About this Retreat
Hi! I’m a Brazilian transformational healer with over a decade of experience guiding embodied, therapeutic, and performance-based processes that invite deep connection and authentic expression. I'm a Psychologist and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Specialist, with a BA in World Performance from East15 Acting School. I’m also a Certified Yoga Teacher. Over the years, I’ve learned to hold space with humour, depth, and heart, trusting intuition and original expression as pathways to healing and transformation. My alchemy weaves together the artistic languages of theatre, music, dance, and writing with therapeutic modalities I’ve cultivated along my healing and artistic journey. Through my retreats, workshops, and programmes, I hope you feel a sense of authenticity, sisterhood, creativity and alignment.
Details of this retreat
In the ALCANADA RETREAT, you will experience artistic and therapeutic practices that will bring you back to your HEART CENTRE.
By the sea of Mallorca, we will foster a safe container and supportive sisterhood. This Retreat offers the best scenario for you to slow down, connect to nature, open space for transformation and unleash the original expression pulsing inside of you.
Healing here will happen through a journey of authentic exploration of movement, artistic & therapeutic practices and energy work. This is an embodied integrative experience, based on the knowledge of yoga, music, dance and psychology.
The alchemy of such coastal atmosphere, music, dance and authentic guidance will ignite the inner flames of what only you can express in the world when you allow your inner wisdom to emerge from the feeling of returning HOME to you.

"Isabella brings light laughter, emotional intelligence, psychology, music, dance and much, much more to this 4-night retreat. Within this space, she makes people feel safe, loved and heard - her love and energy for the process is infectious and within hours, a group of multi-generational and multi-international women who started as strangers are thrown into an exciting and challenging journey of transformation. Isabella's care, sensitivity and thoughtfulness wove a wonderful witery web which empowered us to face our fears - was so carefully and thoughtfully crafted we hardly knew it was happening. And thanks to Johnny, our delightful chef!"

"I partook in Isabella's retreat to reflect on my past experiences and find some sort of closure to old stories. I was welcomed so warmly and Isabella was an incredibly kind host. The group dynamics were so smooth and everyone was showing a kind heart. From start to finish we were able to rely on Isabella's guidance and support. I truly value her life insights and therapeutic approach. Throughout the retreat we got to know our hights and depths and were presented with wonderful tools for self healing. I'm grateful for the shared time, fun atmosphere and care received!"

"I signed up thinking it was a yoga retreat and pleasantly surprised that it was more. My thoughts were to go with the flow and I'm glad I did. I am grateful that you provided a safe space to let my guard down and everyone did the same. The activities were unusual for me, but well orchestrated. They helped me release some tension and open my mind and heart to possibilities. The environment, the great food and the beautiful weather was just a magical combination. We are all so different yet united. I could feel the energy of all the amazing women. It was a beautiful experience from start to finish. [...]"

"I absolutely recommend this retreat. This transformation journey helped me in ways I didn't even know I needed. I felt so much support, sisterhood, safety, connection and inspiration. All the women that I had the luck to share this journey with were amazing in every way. This retreat changed my life forever. I will carry this experience for the rest of my life with so many lessons learned and my heart very full of love. It was very healing. And thanks so much to Isabella for all her hard work, dedication and creativity to make all of this possible. She is such a ray of light and kind soul. I felt the love in everything. And thank you Jonathan for the amazing food. Such a great team. I felt at home. I plan to come again someday."

"My 4 days at the Alcanada Retreat went beyond any expectation I ever had. It was a truly magical time in which I met sisters for life. Isabella is extremely professional, profound and creative in her craft. She took us through a beautiful journey in which we truly got to uncover our true selves and begin radical shifts within ourselves. I am walking away with life skills and a path which has been uncovered through this fantastically organised journey. The house itself is in the most beautiful place, and the delicious vegan food cooked by Johnny was impeccable. I cannot recommend this special retreat more! It truly was transformative. Thank you Isabella for giving me the power to embrace my feminine power!"

" [...] On the last day, I already felt different from the day I arrived. I feel this experience unlocked the first important step for the shift I was desperately longing for. Isabella is one of the kindest human beings I've ever met. She can make you feel at ease and safe, even in the most discomfort. She provides guidance and a safe space for you to let go. Nothing is forced; everything comes up naturally, with every activity, one step at a time. [...] "
