October 20th – 22nd 2006.
Luxury does not always have to mean excess. The Aghadoe Heights Hotel & Spa in Killarney, have teamed-up with some of Europe’s most experienced health guru’s to create a unique retreat weekend – SAOL.
Saol is the Gaelic term for Life and this retreat is a celebration of life, fitness and health. The four-day experience featuring a blend of Yoga, Pilates and Aveda treatments along with guided hikes around the wonderful hills of Killarney will coincide with a full detox/cleansing & nutrition programme including delicious menus carefully prepared to rejuvenate and cleanse the body.
The Saol Team is an impressive one. Peter Roberts has been practising as a Sports Therapist and Pilates professional for 10 years and is widely recognised as the UK authority on Pilates. He trains a high profile client base including major celebrities (Madonna being one) and international royalty. Liz Lark has been teaching and running Yoga Retreats for 10 years and has written several books on the subject. She has worked with performers and artists including Ralf Finnes, Mariela Frostrup and Alan Rickman. Liz creates yoga sequences tailored to individual needs. Alan Wichert is a multi talented chef who qualified in Sydney in 1989, and since then has gained vast experience in diverse cuisines through travel in Europe and Asia. Fred Cabaz trained extensively in remedial and therapeutic massage and has developed a unique approach to his work following training in Chinese and Indian techniques. Fred also practices and teaches Tai Chi and also uses cranial osteopathic techniques in his treatments and works with meridians and energy flow to open up the body. Con Moriarty is a renowned local guide who will run hiking sessions on 2 days of the programme. Con is also a local historian and will entertain and charm each guest.
This all inclusive holiday will bring clients into a carefully balanced approach to physical, mental and spiritual well being and will be a learning experience where clients learn more about how to approach and integrate a better lifestyle. Clients will be welcomed by hosts Pat & Marie Chawke who have managed Aghadoe for 7 years. From here the team will take care of the guests, and schedules will be created for each individual so that the full experience of each activity can be enjoyed fully and safely.
The Saol Retreat costs €990 per person and includes 2 nights accommodation in a Luxury Lakeview Suite, meals, scheduled treatments and sessions.
