What our previous guest are saying

Beatriz - Portugal '24
It was such a great experience! Nicky is kind, funny, and an amazing yoga instructor. She created a beautiful atmosphere and it was a super healing, warming and heart-melting experience!
There was enough time to relax and connect with the other women, and different activities that were super fun, like rollerskating!
I definitely recommend it to anyone that is looking for a wholesome experience. -
HELLY - PORTUGAL '24
From yoga and surfing to hot tub hangs, deep chats, rollerskating, and a lot of napping, it was the perfect holiday to reconnect with my inner child.
While the weather was unfortunately not with us, Nicky went above and beyond to make us feel grounded and still have so much fun! I’m so grateful to have connected with such a wonderful group of women.
The highlight? Rekindling my love for roller skating, something I hadn’t done in over 15 years! I might not have been the steadiest, but with the Patrizia’s help, I found my balance and learned some cool moves and tricks. What a trip! I'm feeling so grateful for Nicky and the memories I'll keep for a lifetime! -
PATRIZIA - PORTUGAL '24
I had the best time ever at the Innerspace Retreat in Portugal! Nicky is an amazing teacher and person. She put in so much love in every detail: the location & food, all the activities, the different lessons & workshops and also the people.
I have never been to any retreat before & definitely wouldn‘t have expected to leave with such a full heart, recovered soul & a bunch of new friends.
