Pilates Retreats & Holidays

Pilates retreats focused on strength, flexibility and mindful movement

Pilates holidays offer a focused way to improve strength, posture and flexibility through structured, expert-led practice. Designed for all experience levels, these retreats combine daily Pilates sessions with time to reset, restore and reconnect with your body in a supportive environment.


Whether you’re new to Pilates or looking to deepen your practice, a Pilates holiday provides space to move with intention, build body awareness and step away from everyday routines. Programmes may include mat-based Pilates, Reformer Pilates, or a combination of both, depending on the retreat.

Why Choose a Pilates Retreat?

Core strength and stability: Build a stronger, more balanced core to support posture, alignment and everyday movement.

Improved alignment: Refine posture and body awareness through controlled, precise techniques with guidance tailored to your level.

Greater flexibility: Enhance mobility and joint health with sessions adapted to your ability and goals.

Accessible for all levels: Programmes are suitable for beginners through to experienced practitioners, with classes adjusted to individual needs.

Inspiring settings: Practise Pilates in calm, restorative locations that support focus, relaxation and physical confidence.



A Deeper Focus on Movement and Wellbeing


A Pilates retreat offers the time and space to concentrate on movement quality, breath and alignment without distraction. Daily classes are typically complemented by nourishing cuisine and optional wellness therapies, supporting overall wellbeing alongside physical progress.


The emphasis is not on intensity or performance, but on building strength, control and confidence in a way that feels sustainable and transferable to everyday life.


Pilates retreats differ from broader wellness holidays by placing structured Pilates practice at the centre of the experience, with programmes designed around movement quality rather than general relaxation



Who Pilates Holidays Are For


Pilates holidays are well suited to those looking for a structured yet supportive way to improve strength, posture and body awareness through regular, guided Pilates practice. Whether you’re new to Pilates or looking to deepen your existing practice, these retreats provide the time, focus and expert guidance to progress at your own pace in a calm, restorative setting.



If you’re considering a Pilates holiday, we can help you find a retreat that suits your experience level and goals.

Many retreats combine both approaches to provide a well-rounded practice.

Who can attend a Pilates retreat?

Pilates retreats are suitable for all experience levels, from complete beginners to more established practitioners. Sessions are generally adapted to different abilities, allowing guests to progress at their own pace, whether they are new to Pilates or looking to refine their technique.
