What Others are Saying...

"... My first impression was that the views were sensational, but they truly paled in comparison to Debbie’s teaching. I have been  practicing yoga for many years, and have been a Certified Yoga Teacher since 2015. Sadly, I have never mastered the art of Meditation. However, with Debbie’s guidance, I believe that with practice, I will be able to achieve this long-held goal. I cannot recommend this retreat highly enough. The location was magical..... This is a New Zealand “must do!"
