As you book your dream Move & Relax Retreat, you are contacted by either Jeanette or Sarah who will guide you through what you need to know next. Flight paths, best airport destination, transfer options and all the details of making sure your arrival and departure is easy AND relaxed.

You then arrive at your destination to be welcomed by our warm and smiley team who will show you to your accomodation before taking you for a walk around to get you acquainted with our beautiful surroundings.

You can grab a cup of tea, enjoy our local produce arrival platters and sit gazing into the ocean and ever-changing skies while waiting for the afternoon activities to begin. 

We talk you through what to expect during your stay ranging from meditation, Yoga, group fitness sessions with our awesome PT Rawson, breathing and mindfulness techniques, to massage treatments and exploration of the incredible landscapes Tasmania has to offer. Our knowledgable and flexible team, mixed with our boutique sized retreat group means we can tailor the retreat experience to suit your needs as it happens.

We allow you space to sink into the experience.

Going to plan, in consideration of current events, our next Move&Relax Retreat will be held in Swansea, Tasmania towards the end of this year. It will be the perfect post lockdown getaway within Australia Explore, take in fresh air and reconnect after what was most likely a challenging first half of the year.

After years of playing basketball and undergoing an ankle reconstruction, Jeanette moved from Tasmania to study Remedial Massage in Brisbane.

Sarah first found Yoga looking for a way to counter the stress of a busy life and real estate sales career and like many of us, trying to find a balance between the two. As a long distance runner training for half and full marathons, she found the extra strength and flexibility gained remarkable as well as assisting with recovery times and preventing injuries. In fact, she found that Yoga and meditation assisted in all areas of her life, greatly improving anxiety and self healing and very quickly developed a dedicated practice.Sarah was drawn to the teachings of Eoin Finn and Insiya Rasiwala-Finn of Blissology who both have a strong appreciation for nature and connection weaved into their teachings. Completing her training and since assisting on facilitation of teacher training programs underneath Eoin and Insiya in Bali, she enjoys teaching a strong Vinyasa flow with a focus on connecting all parts resulting in ultimate health.
