I feel so blessed.

I hope the words in this review can express the depth of gratitude I feel for the Brejo Boyz and the incredible yoga retreats they created for me and my two groups of yogis from Colorado, USA. After working to reschedule this retreat for two consecutive years due to pandemic limitations and travel restrictions – the universe finally gave the go ahead – and we were able to have an incredible, transformative experience at Brejo Fundeiro far exceeding my hopes and expectations.

The soul of this peaceful farm in the Portuguese countryside is palpable. Upon arrival you are enveloped by the natural beauty of Brejo Fundeiro and the healing power of its serenity. Delicious and nutritious vegetarian meals prepared with love and care by the men who brought the property back to life, Keith and Torsten, was truly one of the best gastronomic experiences of my lifetime. I have led yoga retreats elsewhere in the world but I have never had such consistent and positive feedback as my guests’ reactions to this year’s retreats at Brejo Fundeiro. The bedrooms, bathrooms, and living spaces are gorgeous, airy and comfortable. The yoga shala is beautiful and makes you feel you are living in another century as you practice yoga in front of an audience of eucalyptus trees on the adjacent hillside.

The two weeks I spent leading back-to-back yoga retreats during this most challenging time in the world would have been impossible without the support, understanding, flexibility, selflessness, commitment, and sense of humor of my new friends, Keith and Torsten. I feel so blessed to have been led to Brejo Fundeiro, and that I was able to share the magic there with friends and family I love, and I cannot wait to go back! Attached to this review is an attempt to show some of the magic through pictures.
