that’s what I got! I knew I wanted to have some new tools to take into this new year and break some old mindsets that have been holding me back, that’s what I got! I wanted to move my body differently and cut off distractions from the outside world, that’s what I got! I’ve never felt so aligned with my new intentions and supported as I worked through some of the old self limiting thoughts .The accommodations were beautifully rustic and the food was average, but that’s not why I went. I went to fine tune myself, my perspective and create new healthy habits, that’s exactly what I got and more! Bravo to everyone who helped set this new year on track for me. Ill be back, Ive already manifested it ;)

BBBody&Soul | Longevity Retreat in Costa Rica

Hello Carol, we are very sorry that this is your idea of a fabulous retreat that got 5 stars and amazing reviews from every single person on this trip. Regarding the organization, we were fully supportive in each step of your booking. We reacted very fast when, only the day before you were traveling, you sent us your flight details and we realized you were landing in the wrong airport. We showed full support while you were traveling solo, we spent time with you and we offered you dinner, the day before the retreat started. 
We treated you with compassion and support. The meals offered at buffet style were listed in the original contract, and the food was beyond amazing, offering a variety of fruits, vegetables and different form of proteins, at each meal. The waterfall hike was a very simple hike, we waited for transportation as part of the excursion, there was shade, and fresh fruits offered to everyone. 
We are sorry that this is your perception of the whole experience and we are quite surprised about your review. Hopefully, you learnt that there is no secret to longevity, but longevity is sisterhood, community, and how you perceive life. 

Disorganized & disappointing, 
There was nothing related to longevity about this retreat.
Eating at a buffet meals a day isn’t a 5 star experience. 
Being left for an hour in the hot sun along the side of a river waiting for transportation isn’t a 5 star experience. 
Not knowing any details about the waterfall excursion when asked 2x is not a 5 star experience.
Not having bug spray for your guests not a 5 star experience. 
Not knowing who’s actually going on your retreat NOT a 5 star experience.
The resort running out of towels not a 5 star experience.

Over promises and undelivered 

My experience in Costa Rica with Brooke Burke and Elisa Magni was incredibly enriching and transformative. The combination of mindful practices, body movement , communal connection, and transformative activities was without a doubt a valuable investment in my personal well-being. 

Brooke asks some very important reflective questions that helped me tune into my core being,  as well as get really honest  and accountable with myself . 

My favorite activities included the breath-work ceremony, group 
I AM manifestion affirmations , mirror work  and the transformative letter writing . Lastly , and  perhaps the most invaluable aspect of this retreat is the deep connection and communal  bond  that formed between myself. Brooke , Elisa and ALL of the women attending. 

In addition, the resort is absolutely beautiful. The ocean is perfectly salty, warm and blissful, the food is extremely fresh with lots of vegetarian and vegan options. All of which  I thoroughly enjoyed !

We also got a very generous swag bag filled with all of Brooke and Elisa‘s favorite things , ranging from  hats , work-out clothes, candles and journals ! And the list goes on ! 

I am grateful that I choose to invest in myself and took this journey with Brooke and Elisa . I cannot  think of a better way to begin the new year.  

I retuned home with the tools needed to keep vibrating at this higher frequency. I AM energetically lighter , I  AM  every woman, and  I AM ready for an extraordinary 2024 . 

Let me just say, if you are in a point of your life seeking transformation and restoration this experience is for you. Brook created such a safe supported space which allowed us all to be open and available for growth.
I came home from this retreat refreshed, focused and calm. I have a better sense of who I am and what I want to experience moving forward. 
Forever grateful for this community and in awe of the dedication Brooke has to each and everyone of us. Her work ethic is extraordinary and her level to connect to each of us is unparalleled. 
Stop what you’re doing and take a moment to consider this opportunity for yourself. You deserve all the good things this retreat will curate. So much love and gratitude.

An amazing experience! So blessed to have had the opportunity to attend such a transformational event. Elisa was the best and was always there for any questions. Brooke focused not only on body wellness but also teaching a mind and body connection and left me with tools that I’ll be able to make part of my life. I made connections with many women who I believe will be lifelong soul sisters. I definitely recommend! 

My experience was life changing. This retreat was everything I didn't even know I needed, and more. Elisa is the absolute best and thought of every single detail. The resort was amazing. Elisa handled the transportation details, and anything else we needed, she was there to help. She is a beautiful person inside and out, and I'm grateful to have met and connected with her personally. I'd highly recommend her retreat! 

