Joyful Genius Retreat with Anne Rose Hart
FLOW MASTERY coaching retreat for self-actualizing women January 27 – February 2, 2019 (6 nights) Join Anne Rose Hart, founder
Our St Lucia retreats help reconnect people with nature, each other and themselves.
Many of our retreats are wellness – centered, focusing on Detox, Nutrition, Mind/Body healing, Yoga and Fitness. Other popular group events include Art and Photography workshops, Archeology field schools, University Courses, Cultural exchanges, concerts and weddings.
We can sleep between 9 and 14 retreat participants in 9 separate rooms spread between 6 cottages. For groups, we typically offer an all inclusive package which includes meals, activities and excursions. Yoga classes, workshops, massages and other therapies usually take place in our beautiful rustic historic barn. Classes and wellness services can also be booked year-round, individually, or as a package!
Josephine Russell will be bringing her yoga students to Balenbouche after visiting the estate last year (Josephine is a friend of a good friend who lives on the island). We look forward to hosting the group and providing the ideal setting to deepen their practice whilst explore the island and everything that the South of St. Lucia has to offer. As of right now, the retreat has already sold out, but there may be more retreats hosted by Josephine in the future! 🙂
Wake up to the sound of ocean waves brushing the shore in Laborie, St. Lucia.
The air is warm, the sun is gentle, and for the first time in a long time — you have nowhere to be but here.
You roll out your mat beneath the trees. Your breath slows. Your shoulders soften.
This is your space. Your pace. Your healing.
Days are filled with grounding yoga, healing waters, lush island food, and the soulful rhythm of Creole culture.
One evening, you sway under the stars to live jazz, your heart wide open and full.
This is more than a retreat — it’s a return.
To your body. To your joy. To yourself.
Annual Retreat!
This is one of the St Lucia retreats hosted every year by Mary Monrose Elke, who was the very first yoga teacher to host a retreat at Balenbouche Estate! Mary is from St Lucia and London and we have known her for over 20 years!
Deepen your practice of yoga and spend time with yourself and others in a spiritually aware (but not religious) atmosphere. An important aspect of this retreat is the chance to participate in karma yoga, or the creation of a co-operative, clean and helpful environment for the group. We encourage all participants to remain on the extensive and fascinating grounds of the Estate during the yoga retreat. Group outings will also be organized.

We can sleep up to 16 participants and offer very competitive local rates! Please contact us for further information.
