Creative Arts Facilitator | British/Manx Artist
Ella brings over 10 years of experience in creative therapy and conscious living. Her warm, intuitive approach creates a safe space for self-exploration and authentic expression. She leads all creative workshops including drawing, printing, painting, Cyanotype, and storytelling, guiding transformative group experiences through diverse artistic modalities.
Wellness Facilitator | Yoga & Meditation
Nadine is a qualified yoga and meditation practitioner. Movement and wellbeing have shaped her life from a young age, informed by early experiences with body image, nutrition and the powerful impact of how we care for ourselves. These lived experiences sparked a lifelong commitment to supporting the body, mind and soul through joyful, accessible movement. With a background in performing arts and decades of teaching experience, her approach is rooted in connection rather than correction. Her belief is simple: movement should feel nourishing, supportive and enjoyable. Participants can expect to leave feeling more grounded in their bodies and equipped with simple, sustainable practices they can carry into everyday life.
"This retreat completely transformed my perspective on creativity and self-expression. Ella and Nadine created such a nurturing environment where I felt safe to explore parts of myself I'd long forgotten. The combination of art, movement, and mindfulness was perfect. I left feeling renewed and inspired!"
"I was hesitant at first, but this was exactly what I needed. The daily schedule was perfect - structured enough to feel held, but with plenty of space for personal reflection. The venue was stunning, the food incredible, and the community we built was so special. I've made lifelong friends and discovered a new creative passion!"
"The breathwork and yoga sessions with Nadine were profound. I released emotions I didn't even know I was holding. Ella's creative workshops helped me express things I couldn't put into words. This retreat is truly a gift to yourself. Worth every penny and then some!"
"From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and cared for. The attention to detail was incredible - from the beautiful accommodations to the delicious meals. But what really made it special was the energy and intention Ella and Nadine brought to every session. I'm already planning to return!"
"This was my first retreat and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. As someone who thought they 'weren't creative,' I discovered a whole new side of myself. The small group size meant personalized attention, and the facilitators truly care about each person's journey. Life-changing!"
"The magic of this retreat lies in the perfect balance of structure and freedom, activity and rest, guidance and self-discovery. The location in Portugal was breathtaking, and waking up to those sunrise meditations was pure bliss. I came home with new tools, new friends, and a renewed sense of purpose."
"At 70, I wondered if this retreat would be right for me - what absolute nonsense that thought was! Nadine and Ella created such a joyful, welcoming space where age simply didn't matter. I laughed, I created, I moved my body in ways I hadn't in years, and I felt completely alive! The group became like family, and I surprised myself with what I could do. This retreat reminded me that it's never too late to try something new, explore your creativity, and step into your light. Already counting down to the next one!"
