This is a guest post from Steve Hoyles; Personal Trainer & coach and the host of our Fit for Life retreat in October. 

Your desk will be a distant memory as you indulge in activities you’ve always dreamed of doing.

Get fitter and healthier, with a smile, as you work your cardio through fun and adventurous activities like surfing, cycling, and circuits, then bring the mind and body into calm and tranquility with yoga, meditation and deeply nourishing massages. All fueled by healthy and delicious meals…

Learn how to ignite this adventurous spirit into your life back home. One of the UK’s leading fitness experts, Steven Hoyle tells us more…

It’s rare that we really get to indulge ourselves in a truly positive way. A way that leaves us feeling fitter, stronger and healthier, yet completely relaxed.

The Fit for Life retreat is designed with exactly this in mind. The retreat is going to be a physical and mental recharge.

The retreat has been purposefully put together to create an experience guests wont forget in a hurry. Each activity has been selected to ensure you receive the perfect combination of exercise, relaxation and fun.

It’s a retreat designed with YOU in mind.

I want you to leave the Fit for Life retreat having exercised, relaxed, learned new things, enjoyed new foods and taken part in activities you wouldn’t normally have a chance to experience.

The retreat will be a combination of sun, fitness and fun – the perfect tonic to those dark winter nights.

The fit for life retreat is a chance for me to share with you my version of health and fitness.
It’s an approach that has helped change the lives of hundreds of people in person and thousands worldwide via my website and newsletter.

My approach covers all elements of health and fitness – strength, flexibility, endurance, nutrition and mental health. Living this lifestyle for a week will be your health and fitness recharge!

Azulfit is the perfect place to experience the Fit for Life retreat.

 Why?

My belief is that achieving true health and fitness isn’t binary, instead it’s a melting pot of approaches. This is the primary reason I wanted to work with AzulFit – our combination has allowed us to create a unique retreat mixing traditional exercise with expert Yoga and Pilates instruction.

As a retreat guest you’ll be staying in a purpose-built villa, enjoying three daily classes – two in the morning and one in the evening.

We’ll combine the strength and circuit training with relaxing, injury-preventing Yoga and Pilates classes taught by professional teachers.

Your nutritional needs will be more than met with an abundance of healthy, home made and seasonal food cooked on site by professional kitchen staff. This is your holiday – leave the cooking to someone else!

The mental de-stressing aspect of the retreat is covered with meditation classes and a complimentary hour-long massage, allowing you to totally unwind.

Despite the classes, I haven’t forgotten that the Fit for Life retreat is about fun as well as fitness, so guests will enjoy two days of surfing lessons with fully qualified surf instructors, as well as a guided bike ride that will allow us to explore more of the Island.
The rest of the time is yours to enjoy. You can lie on the beach, explore the Island, swim in the crystal-clear Atlantic Ocean or relax in the Villa gardens. The choice is yours.

Let us give you the fitness holiday of a lifetime.

The Fit for Life retreat at Villa Azul runs from 22^nd to the 29^th of October 2016. Prices start from €775. All classes, activities, most meals and massage are included in the price.
