Retreat Location: Portimão, Algarve
The largest city in the western Algarve, the port town of Portimao has morphed from a thriving fishing hub into a charming and typical town of Portuguese life.
The closest beach is only a 15 minutes walk away from our Ana Ana house (Praia da Rocha).
Nearest airport: Faro (only 52.1 km away).

Meet your coach: Eva Eulenstein
I am Eva. A global citizen with German and Spanish roots. Since spending a social year in Brasil after high school, I have a deep connection to the Portuguese culture and visited Brasil and Portugal many times. I cannot wait to show you my favorite places in the beautiful Algarve.
As a Certified Professional Co-Active Coach (CPCC), I support empathic women with lots of clarity and courage to break free from the traditional 9 to 5 hamster wheel and to create a fulfilling out-of-the-box work life.
I am creating this retreat to offer you a safe and inspiring environment to finally meet face-to-face again, build a supportive tribe, and create lots of incredible memories.
Everything I organize has a personal touch and comes with lots of heart and positive intention.
Here you can find out more about my personal story and professional journey.
Meet your yoga teacher: Berta Couto
Hi, I am Berta. Originally from Portugal, I traveled a lot and became a yoga teacher in the motherland of Yoga, India, where I deepened my practice of Yoga and knowledge of Ayurvedic medicine.
My teaching style is the result of a symbiosis between my own regular practice of Yoga, years of traveling around Asia and Central America, and my experience as a nurse.
At the moment, I dedicate my lifetime teaching Yoga and working as Ayurvedic Therapist in Portimão, following the path of Unconditional Love.
I am a true believer that through the regular practice of Yoga, combining it with contact with nature, it's possible to make life a seed of what we would like to see grow in the world inside and out of us.
I look forward to creating a unique, healing experience with you!
