Testimonials

I wanted to give myself some time to reflect, rejuvenate, and recharge my body and mind. I heard Porto is a lovely city, and the program at OM Academy sounds very well-rounded. I can choose from yoga, Pilates, some hardcore cross-fit training, and even a daily meditation session. It’s very comprehensive and exactly fits my needs. I feel my body has been cleansed well with the juice detox. I enjoyed the sweat and adrenaline from the body fitness training, while my mental well-being was also rejuvenated through the daily sound bath sessions. It’s a very balanced outcome that I wanted to achieve. Very grateful I picked the right program for myself. I had an amazing time at the OM Academy retreat program and the very lovely Porto city. From the moment I got an email from Rui sharing the schedule of classes to finalizing details of my 6-day program, Rui was there taking good care of everything. I didn’t need to feel anxious or worried when I was a solo female traveler exploring Porto City. All the instructors at the OM Academy are very professional and friendly, and they made it a fun experience for me even when I was new to some exercises like aerial yoga, bungee, Pilates, etc. I liked the meditation sessions on the hot marble floor every morning because I wanted my retreat to be focused on not only body fitness but also mental and mental well-being. The Sound Bath live concert by Elena was a beautiful caress to my mind & soul, I loved it. Overall, this six-day retreat was a wonderful experience for me. I truly enjoyed every bit of the program and also had some free time to explore the charming Porto city. A perfect trip for me indeed! Thank you so much to Rui (the founder/manager of OM Academy), Sandra (my great vibe aerial yoga & bungee teacher), Adriana (my super fit cross trainer), Ana (love her Pilates connector sessions), Mariana (love her soothing voice in guiding the yoga sessions), Mafalda, Nadia (who both gave me a good push & sweat their not easy workouts), and Melina (wish can learn a bit of pole dance from her next time)… every one of you had made my experience at OM Academy an amazing one. Truly enjoyed it. Thank you very much!

The facilities are very clean, spacious and comfortable. I tested most of the many courses and massages available and I enjoyed every time professional and motivated instructors that knew their art. I recommend this place without any hesitation. Thanks to Rui and all the team for a memorable week.

Ange, France

Fantastic holistic retreat! I needed a pause point to reconnect with myself and fully relax. Om Academy provided a perfect space in which to do this. I chose the Om Academy because it offered everything that I was looking for and is placed in a location that's easily accessible to the city centre and coast lime. I felt deeply nourished by the combination of yoga classes, sound healing sessions, massage and juice detox, and left the academy in a relaxed state that followed me home. Just book it. You won't regret it.
