Barre & Balance: Portugal

Ocean House, Ericeira

Thursday 9th October- Monday 13th October 2025

Escape to the sun-drenched cliffs of Ericeira for a 4-night/5 day retreat that blends movement, music, and mindful indulgence. This is your time to reconnect—with your body and the simple pleasures of life and create new connections.

Each day will include energising barre and fitness classes led by Em, designed to challenge and uplift; surrounded by ocean air and nature’s calm. But this retreat is more than just workouts—it's about balance, joy, and community.

You can take from the long weekend whatever you need, however active or relaxed that is!

You’ll enjoy:
✨ Daily barre, strength-based fitness sessions and stretch
🎶 An evening with live music under the stars
🍷 Tastings of natural wine from local vineyards
🍽 Nourishing, seasonal meals prepared with love
🌿Lots of moments to simply unwind, as well as multiple optional excursions

Whether you're coming solo or with friends, expect a soul-stirring blend of movement, relaxation, and celebration—all set in the laid-back beauty of Portugal’s surf coast.
