Pilates Retreat in Spain
25-29 June 2025
Cherished Pilates classes, spanish cuisine and leisure activities to suit your pace. While you are basking in the spanish scenery, everything is looked after, so all you have to do is enjoy your retreat.
Incredible 5-day retreat in El Chorro, just 50km from the shores of the Mediterranean and the Andalucian city of Málaga.
Escape the stresses of daily life and focus on the physical and mental well-being. The Olive Branch El Chorro is a stunning location, nestled in the heart of Andalusia's beautiful countryside.
Pilates has become the ultimate in fitness techniques. It lengthens, strengthens and tones the body, working on the deep postural muscles through slow controlled exercises and it corrects body posture. Suitable for first time exercisers, very safe for those with back problems, yet it can improve athletic performance!
This Pilates holiday is suitable for all levels. I will contact you prior to your holiday to discuss all your relevant requirements and medical history. This allows for your Pilates experience to be totally personalised.
The Benefit - "Pilates is the single most efficient and effective exercise you can do" J.Pilates.

HEAL YOUR MIND, BODY AND SPIRIT
A retreat is the perfect way to develop new habits, break old ones, and take back home what you learn and adapt it to your everyday life. Regroup and surround yourself with people who see the world like you do. This retreat gives you a taste of what it is like to live mindfully and identify with what makes you more happy and content.
MAKE NEW FRIENDS
You'll find it reassuring to meet other like-minded people. Where similar interests converge in such a beautiful, peaceful place with a common goal, a special bond is formed amongst the group. Whether travelling independently, with friends, family or partners, Rosanna has gone to great lengths to create an inclusive, supportive and fun environment.
I firmly believe a wellness break should make you feel at ease. That’s why I don’t hold back on quality or service. Working closely with my partners in Spain, with the knowledge of the region and its culture, I am able to deliver boutique, fun retreats for everyone with a personalised touch. I hope you can join me in this very special adventure!
