GBExcellent Pilates Classes I started Pilates with Claire because I was feeling a bit unstable when riding my horse and I’d had a few falls. Since joining the mat classes I have noticed a real difference in my core stability and all round strength and in my breathing regulation which has made a huge difference to my riding. I now feel more aware of my body and am able to maintain my position much better which has helped my confidence and my partnership with my horse, and this has helped me progress massively. I also feel healthier too and energised after each session. Thank you, Claire! I highly recommend x

GBThe best fitness retreat ever! The retreat was amazing! The whole process was planned perfectly! The location/villa was beautiful and spacious. Amazing meals were provided which were carefully planned out to ensure we ate healthy, got all the proteins and nutrients we needed for training and also very filling! The classes were good fun with the whole group and suited for everyone as you work to your own ability with the coach there to help you push harder to reach your goals. PT sessions were amazing & the yoga sessions helped you to stretch after all the exercise! You still also had downtime to do what you wanted or activities were organised for fun afternoons out with the team! The retreat really works, I lost 5.5lbs in the first 4 days! The vibes were good and always positive. Honestly had the best time and would really recommend this to anyone. Definitely will be booking again in future!

GBUnreal retreat! What an amazing retreat and amazing week! This was my first time on a retreat and I’m so glad I went, coach CG was able to provide informative and great coaching. The classes were really fun especially the beach HIIT class and the boxercise. Everyone was really friendly and welcoming and we were able to do whatever we felt comfortable with without any pressure. The food from chef Flo was 10/10 sensational, 3 meals a day and all so healthy, nutritious and tasty! I loved that everyone had different fitness levels and capabilities, yet coach Connor was able to cater to everyone. I loved the balance between fitness and free time, as after we finished classes we could do whatever we wanted and made it feel more like a holiday! The yoga and stretching classes were so relieving and fun after a hard work out, they were really relaxing to do as we did them first thing in the morning so we all felt fresh for the day ahead. Everything was well organised, from classes to meal time and free time, we all had an itinerary so we knew what training was happening each day and we could all pick whichever activity we wanted to do. The Villa was unreal, so beautiful and scenic, very spacious and clean! I really enjoyed this retreat much more than I thought, I can’t wait for the next one!! 10/10 definitely recommend to anyone! Overall an amazing team and experience, couldn’t thank the team enough and I’ve come home feeling refreshed and fitter than before! Also I loved the little touches, upon arrival as we received personalised training tops, loyalty members cards and healthy snacks around the house for everyone! Thank you CG fitness retreats, I can’t wait for the next one!!

GBAmazing CG Fitness Retreat The CG Fitness was my first fitness retreat abroad. As a mature reasonably fit person l was amazed at the amount of energy l got from all the exercises. Well planned out schedule Connor the PT trainer was there at hand to answer all queries regarding health and gave one to one personal training sessions. The group exercises were totally fun as you were inspired by others. On the flip side yoga was also added to the schedule so you could have a really good stretching session after invigorating gym session. We did core, abs, boxing, running, cycling, kayaking the list go on and on. The food was amazing all hand cooked from fresh natural ingredients by the amazing Flo The Chef. On the evening your time is your own to see the sights of Portugal as there are many things to do there. I would definitely recommend this trip with CG Fitness Retreat. Great bunch of people and l have walked away with life long gym friends. Connor the PT is an amazing thoughtful person who takes time out with you to explain what every exercise does to your body. Go try it and see you won't regret it.

GBAn incredible week!👏🏻🙌🏻 The retreat was amazing. Connor picked an amazing location and every day had an intinerary which was full of activities and lots of free time also which managed to make it feel like a fight camp and a holiday at the same time🤣 The Yoga/Stretching sessions with Glenda were very useful and great throughout the week. Flo's food was incredible from breakfast, lunch and dinner and he was very accomodating for any dietary needs people had. Connor was a great motivator in the group sessions and in the one to one sessions also, and in both you were able to push yourself with his encouragement and the encouragement of the group. My personal highlight was the (optional) run club in the mornings! Connor was great at organising excursions and activities outside of the Villa too, allowing us to explore Vilamoura and other places around Portugal. Overall, it was an amazing week and I will definitely be doing them whenever I can!
