The most joyful reset I didn't know I needed...
I’ve had the joy of joining two OhSoYoga retreats with Stacey - one in the wild of South Africa (yoga + safari!), and another sailing (or motoring!) the Greek islands on a traditional boat. Both were unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experiences that left me feeling recharged, reconnected, and completely myself again.
What sets OhSoYoga apart, is the magic combination of beautiful yoga, deep female connection, and pure fun. The yoga itself is in various forms - we did yin, vinyasa, face, partner and aerial yoga, sound baths, gong baths and more - Stacey was great at assessing and offering what the group needed each time, whether that was morning energy at sunrise (my favourite), evening stillness or laughing face yoga after a few drinks!
But there was so much more to the trips than the yoga - there was dancing under the stars, laughter over incredible meals, sharing stories, and forming instant bonds with women from all over, who otherwise I would never have met, with lives and stories I would never have heard. I left each retreat feeling like I’d made lifelong friends and had a chance to let go and breathe.
The attention to detail, the stunning locations, the heart behind the hosting - everything feels intentionally designed to create joy, connection, and SPACE to just be. Without realising it was happening, I ticked off so many consious and sub-consious items from my bucket list - hiking through mountains, swimming in waterfalls, yoga on deck at sunrise, incredible wild animal spotting, yoga near a lion pride (!), foods I'd always wanted to try, horse riding, cave swimming in the clearest water, zebras walking past as I was having a bath... the list goes on! Whether you’re coming to rest, grow, laugh, cry, or to catch your breath, you’ll find it (and probably more) on one of the retreats.
Words can't explain how special these trips have been for me, and I genuinely can’t wait to join another one. If you're even thinking about going, just book it now - you won't regret it... thank you Stacey for making these magical trips a reality.
