Details

The Rise & Release Retreat – Greece is a 7-night immersive wellness retreat designed to help you release stress and tension, reconnect with yourself, and create space for renewal. Set on the breathtaking island of Amorgos, this yoga retreat combines the strength and freedom of Aerial Yoga with the gentle depth of Yin Yoga, offering a harmonious balance of movement and stillness. Core Practices: • Aerial Yoga (Trapeze): Decompress the spine, build strength, and experience lightness. • Yin Yoga: Melt tension, release deeper layers, and encourage emotional ease. These practices guide you toward clarity, emotional freedom, and reconnection with your body and mind, allowing full immersion in this transformative experience.

These have included a weekend yoga retreat at Champney's & a trapeze yoga retreat in Spain, run by Jackie, both were amazing. More recently Jackie took a yoga session, in a Salt Cave. All I can say is wow, it was such a lovely, relaxing experience. Well done Jackie, you are one amazing lady x

I can’t recommend Jackie and Saffron Life Limited highly enough! Jackie is an incredible yoga instructor with a deep knowledge of yoga and yoga trapeze, which I absolutely loved. Her classes are not only engaging and fun but also thoughtfully tailored to individual needs. What sets Jackie apart is her expertise in supporting women through every stage of menopause. Her understanding and compassionate approach have been truly life-changing for me. She is so lovely, knowledgeable, and approachable, creating a safe space where I always feel heard and supported. I’m love Jackie’s lessons, both live and online, I had a brilliant time at her yoga retreat in Spain. If you’re looking for a skilled, empathetic instructor who genuinely cares, Jackie is the one! 🙏✨
