Testimonials

info

Attending Tony‘s awakening retreat was truly life-changing. What stood out most was how personal, heart-centred and deeply transformational every part of the retreat felt. Through the integration of breath-work, meditation, yoga and energy alignment, I experienced my body releasing long-held tension, my mind becoming calm and still, and my spirit settling into a profound sense of peace. Tony’s authenticity and compassion shone through every aspect of his teachings. He doesn’t just share wisdom - he embodies it. The retreat created a safe, sacred space where I felt seen, supported and uplifted. Because of this I left feeling clear, confident, aligned, uplifted and deeply supported. Learning the connection between the chakras and the body gave me practical tools to continue my practice long after the retreat ended. One of the greatest gifts was learning from the Buddhist monks. Their ancient teachings were simple, clear, practical and profoundly moving. I came to understand the importance of cultivating a clear mind to open the heart, leading to greater peace. I also learned the value of releasing negative past experiences in order to step more fully into a positive and peaceful life. Since the retreat, I have begun my mornings with slow, mindful walking - bringing awareness to my thoughts and recognizing how they shape every part of my life. Yoga and meditation together have helped me connect more deeply with the unity of mind and body, revealing how this harmony can shift both perspectives and emotions into a more positive state of being. I whole-heartedly recommend Tony’s retreat to anyone feeling the call to attend. It is not just an experience, it is a journey of awakening that you will carry with you forever.

Cathy Wernsing, USA

The Awakening Retreat far exceeded my expectations. Tony is a gifted teacher, deeply passionate about yoga, meditation, and holistic health. He went above and beyond to ensure every guest had a truly memorable experience. What made this retreat especially unique was not only Tony’s teachings and personal qualities, but also his connections on the island. Highly respected within the healing and spiritual community, Tony was able to open doors to unforgettable adventures and experiences that would otherwise have been inaccessible — and perhaps even invisible. I will never forget the amazing time I had and would highly recommend Tony and The Awakening Retreat to anyone seeking health, healing, and adventure.
