Joy and Jamie hosted an incredible retreat in a beautiful setting with wonderful food. The retreat was thoughtfully planned and included yoga for pikleball preparation and recovery, as well as some fun and technical flows that helpped me get into postures and transitions I had never dared to try before. Jamies instruction was clear and accessible for all levels, from beginner to experienced yogi. This was great because our group contained a wide range of skills. We got to flow inside the accomidation and outside in the well manecured gardens, amoungst the birds and bunnies. This was one of the highlights for me. When it came to pickleball, Joy clearly has a gift for breaking down technique and strategy. Her skills and approachability made improving my shots and understanding the game easy. After each session, we had time to play and integrate our new skills with feedback from Joy, which was really helpful. Both Jameis's and Joy's approach to building community amongst guests, along with their playful nature, made going to this retreat alone not feel lonely at all. I am grateful for meeting many new people and having time to get to know them better during downtime, visiting the local market, and enjoying communal meals on the deck and in the gardens. Now, I have to shout out the private chefs who curated an incredible menu, which shone. Every meal was a delight, catering to vegetarians and vegans and not at the expense of meat-eaters. The very kind and sweet chef couple even whipped up an incredible sandwich to take care of a few of us who were contemplating going into town for lunch. Every meal made me wonder what I have been doing with my life, and why I have not been eating this food. I cannot recommend this retreat enough; it really hit all the bases. Thank you, Jamie and Joy.
