She quit her job in the international media field and started traveling to Mysore, India, to practice with her teacher and Guru, Sharath Jois. That´s where following her heart decided to create “Balearic Retreats” and bring some of the Mysore Magic to her home island, Mallorca, to later expand it to many other countries.

Wim Hof Instructors:
Luke Wills
Wim Hof Method – Oxygen Advantage – Art of Breath
Luke’s search for self improvement led him to travel the world to train with some of the best trainers in their fields and has taken him on some amazing adventures, from diving in the depths of the Andaman Sea, to training Thai Boxing for a year in Thailand and climbing Mt. Sniezka in Poland in the middle of winter wearing nothing but a pair of shorts.
All of this experience and training has taught him that we are capable of much more than we think, and that to find true health and freedom we must master both mind and body. Through breathing, movement, meditation and above all re-connecting to our natural environment we can awaken our innate potential to be happy, strong and healthy.
