Having returned from Donna’s 2023 retreat in the Peak District I can honestly say that I feel like a new woman!
Donna had thought of every little detail to make the whole retreat so special and welcoming for everyone.
The location was one of such amazing beauty and the accommodation was warm, stylish, homely and comfortable with absolutely stunning views of the surrounding hills and valleys.
The food was out of this world, Bex is an incredibly talented chef with healthy vegan food that was beyond tasty!
Natalie provided us with amazing massages to promote further relaxation and wellbeing.
Donnas classes were outstanding, great for every level with focus on using different props to improve posture and build, stretch or relax our muscles . The meditations and gentle music soothed our souls and lulled us to sleep well at night.
Donna has put so much thought and effort into making this retreat so truly inspiring but also fun and relaxing. Everybody was so lovely and we shared the love and joy xxx
Donna you put so much effort and energy into making it so very special for everyone by going that ‘extra mile’.
Everything about the weekend was perfect, from the venue and the setting over looking the breath-taking scenery of the Peak District, to Bex’s delicious vegan food, your Pilates classes were focussed with everything so well organised, as well as having a relaxing schedule with the freedom to participate if you wanted to. From walks to emerging yourself in fresh water in the local river, which I avoided only because I thought photos were also a priority! Last but not least, to share this very special experience with the beautiful group of people I was surrounded by is something I will never forget. You are a true legend Donna and thank you again.
