"As my first retreat, the next one will have a lot to live up to.  Totally exceeded my expectations.  The Soulfood Team are amazing people and by the end of the week made us feel like one big family.  Wonderful experience from start to finish and I will be back!"  Anonymous retreat guest.  Retreat - Zakynthos, Greece, 2017.

"What a fantastic week with Soulfood London! The week of yoga and photography was everything I was looking for in a holiday: building on my yoga practice with the morning class, relaxation with the yin yoga in the evening, and learning how to use my DSLR. I've left the retreat now confident in using my DLSR in manual mode, invigorated by the yoga, and inspired to get cooking again after the food we were treated to at VIlla Zaharoula. Kate, Charlie, Grace & Daisy: thank you!"  Anonymous retreat guest.  Retreat - Zakynthos, Greece, 2017

"The retreat was wonderful and a lovely way to relax from London life. Charlie and Chloe are two of the most patient and wonderful leaders for a week. Charlie offers a fun, relaxed yoga practice and is always there to encourage you to have a positive outlook on life. Chloe is incredibly patient in inspiring/teaching you to take great photos given my technical ineptitude of using my camera, especially given I'd forgotten everything she had taught me the year before!

 

The venue was fantastic with stunning views, comfortable accommodation food and hospitality of a local family home led by Emma who looked after our every need without any hesitation.

 

I'd recommend going on a Sepia Lotus Retreat to anyone looking to get away with like minded people, to develop your yoga practice and learn how to take photos that will make your friends saw "wow" on your return."  James W. Retreat - Capo Vaticano, Calabria. Italy (19th - 26th September 2015)

"My second retreat with these inspiring ladies was even better than the first!  The daily yoga practice and photography tutorials were stimulating, educational, and engaging.  In addition, we were in a stunning villa, surrounded by beautiful nature, sea, and breathtaking views.  Put together, it created an ideal space to rejuvenate, de-stress, and fully disconnect from daily life!  Fantastic week!"  Dina G. Retreat - Capo Vaticano, Calabria. Italy (19th - 26th September 2015)
"Lovely week spent in idyllic location with like minded fun people, great yoga classes, amazing photography instruction and great food.  I 100% recommend Sepia Lotus Retreats to anyone looking to refresh and rejuvenate their body in a relaxed environment."  James W. Retreat - Zaharoula, Zakynthos, Greece (26th September - 3rd October 2014)
 
 
"As my main passion and drive for going on the trip was photography, I LOVED my lessons with Chloe!  She was such an inspiration to us all and helped me in particular to focus better with each individual shot.  Chloe is wonderfully passionate about photography and has a huge amount of experience which added much depth to her teaching!  She really knew how to communicate her ideas and made valuable suggestions to us all.  It was also nice to receive some one on one tuition and watch her take photos too!  I learnt a lot about how to use my camera (as I had never had a lesson previously) and she gave me a great base for my future business plans.  She was also extremely encouraging and creative and I feel that we all learned a tremendous amount through her.
"I was made to feel so comfortable with Charlie who really guided me through each and every step with clear and concise instruction.  I truly believe that Charlie has a natural gift and ability to teach because of her love for it.  Also it was so great to hear about her experiences in India - it really shines through her practice.  Charlie has a beautiful technique and has a very unique way of leading and guiding.  She’s a wonderful soul.
"I thought the villa was absolutely beautiful – the design, furniture, lighting and layout was fabulous and I really liked the room I was in once I joined the 2 single beds together!  It really was very warm and welcoming, thank you!
"I felt that the whole trip was organized and executed extremely professionally and I would definitely save up and go on another SLR retreat in the future."  Laura H. Retreat - Zaharoula, Zakynthos, Greece (26th September - 3rd October 2014)
 

 

"What an incredible week - I can't put into words how much I enjoyed it.  We were like one big family by the end.  Charlie's yoga classes were fantastic and so varied.  Chloe's photography lessons were brilliant and I learnt so much.  The villa was amazing and the setting so beautiful and I made some wonderful friends.  Thank you for such a wonderful week."  Hattie O. Retreat - Zaharoula, Zakynthos, Greece (26th September - 3rd October 2014)

"What a wonderful week in Zakynthos! The combination of the peaceful island, the beautiful villa, and the daily creative eye-opening classes made it a perfect retreat into serenity.  It is such a niche and unusual combination: yoga and photography, which really allowed me to have a week of daily yoga practice alongside learning a new skill!  Chloe and Charlie were full of energy and positivity, as did everyone else who came along, which made the week that much better! I look forward to joining Sepia Lotus Retreats in the future, as they are the perfect way to get away from life's daily hustle & bustle! Thank you so much."  Dina G. Retreat - Zaharoula, Zakynthos, Greece (26th September - 3rd October 2014)
