Pilates & mobility retreat - Sri Lanka

What if the year started by the ocean, in Sri Lanka?

Elise and Cassie created this retreat as a real break from everyday life. Not just a few days of Pilates, but an experience designed to put movement, the body, and well-being back at the center.

Set in a villa by the ocean, away from the noise and usual pace of daily life, the retreat is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself.

Cassie’s classes will be at the heart of the experience, combining Pilates, mobility, and movement, inspired by her own practice and background. Each session is designed to work the body deeply, build strength, release tension, improve mobility, and most importantly, help you reconnect with your body.

The goal isn’t to do more, but to move better, listen to your body, and leave with tools you can bring into your everyday life.

A few days of ocean, movement, warmth, and rest to start the year differently — with more energy, more clarity, and a better connection to your body.

A reset that stays with you long after you return home.

Cassie

Cassie has been a professional dancer and acrobat for over 15 years, with a deep expertise in movement.

She has danced at the Crazy Horse, performed with Cirque du Soleil, and worked with many people through Pilates and mobility.

Now based in Biarritz, she shares an approach to movement shaped by years on stage, performance, and a deep exploration of what the body is capable of.

And that’s exactly what she wants you to experience during this retreat.

Accomodation & Rate

A house facing the ocean, surrounded by tropical greenery, where each bedroom has its own private bathroom, whether you choose a solo or shared option.
Here, you wake up to the light over the sea, begin the day at the rhythm of the sun, and end it with sunset views. Between the pool, the garden, the ocean, and the open living spaces, everything invites you to slow down, breathe, and fully enjoy the present moment.

The house is located in Godauda, on the south coast of Sri Lanka, just a few minutes from Hiriketiya Bay, known for its turquoise waters, surf, and laid-back atmosphere. A little further along are Galle, Tangalle, Mirissa, and the great natural parks of the south of the island.

Sri Lanka brings a very special atmosphere: warmth, abundant nature, palm trees, the Indian Ocean, long stretching days, and that feeling of living outdoors from morning to night.

A few days to shift your pace, move, explore a little, rest deeply, and enjoy the simple things.
