Fitness & Wellness Desert Escape

A retreat to achieve balance in your life in Arizona

Completed April 6-10, 2017

Fitness & Wellness Desert Escape

A five-day fitness and wellness escape where you'll live life to the fullest with carefully crafted workouts in the mornings and nights, exciting adventures into the mountains, and time to rejuvenate on the resort grounds. You'll leave knowing how to work smarter, not harder, and feeling refreshed and ready to head back to the real world!

The fitness:
Each day will bring a new challenge with a different fitness focus, testingyour strength, cardiovascular level, mobility, and flexibility, giving you a hands-on experience. You will be educated about the importance of each experience in order to achieve your fitness goals, no matter what they may be, in addition to working on breathing and relaxation techniques. 
​
The retreat:
This retreat is all about balance: both high and low-intensity workouts, thrilling excursions paired with downtime at the resort, challenging your mind while also letting yourself truly relax in a gorgeous setting.

In between workouts, you'll enjoy a group hummer expedition into the Phoenix desert & mountain areas and hiking along trails near the resort. You can choose among a number of optional activities too, such as hot air ballooning, horseback riding, shopping, spa treatments, and tee time on the golf course.
