HUNTER VALLEY PILATES RETREAT
27th - 29th May 2022
The Hunter Valley Pilates Retreat offers a great country escape in the heart of the beautiful Hunter Valley. Thistle Hill Guest House is nestled amid 20 acres of gardens, native trees, dams and our own vineyard. The feeling is so tranquil and relaxing it is hard to believe you are only minutes from some of Pokolbin’s finest wineries, restaurants and attractions and right in the heart of the renowned “Around Hermitage” area which has become known for its boutique wineries and globally recognised restaurants. The Pilates Retreat is an ultimate dream location close to Sydney. Practicing Pilates in the countryside and away from distractions allows for even deeper focus of your individual movement practice.
Immerse yourself in Pilates, Workshops and Myofascial Release Masterclasses. The spacious pavilion allows for adequate air flow and space to enjoy your movement practice, giving you the space you need in these times.
Enjoy the solitude in a cozy spot with a book. Have a refreshing swim in the pool or explore Hunter Valleys world class vineyards. Do as much or as little as you choose.
This is a unique and intimate Pilates Retreat with only 16-18 spaces available. All levels are welcome and catered for.
