Who comes on this type of holiday?

Women of all ages show interest in this type of retreat, as do couples, and sports people who want to learn how to reduce injury through Pilates while having fun and relaxing. If you are a group interested in booking, please let us know as we can organise dates and a schedule fitted to your needs. Beginners are welcome and no previous Pilates experience is necessary.

If you are advanced in Pilates, you are taught advanced options to keep you challenged and stimulated. This holiday is perfect for anyone who wants to feel pampered and learn the great benefits of Pilates – in short, have a relaxing and energising holiday all in one! This one-week intensive course is equivalent to 2 terms’ worth of weekly Pilates classes.


What type of Pilates will you learn?

Each daily two-hour session focuses on building up the exercises, using the Body Control Pilates Method. By the end of the week you will be able to coordinate the moves of the class in a flowing session that will challenge your fitness and stamina. Different options are available so you can work at a level that is comfortable for you.

Each session includes 20 minutes of relaxation and meditation. We go over the basics from day one and you will have information from the website as well as recommendations of DVDs to use in your practice. We will also be sending you a exercise programme after the retreat to keep you on track and motivated in your exercises.

Testimonials:

"I returned to the UK from travelling with a lower back injury and was not able to find a treatment to relieve it until I contacted Rosa.   I wanted to make sure that I chose a good pilates instructor as I did not want to aggravate the injury further.  I knew as soon as I picked up[ the phone to call Rosa that it was a good decision.  She has such a positive attitude and with her medical background I felt I was in good hands.  As I was completely new to pilates I had a one to one session with Rosa which I found to be extremely beneficial as it gave me a good understanding of pilates and Rosa tailored the session to suit my injury so I was able to apply this in the group sessions.  My back has improved no end and I am so pleased, also my general fitness and wellbeing has improved, not forgetting to mention the inches lost!  thank you Rosa!"

About Köyceğiz



(click here to view Pilates Retreats photo album on Facebook)

We have found an oasis of calm in Koycegiz, a small lakeside town with stunning views of the mountains , set among orange orchards and olive groves. The family run Rose Garden Hotel, which has hosted retreats for many years, is within walking distance to cafes, restaurants and shops, also only 25mins from Dalaman International Airport.

The region is steeped in history, including the ancient city of Kaunos, with its rock tombs and amphitheatre. The thermal spa at Sultaniye, with healing waters and mud baths, is perfect for natural pampering. Köyceğiz Lake is linked to the Mediterranean Sea by a natural channel, so beautiful beaches are only a boat ride away.

The large fresh water lake is a haven for wildlife and turtles are sometimes seen while sipping an evening glass of wine in the cafes and restaurants that line the water’s edge.



Optional Activities

Visit to Köyceğiz market (Monday morning). 
Swim and relax in a tranquil waterfall only 20mins from the hotel. 
Evening trip to Sultaniye to relax in the thermal baths and mud spas overlooking the lake.  Highly recommended for lifting emotions and complete physical relaxation. 
Visit a local village, followed by a 2hr trek through the mountains.  Late lunch at the village is provided by locals with their home-grown produce.
Turkish evening at the hotel with traditional food and entertainment (belly-dancing!).
All-day boat trip returning at 7pm.  Stop to relax on beautiful Turtle Beach, later passing the ancient ruins of Kaunos to then enjoy the thermal spas and mud baths of Sultaniye.  Optional Pilates on the beach.  Lunch is included. 
Early afternoon trip to Beybasi, a local beauty spot.  You can lie in the sun, walk, swim, or explore.  Simply relax, sleep and drink wine in the cushioned area of the laid-back Penbe restaurant, one of the best in the area.  We love it here so much - we’re sure you will too!
