A blissful 4-night Ibiza escape to reboot your body, relax your mind, and replenish your soul

Join us on a 4-night, Reformer Pilates Retreat at the secluded, luxury villa, Can Verru. Set in an idyllic rural location near the west coast of Ibiza with its world-class white sandy beaches, expansive blue skies, turquoise seas, and hidden coves just a stone’s throw away. Beautifully renovated in a traditional style with heaps of character, every room is styled to perfection and bursting with character spread across the main villa and a Moroccan-styled cottage.

Each day will offer a specially designed Reformer Pilates programme, with up to 3 daily classes led by London-based Pilates and fitness expert Catherine Riding. To take your retreat experience to the next level, we also have many other exciting activities planned for you - an immersive sound bath experience, Pilates on a stand-up paddle board and coastal paddle session, a complimentary full-body massage, coastal hikes off the beaten track to visit Ibiza’s hidden treasures, sunset picnics, plus the opportunity to learn self-massage techniques to ensure you can continue your self-care routine back at home. Me-time is deliberately factored into your retreat fostering a wonderful sense of inner clam. You can enjoy indulgent afternoon naps and deep, calming, restorative sleep in magical surroundings.

A well-kept secret venue of those in the know, Can Verru is truly a unique, spacious, and, importantly, very private and peaceful villa. Its exclusive setting and luxurious design make it a favourite holiday hangout amongst those in the know. Set in an acre of rural rustic farmland which has been beautifully landscaped, the tranquil gardens provide plenty of space to relax and chill out in either the sun or shade. Ibiza’s famous citrus trees grow abundantly in the villa’s orchards, and you are welcome to pick from them. Fabulous views over coastline abound!

When you’re not indulging in your Pilates passion, you can enjoy a refreshing dip in the beautiful pool, relax away lazy afternoons in the hammocks reading a good book, or explore the stunning landscape on one of the numerous local hiking trails surrounding the villa. You’ll dine on sensational plant-based vegetarian cuisine prepared by our private chef who loves to create conscious menus that excite people and transform lives. Each evening will end with a sensational al-fresco feast, sharing stories and laughter whilst watching the awe-inspiring, iconic Ibiza sunsets.

>> WHAT’S INCLUDED?

  • Luxurious shared or private accommodation at luxury villa Can Verru

  • Full-board, highly nutritious, delicious plant-based/vegetarian menu created by our private chef. All the food is locally sourced and organic whenever possible. We’re talking about a nutritious self-service breakfast of chia bowls, homemade granola, Greek yoghurt, fresh fruit, bread, avocado and variety of nut butters. A hearty but light buffet brunch with lots of salads, fresh fruit, cheeses, free-range eggs, delicious homemade sourdough, a sit-down evening 3-course supper, plus a celebratory final night meal.

  • Minimum of 2-3 daily reformer sessions catering to all abilities, including a nourishing restorative stretch class and a HITT-style workout using the jump boards. - but remember, you can participate in as little or as much as you want! There are a maximum of 8 people in the reformer classes for optimum attention.

  • A bespoke 60-minute massage treatment (worth £100) with a highly trained, experienced massage practitioner to ease you into the retreat. 

  • A deeply relaxing sound bath experience. One of the oldest and most natural forms of healing, sound can positively affect our entire being—and when the bowls are played, the body and brain shift into a deep, meditative, relaxed state.

    A 2-hour private SUP experience on the nearby world-class Cala Bassa beach with its white sandy beaches and hidden coves. You will be guaranteed a giggle practising Pilates on an anchored paddleboard—taking your core strength to the next level—and then we’ll paddle the enchanting coastline with our guide. Includes all equipment, a lesson (previous experience not required!), and lots of photos for your insta account!

  • A stunning, hiking route to the highest point in Ibiza, Sa Talaia in San Josep. From the top of the mountain, the views are incredible, even on a cloudy day. On a clear day, with 180-degree visibility, you can see all of Ibiza, as well as other Balearic islands in the surrounding sea. San Josep is a pretty village with lots of local artisan shops to have a browse in after our hike.

  • Access to hiking trails, coastal walks and beautiful, dreamy beaches and coves within minutes of the villa.

  • A fascia release class with Catherine during which you will be expertly guided through a self-massage sequence using small balls to roll out and release any lingering tension in your body.

  • Complimentary coffee, tea, herbal teas, fruit and nuts are available throughout your stay.

  • Blue skies, incredible sunsets, bright sunshine, good vibes, great company, and laughter!

  • Evening flight home? Why not join us on a coastal hike to Atlantis and see the magical island, (and insta favourite) of Es Vedra  - a final drink together reflecting on your experience before catching your flight home?

  • As a wellness retreat, we want you to leave feeling physically and mentally in optimum health and as such encourage you to abstain from alcohol during your stay.

>> OPTIONAL EXTRA ON DepaRture Day

Getting an evening flight home? Why not join Catherine on a hiking trip to Atlantis?

Atlantis, not just a secret place but a truly magical spot in Ibiza, is best known as Ibiza’s hidden gem. To reach a place like Atlantis, you have to earn it. You can’t just get there and enjoy diving into that surreal spectacle, without sweating a bit!  An old sandstone quarry, extracting the rocks created a majestic natural wonder. The cuts in the stone left crazy asymmetrical walls and deep gaps that become natural pools when filled with seawater. As much as I try to describe it, and even seeing the most beautiful photos, nothing truly compares with the feeling you get by being there. Walking through the surreal landscape is like an interactive, massive artwork that you discover as you wander around. It’s a challenging hike, but it’s so worth it! Afterwards, we enjoy a delicious lunch at one of Ibiza’s famous beach clubs before heading to the airport

Please be aware the hike location may vary. Any costs for a hiking guide, taxis and lunch etc are additional to the retreat cost.

This Reformer retreat is all about making you feel fantastic

But don’t take our word for it! Here’s what other people have to say about their retreat experience:

Just wow! What a heart-warming, body-toning, mind-clearing trip. Where do I sign up for next year’s reformer retreats?
— Jen
I returned home from this Pilates reformer retreat warmed in mind, body and soul. Absolute bliss.
— Aimi
Very fun and friendly retreat! The reformer sessions were amazing with lots of individual attention and technique instruction. There was a great balance between Pilates sessions, local hikes and rest and relaxation. Catherine’s fascia release session was blissful - I have never slept so well! I loved it and will definitely be booking on to the next one!
— Ros
I have just returned from my first reformer Pilates retreat in Ibiza with Catherine. It was absolutely amazing, clearly so much time and thought had gone into making this retreat the best few days. Jam packed with brilliant reformer classes plus additional extras like hiking, massage, breathwork, fascia release, sound bath and excellent food. There was still plenty of time to chill out round the pool and relax too. Met a great bunch of people who all got on so well. I will definitely be returning next year. Thank you so much Catherine. xx
— Sarah
The Ibiza retreat was a fantastic experience! Catherine is an amazing Pilates instructor, the Villa was stunning and the food delicious. I am already booked for next year!
— Nelly
Nobody knows more about Pilates than Catherine and nobody has a wider arsenal of motivational and teaching skills to help you identify and tone muscles you didn’t even know you had! She’s inspiring, knowledgeable, approachable and fun and her Pilates retreat was truly great. Venue was terrific, delicious, healthy food and warm hospitality. And access to Catherine for a whole weekend with a small group enabled my Pilates technique to really improve
— Lisa
Catherine’s Pilates retreat was much more than I expected. The classes were excellent, and adaptable to all levels. The villa was stunning, food was amazing and so much thought was put into the additional activities that were included. I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Ibiza and can’t wait to go back next year.
