What the girls are saying

"Never thought i'd enjoy surfing but this was the absolute best intro. Then, after hours of playing in the water, the sound bath in the beautiful cove filled my soul. I understand exactly why this retreat is called Illuminate!"

Jen
“My day at Illuminate was out of a dream. Spending the day at such a beautiful spot in nature, surrounded by incredible humans, and getting to enjoy surfing, yoga, and relaxation on the beach was absolutely perfect. The Illuminate team had all the details on point. The food was delicious. The vibes were high. I’d definitely recommend this experience to everyone!"

Michelle
“Take this as your sign to go flow - on your mat and in the water - with Illuminate Retreats - a magical day to play and connect as dreamed up by Ewa. The details aside (for a moment), it is days like this that remind me how grateful I am to live in a place like Bermuda and to have the community that we have here. Now back to the details: the morning coffee, the surf lesson, the most delicious food, more surf, the sound bath, the cuddle-puddle (I may have forced this one upon everyone...), the bonfire - all of it flowed from sunrise to sunset. Ps. it was from this day our Frothy Friday (aka. Morning Tumbles) community was born."

Jaclyn
"The illuminate day retreat helped me to connect with nature, likeminded women, and myself. Ewa created an itinerary that was energizing yet also restorative. I look forward to attending another illuminate retreat in the future and hopefully bringing some of my friends along with me!"

Carly
“What stood out to me about Illuminate was Ewa’s ability to curate a truly magical sequence of activities that allowed us to nourish our bodies and souls, conquer fears, build new friendships and connect with Bermuda’s stunning landscape. From beginning to end, every aspect of the Illuminate was planned and executed flawlessly... The best part – as a day event, Illuminate is accessible to anyone interested in enjoying and embracing the benefits of a retreat. If you haven’t already, sign up for the next Illuminate retreat – your body, mind and soul will thank you for it! ”
