What Past Participants Say

This is the second retreat I've done with Michele. Both have been amazing. The best thing about it is the people she brings together. There's so much knowledge and wisdom in these groups! The first time I went into it thinking it wouldn't be hard enough, but I went home feeling sore in places I never knew had muscles. I learned so much about my body and its habits, and got a workout every morning. Michele has helped me heal a foot injury as well. I'm very grateful to her and to these retreats.

McKendree Key. January 2024

I attended Michele's exercise retreat as a gift to myself in celebration of my retirement and impending 75th birthday. Prior to the event I frequently told myself that if I couldn’t manage to work out twice every day I would simply allow myself to rest and then try again the next day. I’m very pleased to report that the workouts were so thoughtfully planned in terms of intensity and variety, that I didn’t need, neither did I want, to skip a class. Honestly I found the week to be one of the highlights of my life in recent years. Michele is a master of her craft. The women who attended were each fun, interesting and physical warriors! The location is superb, the food was delicious, the weather was perfect, the beach and water were clean and inviting and the staff at the spa are top notch. I cannot wait to return!!!

Kate Johnson February 2025

I have worked with Michele for 15 years and she has helped me through many stages of life: post injuries, pregnancies, motherhood- always with patience and care, and always pushing me to do more. Michele’s retreat I attended with my mother and sister was especially memorable. We left with our buckets full of friendship & community., and our bodies feeling STRONG. We will be back
