WHAT IS OUR SUMMER RETREAT AND WHO IS IT FOR?
Set on the shores of Lake Lipno in the heart of the Czech countryside, this 6-day summer retreat is a unique blend of fitness, wellness, outdoor adventure and deep recovery, designed specifically for adults who want to feel strong, energised and inspired.
Based at a luxury lakeside hotel resort, this retreat combines structured training with education, exploration and rest. Expect a week of purposeful movement, open water swimming, breathwork, yoga, watersports and other outdoor challenges - all balanced with spa time, beautiful food and space to relax.
This is not a Bootcamp, and it’s not a passive wellness holiday. It’s an intelligently designed experience where you’ll learn why you train the way you do, how to support longevity as you age, and how to build resilience, both physically and mentally, while having genuine fun.
From daily lake swims and paddleboarding to hiking, rafting, mountain biking and downhill scooters, every activity has intention behind it. You’ll leave not only fitter and refreshed, but clearer on how to move, recover and live well long after the retreat ends.
Adventure, education and connection all in one unforgettable summer week.
THIS RETREAT IS FOR YOU IF...
- You feel stuck in routine and crave adventure again.
- You want to train smarter, not just harder.
- You love fitness, outdoor swimming, watersports or the idea of trying them.
- You want a healthy holiday that energises you, not one you recover from.
- You’re curious about cold exposure, breathwork and longevity.
- You want to feel strong, capable and confident in your body.
- You’re ready to try something new (e.g. rafting or downhill mountain scooters!).
- You value good food, beautiful surroundings and a touch of luxury.
- You want fun, friendship and meaningful conversations.
It’s for individuals, couples and friends who want more than just a break!
If you’re:
- motivated but slightly bored of your current fitness regime…
- fit but unsure if you’re training the right way for your age…
- stressed but not fully switching off…
then this week is designed for you!
You don’t need to be elite. You just need to be open.
Training, Nature and Challenge - Designed to Work Together
This retreat combines intelligent, inclusive training with the powerful natural setting in the hamlet of Dolní Vltavice. Every session is fully adaptable for all ages and ability levels, with a focus on confidence, long-term health and sustainable progress, not competition.
Across the week, varied training styles create balance and progression. You’ll experience higher-intensity intervals to build cardiovascular fitness, lower-intensity aerobic work for endurance and recovery, resistance training for strength and bone health, and restorative yoga to support mobility and nervous system regulation. Intensity, movements and rest can always be adjusted so you can meet your body where it is each day.
Breathing underpins everything. You’ll learn how to use different breathing strategies to manage effort, recover faster and move more efficiently, making the benefits transferable to everyday life.
The landscape shapes the experience, guiding a natural rhythm between effort and ease. Challenging activities like hiking, biking, rafting and downhill scooters raise heart rate and spark adventure, while the lake supports deep regulation through cold-water immersion, swimming, paddleboarding and contrast therapy.
True to the Wim Hof spirit, the retreat also includes challenge - stretching your comfort zone, creating shared moments and reminding you just how capable you are.

Testimonials from our other retreats:
Katie from Malvern:
“This is so much more than techniques for breathing and cold exposure. It is mindset training; strengthening your brain and you will come away feeling energised with strategies to achieve all round wellbeing and performance. I would also say the coaching is very unique. I’ve done tonnes of corporate coaching sessions with all sorts of companies but non of them had the depth or sincerity of the instructors Charlie and Radek”.
James from York:
“I took SO MUCH from the mentality part of the weekend, far more than I thought I ever would! I came to the weekend knowing I couldn't walk 1km through a village from a river in barefoot, and I knew I couldn't hold a plank for 5 minutes. Turns out I was wrong!
“I have (for the first time since I had kids, 7yrs!) actually taken stock of my life, asked myself difficult questions and given truly honest answers. You've helped me recognise I wasn't being kind to myself either, working hard but not enjoying the fruits of the labour, so I didn't think twice spending the rainy day money on a wooden cold plunge barrel complete with chiller and filter, for 2 degree water all the time! It comes in 4 weeks! I've been telling everyone that asks how the weekend has changed me, and it sounds daft saying it out loud because no one would have expected me to say it, but it has, so thank you!"
Ellis from Sheffield
"The key takeaway from the weekend was that I learned I can authentically be myself without judgment from others. I was made to feel safe the whole weekend with a fantastic group of people and the most wonderful instructors.
Go and do it with open arms! The amount of soul enlightenment you will come away with is like nothing else. You will be smiling from ear to ear."
Gav from Sheffield
“It will change your worldview immeasurably - embrace the positivity and learn how to utilise your natural power anew. You won't regret it. Was well beyond my expectations”.
Joe from Essex:
“I was already aware of the WHM and its benefits. It was extremely helpful to see an instructor duo that had the marriage dynamic as an extra USP, offering a unique guided experience. Loved the mix of WHM along with general breathing techniques and life/motivational advice for better well being.
“The questionnaire about our own life situation and the thought going into the cacao ceremony (letting go & aspirations) dove tailed amazingly well into the core WHM principles. Will definitely be incorporating this in my own classes when I have qualified”.
Phil from Sheffield
“Thank you for such an excellent weekend, I really enjoyed myself and learnt such a lot. I didn't know what to expect from the weekend and, to be honest, I was a bit sceptical, so I was delighted with the course and so pleased to meet so many like-minded people.
“I found the breathing techniques really worked for me and it is something I will practice in the future.
“The whole course from start to finish was well beyond my expectations”.
