Ich hab bei dem Yoga und Surf retreat in Ericeira teilgenommen und war total begeistert. Isabel ist super organisiert und nett. Ich hatte ein geteiltes Zimmer und habe total nette Frauen kennengelernt. Das Essen war auch gut! Kann das Yoga und Surf Retreat in Ericeira sehr empfehlen!! Ericeira ist super süß und es fühlt sich an wie Australien Bondi Beach in Sydney!!

Isabel was the perfect guidance and company to our company’s team building on the beach. ?️We had an energizing yoga class, followed by a delicious and healthy picnic and a workshop on healthy habits and priority setting. We all left more relaxed + with tips on how we can improve our working habits ? Thanks so much!

Isabel has outdone herself with the Art of Connection Retreat. The energy of the group was fantastic, a mix of ages, combined with the variety of activities we had was wonderful. Even from the very first full day I was already releasing tension, looking and feeling more relaxed. I felt challenged throughout with a deep analysis and reassessment of my inner self and I also felt truly connected to both nature and my fellow attendees. The location was stunning and the all inclusive nature of the retreat meant incredible food prepared by an excellent chef, everything was taken care of with some time for exploring thrown in for good measure too. It was such a great experience I would highly recommend to anyone.

I attended Isabel's yoga and surf retreat and I have to say it was life changing. I came with few expectations and the certainty that I felt stuck in life. In just one week this mindest completely shifted. I learned a lot about my body and mind and also met the most amazing women. With her retreat, Isabel has created a safe space in which you can get to know yourself anew and really build a deep connection to yourself and others. I was able to get out of my comfort zone and at the same time experience peace and serenity. After the week, I went home inspired and full joy. The retreat took place in an incredibly beautiful accommodation by the sea and the best and freshest food was served every day. The days were well structured. It was a stunning overall concept which I would recommend to anyone.

Whether you are looking for more clarity and success in a business context or in your private life, Isabel is the right person for you.

Thank you so much for this amazing experience!

From the very first session with Isabel, I felt a deep and transformative change within me. Each teaching and practice she provided was not just a learning experience but a true milestone on my journey of self-discovery and healing.

I never imagined it would be possible to express and release everything that had been accumulated in my body and mind. Through her loving and wise guidance, I was able to unlock emotions and traumas I didn’t even know I carried. Her holistic approach allowed me to look inward with compassion, embracing all parts of myself that were once hidden or repressed.

The sessions with Isabel are not just a form of support, but a path to total transformation. Today, I feel more aligned with my true self, more at peace, and more empowered to face life with a renewed perspective.

I wholeheartedly recommend this journey to anyone seeking true transformation. There aren’t enough words to describe the positive impact she has had on my life. I will be forever grateful.

With Love,
Rita Serra

We had a very nice accommodation close to the beach in a small and nice town close to Lisbon. Isabell (founder and an absolute sunshine) really put a lot of effort into the whole schedule and has created a very positive and thoughtful environment for all of us. Fresh and healthy food three times a day, morning yoga and meditation session + she has found a very good surf school for us - highly recommended ?

I recently completed the Yoga Teacher Training and I am absolutely thrilled with my experience! The entire training was exceptionally well-organized and provided a deep, enriching experience. I especially want to highlight Isabel, who was my yoga instructor, organizer, founder of Monkey Mind Retreats and an incredible support throughout the training.

Isabel's teaching style is not only professional and well-structured but also inspiring and warm. She has a unique ability to convey complex concepts in a simple and understandable manner, and her passion for yoga is evident in every class. Her ability to cater to the individual needs of each participant made the training particularly valuable for me.

Under Isabel's guidance, I not only expanded my knowledge and skills in yoga but also found a deeper connection to my own practice. She created a wonderful balance between theory and practice, which helped me reach my full potential.

I highly recommend this Yoga Teacher Training to anyone looking to deepen their yoga practice and learn more about the teachings and philosophy of yoga. A huge thank you to the entire team and especially to Isabel for this transformative experience!

5/5; for everyone who needs a time out from the busyness of life and reevaluate their path.

I spent 7 days at 'The Art of Connection' retreat in Ericeira, Portugal with MonkeyMindRetreats.
Guided by Isabel, we were taken through powerful yoga and meditation sessions, as well as introspective workshops focused on discovering purpose, reigniting passion, and breaking through limiting beliefs.

This retreat wasn't just about winding down-it was about reconnecting with myself and gaining deeper insight into what drives me. The lessons I learned - about finding clarity in stillness and surrounding myself with truly inspiring individuals —have been invaluable.

So grateful to Isabel and the incredible people I met for their wisdom and support. Looking forward to bringing these lessons into my everyday life and to my next retreat! Absolutely recommend. ❤️
