Our story in a nutshell
We have often been asked over the years by our retreat guests and by many of our clients how it all started for us.
It’s a long story, filled with love, adventures and happy coincidences - but here it is in a nutshell!
Our journey together began in 1992, when we met at a magical place in the Swiss Alps called Kiental, where we had come to study and expand our knowledge at the well known International School of Healing Arts. Here we learned many exciting and interesting healing modalities, including macrobiotic, vegan and vegetarian cooking, Shiatsu massage, macrobiotic healing home remedies, Oki Yoga, and the Oriental philosophy of Yin, Yang and the 5 elements and its practical uses.
We became inspired to study more and help others to learn and embrace this wonderful knowledge and lifestyle. We later travelled together to many European countries where we continued our studies and worked at Holistic Centres in beautiful natural settings.
After several years of adventures, we arrived at Kasia's home town in Poland, where her mum ran one of the first health food stores in the country, and pioneered healthy lifestyle education. We decided to stay here for a couple of years to help her with health education, and began to build a community of like-minded people which is still growing.
We were passionate about what we were doing and gave many talks and presentations at schools, universities, hospitals, and on TV and radio. It was a very exciting time, and we were not even aware that this was the beginning of creating our international community that continues to expand, many years later. Our adventure continued when we moved to London in 1997, where we set up our business of personal health coaching, cooking and healing treatments. We worked with many well-known celebrities, artists, professionals and corporate establishments. We loved working with people in the City, but we realised that they would benefit more from personal care and guidance in a beautiful natural setting, away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
This was the start of creating our Self-Care Programs and Wellness Retreats.
In 2003 inspired by Jamie’s father, a well-known artist and architect who lived in Ibiza, we started to run the first Wellness & Yoga Retreats on the island. We had visited Ibiza for many years before we started our retreats and were touched, inspired and moved by its beauty, history and energy.
Our passion for inspiring individuals and communities to embrace a balanced, creative and joyful lifestyle continues and has become even more precious in the times in which we are living.
We are here for you to take advantage of our experience and knowledge, and welcome you to join us for a healing holiday in our magical retreat settings.
