105F Hot Yoga & Hot Pilates Retreat (D'Alijo Retreat Center, Portugal)

The 105F Hot Yoga & Hot Pilates Retreat is an eight-day hot yoga retreat in Northern Portugal, led by Kiley Enmark and Kelsey Jacobson of 105F. It takes place at D'Alijo Yoga Retreat Center in Casal, Vila Real, and it suits both beginners and seasoned practitioners who want to deepen their practice in the mountains, away from the pace of daily life.

What to Expect

The week combines hot yoga and hot pilates with vinyasa, yin and meditation. The heated classes bring heat and effort, while the yin and meditation sessions give the body and mind a chance to settle. The retreat is built as an 8-day immersion, so there is time to establish a rhythm of practice rather than fit a few classes between other plans.

Alongside the practice, the retreat includes time to experience Portuguese culture. The aim, in the organizers' words, is to reconnect and discover a healthier, happier you, with the stresses of home left behind while you explore and enhance your practice.

Kiley Enmark and Kelsey Jacobson lead the retreat together on behalf of 105F, the hot yoga and hot pilates brand behind the program. They teach the full range of styles on offer during the week, from heated yoga and pilates classes to vinyasa, yin and meditation.

The Setting

D'Alijo Yoga Retreat Center sits in the mountains of Northern Portugal, in the Vila Real area. The center regularly hosts yoga studios and visiting facilitators for retreats and teacher trainings, and this hot yoga and hot pilates retreat is one of the gatherings it welcomes. The landscape is part of the appeal: a quiet, scenic backdrop for a week of movement and rest.

Before You Go

No particular experience is required. The retreat is open to beginners as well as experienced practitioners, and the mix of hot, gentle and meditative sessions gives each person room to work at their own level. Anyone interested in a hot yoga retreat in Portugal, or a hot pilates holiday that pairs a full practice with a change of scenery, will find this a good fit.