I've never done something like this and highly recommend it.  The location was fabulous and the people were amazing!  Loved learning and growing in this environment.  I can't wait to do another one!!

Brooke Burke Body AZ Retreat

It is difficult to put into words the incredible, life-enhancing, meaningful and lovely emotional and physical gifts attending this retreat gave me. First of all, we all felt welcome (12 of us) regardless of our varying fitness levels, ages and backgrounds. I am currently under treatment for stage four breast cancer, yet I enjoyed it as much as the fitness instructors who attended alongside me. Elisa is available to answer questions literally day or night in preparation for the trip. The location, Carefree Arizona, was breathtaking and perfect. Upon meeting Brooke and Elisa, they right away hugged me and made me feel like we had been friends forever. They are two of the most genuine, authentic and caring women I’ve ever met. The first class upon arrival already brought all class participants, Brooke and Elisa together closely. The time we all spent together gave me such positive and loving energy. All classes and hikes can be modified to whatever your fitness level is. I never felt awkward because I didn’t have as much yoga experience or stamina as some others. Brooke and Elisa give every minute of their time literally to us and our needs. They made themselves available even during break times. We all felt they genuinely wanted to spend time with us. We also left the retreat with so many ongoing tools and resources to sustain, enhance, replace, whatever we wanted to get out of the retreat, physically and emotionally. The health journey you go on is transformational and sustainable. We have an ongoing group text, and we are already planning a reunion in January because we love each other so much! Brooke and Elisa generously gave us a phenomenal goodie bag (that you will need to put in another suitcase!) made up of many of their favorite products. I couldn’t believe the quality and generosity of them, and I am enjoying everything they gave us! Brooke also shares her discount codes on items you may be interested in (eg I ordered red lights with her discounts). I am enjoying attending Brooke’s Monday Zoom chats, Friday workouts, all kinds of ongoing tools, app, classes you can take advantage of! We have accountability partners upon leaving the retreat so we have someone to help us achieve our goals and not slip into poor habits. Elisa and Brooke have huge hearts, room for all of us, wisdom to share; and my life has positively changed because of them and the other wonderful friends I made.  I could go on and on about all the special details but there is not enough space! 

I had a beautiful experience. Brooke was lovely and the community of people was amazing. Food was great, I would have preferred to have lunch maybe from the restaurant and not the bowl/salad to go box. That would not deter me from future retreats. thank you for an amazing experience 🤍

I am beyond grateful for the amazing experience I had at the Brooke Burke Body retreat is Carefree, AZ. Elisa and Brooke’s passion for health, wellness, and connection was evident in every detail of the retreat.  I left the retreat feeling stronger and more balanced both physically and emotionally. The best part of of retreat was the amazing people that Brooke and Elisa brought together!  

The retreat was beyond expectations! Civana is a perfect desert location, beautiful and serene with fantastic amenities.  The food was healthy and delicious.  The programing and activities were above and beyond any expectations I had coming into the weekend. So thoughtfully curated.  Brooke and Elisa are dream team hosts. I loved getting to know everyone...such a sense of community. I highly recommend to anyone who wants to indulge in meaningful self care and self discovery.  

This amazing retreat in Arizona with Brooke and Elisa was life changing! The beautiful setting, classes, and transformative meditations truly blew me away. In addition, the food was delicious and the spa was exceptional! I’m so grateful for this incredible experience!

It is my third time stay ing at Civana and I absolutely love it there!  Food is healthy and delicious, spa is amazing, staff are friendly and helpful, and there are so many great classes to take.  The PSM training with Rebecca was great.  She is so knowledgeable and motivating.  Her program is top notch and I am excited to take what I've learned into my pilates studio to practice personally and with my clients.

PSM Updated 2.0 Course Retreat

It was life changing and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone who wants to give back to themselves by joining a community of like minded people who also want to be the best versions of themselves. Everyone needs to experience Yogando Retreats at least once in their lifetime! 

Private event at Soul Creek

For a new retreat, I was very impressed. The professionals brought in for massage and classes were excellent. The hosts created a wonderful atmosphere and environment that was warm and inviting.

