THE EXPERIENCE
Are you tired of the day-to-day grind, feeling lack lustre and uninspired? Imagine how it would feel to ignite your inner spark so you laugh like a child, and remember you are powerful and resilient!
Playful movement games to awaken your body and connect with others in a fun and meaningful way
Learn and practice some Pranayama techniques to regulate your nervous system at will
Challenge yourself and feel the benefits of the cold: a deep sense of joy, motivation and confidence
| What is the movement session about? The movement session is a dynamic and playful exploration rooted in disciplines such as animal movement, martial arts, and gymnastics. Designed to awaken the body and enhance mobility, strength, and body awareness, it encourages you to connect with yourself and others through engaging movement games. |
| Breathwork, what to expect? The breathwork session is a guided exploration of some simple Pranayama (yogic breathing) techniques. Through controlled breathing patterns, you will learn to harness the power of your breath to cultivate focus, release tension, and access a state of calm resilience. This practice serves as a bridge between movement and cold exposure, preparing the body and mind for the next stages of the retreat. |
| Ice... in my bath? Why would I do that? Stepping into an ice bath can be challenging at first, but the benefits make it well worth the effort. The initial shock quickly gives way to a deep sense of clarity and calm as your body adjusts. Physically, the cold helps reduce inflammation, ease muscle soreness, and speed up recovery. Mentally, it builds resilience, enhances focus, and leaves you feeling refreshed and energized. While the discomfort is temporary, the sense of strength and renewal you experience afterward lasts much longer. |

GOT A QUESTION?

You must stay in a 3 degrees water for 30 minutes, or you pay double!
More seriously, water temp is usually between 3-5 degrees Celsius and we stay 1-3 minutes on average. You are free, you don't have to go in if you don't want to! (But you'll have to go through Anthony first!)

I am sure you can guess that. What do you put on to workout, do yoga or swim usually?
Ok, I'll give you a cue. Not your ski outfit nor your business costume.
And don't forget your swimsuit and towel!

Your inner kid has to come. As for your 'outer' ones (ages 2-10), we have a 90 minute supervised kids' workshop at the same location (from 10h - 11h30). But spots are as rare as a full night’s sleep, so book ASAP! €10/child.
Full payment is due to reserve your spot. If the event is cancelled by the organisers due to bad weather or other circumstance, another date will be proposed. If this does not suit, then a refund will be issued. Please refer to our full Terms & Conditions.
