SPECIAL GUESTS
KATE BOUVERIE
Kate is a talented and experienced retreat chef, who folds love and care into all she creates, both in the kitchen and in daily life. A keen yogi and meditation practitioner herself, Kate knows intuitively and at first hand what retreat guests are looking for in the meals they receive on retreat.
Her aim is to provide nourishment in the form of healthy, delicious and nutritious meals, prepared with love and beautifully presented, using seasonal, sustainably and ethically sourced, local and organic whole ingredients wherever possible. She even brings along ingredients foraged from the English hedgerows or harvested from her allotment if seasonally appropriate!
Kate’s consciousness in the kitchen translates into food which is not only full of flavour but also bursting with Prana, and guests frequently comment that they can taste the love that has gone into Kate’s dishes. She strongly believes that food should taste good, look good and make you feel good, and she hopes that guests will leave feeling nourished, nurtured and inspired to eat well. Kate has lived and worked in Egypt, and has travelled to India and Europe being fascinated by traditions, ideas and food from around the world.
LEILA DAVIS
Leila has an Advanced Clinical Massage (Level 5) qualification from the highly acclaimed Jing Massage School in Brighton. She originally has a background as a Yoga and Fitness instructor so has always had a keen interest in anatomy and physiology as well as mindfulness and movement principles.
Leila offers Clinical and Holistic Massage aimed at relaxing the whole body and helping to ease any tightness whilst providing a full relaxation massage using a combination of Eastern and Western massage techniques along with trigger point therapy, myofascial release, sports massage, therapeutic massage and acupressure point work.
Leila has an understanding of chronic pain patterns, and understanding these helps to relieve clients' specific areas of muscular tension and discomfort. Amongst other holistic health benefits, clinical and holistic massage particularly improves mobility, increases range of motion and loosens tight muscle tissue. By improving blood circulation and increasing drainage to these areas, it can allow the release of toxins and bring nutrients to the affected tissues.
She believes massage is one of the most ancient healing arts in the world and believes you don’t have to have a specific physical problem to have a massage; it is not only beneficial for tired or tense muscles but also for one’s general state of mind. A massage can be tailored to a person’s specific needs, taking into account general health and well-being, as well as any specific injuries or problems.

I spent one week in Ibiza with Alexa with a small group of like minded, fun loving Yogis, of all levels. Alexa is a truly inspirational, helpful, knowledgeable and fun teacher. Having not practised yoga for sometime, I was a little apprehensive initially, but Alexa soon allayed all my worries, by just being lovely, very calm, accepting and relaxed. This is not saying she didn’t stretch us to all our individual abilities! The retreat was beautifully situated, spacious and comfortable. The food was energising, healthy, varied and very tasty. I really could not have asked for more (maybe more time there??) it was perfect in every way - amazing teacher, Great company, Great accommodation and food and the sun shined on us = heaven. Thank you - would love to do it all again and again…….
I met Alexa in Ibiza on her 2018 yoga retreat. She immediately put me at ease with her calm and easy-going energy. She is a wonderful and knowledgable yoga teacher. Having practised with the same yoga teacher for the last 2 years, I was apprehensive about starting with a new teacher. Alexa's style of teaching suited me down to a tee. During her sessions, I was able to quieten my mind and connect with body and breath. I left each session feeling rejuvenated and with a deep sense of peace. The beautiful setting was an added bonus! I am so glad that I went on her yoga retreat as it truly opened me up to a new and invaluable experience
I’ve just returned from a week in Ibiza with Alexa. Simply can’t recommend her teaching enough. I attended with a small group and had a wonderful time, having tried to return to yoga for some time I have come back inspired and recharged. Alexa teaches in a way that encourages and supports each person to develop their yoga practice. I just had a fantastic time, a lovely group, lovely food and a very comfortable retreat.
Alexa's classes are well planned out, fun and engaging and Alexa is a generous teacher with so much to share. Over the years, I have become a regular at Alexa's yoga workshops, retreats and one-to-one practice and look forward to continuing my journey with her.
We had an amazing week in Ibiza with lots of yoga, meditation and pranayama. Alexa pays a lot of attention to the details of your poses and to you personally. I felt very at ease and peaceful during the week.
