This experience was truly something extraordinary. It exceeded my hopes and expectations in every way imaginable. Every adventure, every conversation, and every moment felt intentional and full of heart. It was as if we co-created a little bit of magic together on a black sand beach in paradise.
The trip was beautifully orchestrated from start to finish. Our resort was lovely and very accommodating. Montana led our group with such grounded clarity, with Catherine supporting every step of the way. They are both visionaries and their energies together created a week that felt seamless, meaningful, and unforgettable.
If you’re looking to fall back in love with life, to connect with incredible humans, and to feel genuinely seen and inspired, I cannot recommend a travel experience through The Retreat enough. I’m leaving with a full heart, new friends, and a sense of possibility I didn’t even know I was missing. I hope to return for more trips in the future and would absolutely recommend this travel experience to anyone.

Montana and Catherine's Collective Move and Flow yoga retreat was incredible. The connection we all felt during circle time was palpable. They both bring incredible energy and joy to their practice, which flows into those present. Sansara Yoga and Surf Resort is very remote, but that added to the specialness of the retreat. The spa treatments were some of the best I've ever had.
I would highly recommend taking any of Montana's yoga classes or Catherine's collective move and flow classes!

There are not words to describe this trip, the people, the amenities, where we stayed, everything was absolutely incredible. If you can do this trip, it is worth it 100 percent.

I recently returned from the most incredible yoga retreat, and I honestly can’t stop thinking about it! From start to finish, the experience was absolutely amazing. The instructors were warm, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about creating a space where everyone felt supported—no matter their skill level. Each session was intentional, grounding, and left me feeling more connected to myself than I have in a long time.
The atmosphere was pure magic. Peaceful mornings, beautiful scenery, delicious meals, and a schedule that balanced movement, rest, and reflection perfectly. I loved how the retreat encouraged both personal growth and community. By the end, strangers felt like friends and family.
I left feeling refreshed, centered, and genuinely inspired. If you’re looking for an experience that nourishes your mind, body, and soul, this retreat is absolutely the one.

This trip was amazing and a once in a lifetime experience I would recommend anyone interested in travel to take this trip at least once. Everyone we encountered from the staff at Sansara Resort, Drivers, Surfing instructors and Locals were incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. Everyone truly went above and beyond. Our retreat hosts Catherine Cignac and Montana Mitchell were also amazing and creative with the Collective Move and flow classes, activities and helping our group to bond not just with them but each other as well.

My experience with The Retreat in Pontresina, Switzerland was nothing short of incredible. Everything was so thoughtfully planned and organized down to the smallest detail, allowing us to truly relax and be present. The daily collective movement sessions in our stunning yoga villa were deeply healing and cathartic—exactly what I needed to reset both body and mind! The hikes through the Swiss Alps were absolutely jaw-dropping, with every view more stunning than the last. Also the food, 12/10 delicious with it being all locally sourced, such high quality! The group energy brought such inspiring, positive vibes that made the whole experience even more special. I left feeling renewed, grounded, and so grateful! I can’t recommend The Retreat enough to anyone looking for beauty, connection, and true rejuvenation! 💫💫💫

This was my first Retreat, but it definitely won’t be my last!! As someone who loves to travel, but does not enjoy planning, this was the perfect way for me to experience the beauty of Switzerland in the least stressful way possible. Everything was incredibly well organized, from booking flights/trains, to meals and daily excursions. Despite not doing a lot of yoga typically, I really enjoyed the daily yoga sessions with Catherine and Nicole. The hiking was amazing! The town of Pontresina was quiet and beautiful and not touristy at all. I absolutely loved our hotel and the attached pool/spa. The community aspect of the Retreat was everything I was hoping for. I truly have nothing bad to say about the trip. It was phenomenal. Looking forward to my next!
