It’s my third retreat with Elena and I’m impressed by how she makes all feel comfortable and how she always continues to expand her teachings and techniques.

We enjoyed delicious meals and a wonderfully run and beautifully decorated hotel in the middle of the mountains.

I arrived overloaded with life. I leave restored and taking techniques I will continue to apply at home. Thank you!

 

This testimonial is written right after a sublime hike in the mountains of Bernese Highlands/Berner Oberland near the waterfalls. Because Elena’s retreats are also that…

A grandiose nature that fills you up with energy, warm human encounters, exceptional food and of course a high quality yoga practice with attention for each person. I’ve been to many retreats with Elena and it’s always an experience of renewal.

A big THANK YOU to Elena and Michael’s team for their incredible welcome!

Loved everything! Wunderbar!

This was my first yoga retreat and it exceeded my expectations on all levels: stunning location in the Swiss Alps, the cosiest hotel with friendly staff that make you feel at home, a sparkling yoga teacher bubbling with positive energy, that will guide you through different yoga styles and help you gain  strength in your body and peace in your mind.

I love here today feeling stronger and grateful for my body, with a calm mind and loving heart. Thank you for helping me achieve this!

Thank you for your laughter Elena! Best medicine in the world!

I hope we meet again.

Love,

Ruxandra

Elena’s voice is soothing, melodious and calming. She’s authentic in her approach and teaching. These values + traits are important to me.

I love the slow pace which fits all of us here. We can choose to do more (or less) with no pressure.

 

Thank you for a lovely 4-day retreat!

 

It was great to meet people from so many different places and at different phases of life but see that we all are connected at a human level when we come to a safe space and share.

Elena – I feel like you would light up any room that you walk into! Your spiritual practice is clearly so strong for someone so young and it has been a true pleasure to be on your retreat.

On a practical level, all was great and well organised. Thanks for picking great menus!

 

 

Very peaceful and calm place, perfect to disconnect and recharge. I liked that there was also a lot of free time so that I could relax during this busy time of the year. A very harmonious program that included different parts of the body and also meditation. Great guidance in yoga classes by Elena.

Super nice and cosy place and friendly and welcoming team!

As mentioned in person, I found your retreat exceptional, starting with your competent, strong and soft and caring teaching to the ability you have to be open, flexible yet prescriptive and precise on pose details.

Just lovely all around!

Feeling joyful. Privileged. Grounded.

Another beautiful and magical experience!

The teacher (Elena) is amazing. Her voice and the way the classes are held gives off a very calming and grounded feeling.

I enjoyed all the classes and the individual attention by Elena and I also loved the hike. The location is mesmerizing!

It was my second retreat and I was just as amazing as the first time. It’s been another wonderful experience.

I loved everything about this retreat in the Swiss Alps and wish I could have been here from the start. Nevertheless, I was able to find my balance again and reconnect with myself and nature and I thank you for that!

Can’t wait till the next retreat in Norway!

 

Thanks Elena for this precious moment.

I truly appreciated these 4 days with your guidance.

It is very nice to have a mix of yoga, meditation and myofascial release exercises.

It has been a long time since I felt so good! I could not speak in the group since I felt like crying – of joy!

 

Thank you!

I can always say that retreats with Elena became my yearly rituals.

This is the time I dedicate purely to myself. The programme is designed in such a way that as a participant, I can choose what I want in that particular moment of my life.

If I want company, there’s always someone lovely to talk to or hike with. If I need a bit of time for myself, I can rest in a nice room or be outside by myself.

Elena creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere that you don’t ever feel forced to do anything and you can truly follow your inner guidance.

Classes led by Elena are amazing practices. Each time I learn something new and feel great afterwards.

Will be back next year for sure!

 

Practical feedback: Elena is an amazing yoga teacher with vast knowledge, a beautiful voice and personality.

I enjoyed everything: place, room, programme. Nothing to improve!