This retreat was absolutely magical. Soul Creek with Yogando Retreats did a fantastic job curating the perfect wellness retreat. Soul Creek is such a special place. It allows you to get reconnected with yourself and earth. It is a boho chic playground designed with tents, teepees, labyrinth, sauna, pool, hot tub, cold plunge, dreamcatchers, flowers, lemon garden, treehouse and so much more. You are sleeping under the stars in the hills of Malibu. 

The weekend retreat was centered around connection, community, love, self-reflection, movement and mindfulness. We moved our bodies with yoga, Qi Gong, Brooke's Booty Burn, dancing and hiking then plugged back into ourselves through journaling, meditating, sound baths, and introspective workshops. We also did beauty treatments like massages, body mask, biohacking, red light therapy and injections (B12 and NAD)

We ate food in its natural state with high vibration. Farm to table style prepared with love to nourish our body. We drank matcha, crystal water and wellness shots. We slowed down and sat around the table to be present as we grazed on this food prepared for us. 

Yogando did a phenomenal job curating this retreat. She is passionate about wellness, and you can tell in her attention to detail. She is an absolute angel who makes sure everyone has what they need at all times and does it with an authentic smile. She is always capturing the best moments for you to share on social media or keep for your own personal memories. The day after the retreat, we had a link to all the pictures and videos taken during the retreat. Just wow!! Doing this retreat or any other retreat with her, I can confidently say you will be in exceptional hands. (Thank you Elisa)

To sum it up, we laughed, cried, explored, and made lasting memories. This weekend was a blessing and will be remembered in my heart forever. 

Sincerely,
Jess 

Throughly enjoyed my experience.  Yolanda retreats is extremely organized and made sure we all had everything needed each and everyday. Can’t say enough about my wonderful experience and look forward to many more.  Julie   5 star 

This retreat was amazing! It was uplifting, heart warming, inspirational. Brooke and Elisa are fantastic. The women were so wonderful too!

I had a fantastic experience in Morocco! The place was perfect for a yoga retreat, food was delicious and they were well organized. Yoga teachers give us amazing energy during the days, many tips and new ideas. I can only raccomaded a trip so well planned! You only have to worry about get there! 

Grace and Fire

A huge thank you Kimmie & Rebecca for a wonderful retreat! 
You brought together a wonderfully diverse group of ladies, and took us to a stunning location for a week of bonding and adventure. 
Your yoga practice was new to me, and challenging, in many ways.  
It was exciting to see new approaches as well as see you working in great partnership. 
Thanks for the breath of fresh air, and fabulous new friendships.  

Thank you everybody for making this yoga retreat happened. Very well organised, we got all the information we needed before the trip.

Accommodation- the resort is fantastic! Exceptionally friendly staffs from front desk to kitchen. The pool area is chilled and you can simply walk to the beach at anytime if you prefer, with sun beds and towels provided.

Programme- big shout out for Rebecca and Kimie, always pay attention to our energy level and tailored the programme accordingly. Rebecca and Kimie are professional and yet friendly instructors, giving us a very fruitful and full of laughter practice. I really improved my skill of my yoga practice.

Last but not least, thank you Eliza for handling all the enquires before, during and after the retreat!

Highly recommended for those who look for improving your yoga practice or simply a relaxing retreat.

I would recommend Grace and Fire, Rebecca and Kim. They compliment each other perfectly with their teaching styles. The classes and workshops were fun and challenging at the same time with lots of information to take away and practice.  Morocco was great the hotel was lovely. All in all a wonderful experience especially because it was on the beach and the yoga studio overlooked the sea. The studio was fully equipped . I would definitely recommend anyone to go on a  retreat with Grace and Fire - Rebecca and Kim. You will laugh, cry have fun and also learn, flow and work what more could you possibly want!

Absolutely incredible experience!  Such a beautiful space, facilitated by amazing humans.  Thank You Brooke for opening up your home and allowing us to connect with others as well as within.

Thank you Elisa & Yogando for organising such a beautiful retreat. When's the next one?

Yogando Retreats review
Yogando Retreats organised this trip very well, as it was almost an all forms of transport to get to the location (plane, ferry, shuttle, car), they gave us all the information we needed to get there. Communication was clear but perhaps all the transfers and petrol should have been included in the price so the only thing we had to worry about was the airfare and extra excursions. In terms of the extra excusions it would have been nice to know about them before we actually got to the retreat but luckily the spontaneous organisation of these excursions worked out. I was disappointed that we never got to do the breath work or meditation that was mentioned in the itinerary, as I was really looking forward to that part of the evening.

Paola Pilates review
Paola is a lovely young woman and I was a little concerned at first as she is a little introvert and it took her awhile to open up and talk with the guests, but in the end she opened up, and made people feel welcomed and amazing, especially after her morning lessons.

I thought Paola's lessons were very good and I'm happy that she only used her music in the first lesson, because with the ambience of nature surrounding us she really didn't need music at all and her voice is particularly soft, so it was better to hear her cues as well without music drowing out her voice. Paola's abdominal workshop was a nice touch especially for those guests who didn't have an understanding of how to be aware and connect with their abdominals during a Pilates lesson.

Casa di Sale review
I absolutely loved this little rustic and raw Villa, it felt like home and Nadia makes you feel so welcomed into her home. I stayed in the big tent and slept comfortably but sleeping 4 days in a tent is enough for me. If the retreat was any longer I would have liked a room. I think the tent accommodation could do with some little bean bags outside the tent on the deck to sit on so you can read a book, or just have a little snooze, but swaying in the hammock outside the tent was very relaxing. If you are sharing a tent and the hammock is occupied, the other person has no chill out space other than the common area which is a beautiful space to hang out but sometimes people like to have their space so maybe the common area doesn't give people that space they need. Mosquitoes were only a problem the first night and once I understood to fumigate the tent before sundown I had no problems. LOVED LOVED LOVED the outdoor shower!! Oh and a pool would have been nice to have a dip in during the day and in the evening under the stars.

Food review
OMG the food was delicious, I wanted to take Nadia and Rossella home with me. It was so healthy, nutritious and flavoursome and I liked that it was more plant based and that there was no alcohol offered. A little suggestion for after the Pilates or a Yoga class that a nice glass or shot of some healthy juice concoction was ready for drinking right after the lesson would have been nice to give you a little boost and to rehydrate you.

Excursions review
Sound healing was a great experience, language barrier was a little off as I don't think they knew how to express themselves and their method as they were not fluent in English. I loved how it was performed under the stars.

SUP was fun, 30-45mins would have been enough and may I suggest not to organise dinner in the town afterwards as it would have been nice to have a shower to wash the salt off but in saying that we were all ready to pay the 1 euro for the 20 second shower if they had not changed the SUP location point.

Other comments
Having Paola and Elisa joining us for the lessons, brunch/dinner, participating in the excursions and generally hanging out and also having them and Nadia driving us around the island was a real personal touch that you can't get with big group retreats so it felt more special, intimate and connected. We were also very lucky to have a great bunch of girls who all got along nicely.

A truly special experience, and exactly what I needed.

Thank you, Yvette

Xtend Barre - Arizona Retreat

How does one use mere words to describe this retreat! I have never enjoyed myself for a full week 24 hours a day this much. The resort was so serene and perfect for me. The programs offered were top notch and when outdoors offered views unparalleled. The trip coordinator Elisa was one of the kindest people I have met and went above and beyond and over and under to make this a retreat not to be forgotten. The extend barre community were some of the most caring and wonderful women I have ever  met. Andrea, the originator of extend barre could not have been nicer to all of us. I have been back two days and still blown away. I have learned new coping skills, new exercise concepts and have come away with knowing I am worth all of this. My gratitude to this event is off the charts. My hubby said he really has not seem me this happy in a while and if it makes me feel so good I should definitely go again!
Thank you Yogandoresorts, Andrea and staff of Extend Barre, and the Civana Wellness Resort for a trip of a lifetime that will not end at one. I am going again with this team!!!
Mary (Chip) Tautkus

This yoga retreat was everything I expected and more! Elisa was absolutely wonderful, (and so was the yoga) and Denise from My Purposeful Path had us looking deep inside ourselves for answers to questions we didn’t even realize we had! Highly recommended and would definitely attend a retreat like this again in the future! 

My Purposeful Path Restorative Retreat

It was a unique experience: challenging and super enriching; with a group created entirely by wonderful people, each in their own unique way. 
I sincerely thank all the staff and people who helped making this event possible.
I hope to attend other retreats soon, and have the chance to experience this magic again.
 
Sincerely
Charity
