Do you find it hard to stick to a diet? Do those unwanted pounds creep back on as quickly as they came off?
As with all Sanda Retreats we aim to look at Weight Management from a holistic point of view, it is not just about your time here but we aim to help you continue to manage your weight from this point forward. Psychologically we look at any underlying issues that may be inhibiting you from achieving the body you are proud of. We aim to motivate you to make the necessary changes to achieve a healthy, wholesome diet that supports your body and makes it stronger, fitter and healthier so you can live the life you want.
TPhysiologically look at different types of food and show how they affect your body’s internal environment. Each and every one of us has a different body chemistry, it is important to understand ourselves better and know which foods and drinks aggravate our system and which are more suitable for us. Through educational talks and workshops and 1-1 sessions on the Weight Management retreat we aim to enable you to make conscious decisions about the food you eat.
Physically look at your body composition and work on increasing lean muscle mass and burning fat. Weight becomes irrelevant when your body tissues are in the right proportions to support your skeleton and internal organs, improve your posture and make your body strong, supple and mobile (not to mention lean and toned!). We combine a range of exercise techniques including yoga, power yoga, beach side fitness, cardio and weight training.
It is not advisable to do Weight management retreat if you are Pregnant or if you have Type 1 Diabetes. Also anyone with chronic or heavily medicated conditions may be asked to supply a doctor's letter verifying that they are fit to come on a retreat.

All integrated therapies for any disease or chronic condition do not guarantee a cure or remission from any illness.

«It is a pleasure to write this testimonial. My stay at the beach house has been such a great experience; I have benefited both physically and mentally. I felt really supported by the entire Sanda Wellness team with the help of the doctors, dieticians, therapists& staff and appreciated how each one of them contributed in helping me change my life for the better. The educational talks were fantastic, motivational and inspiring. The treatments and therapies were simply great and relaxing, and not to forget the beach house was simply amazing and beautiful overlooking the horizon, Many of us do think that a weight loss programme means heavy work outs, crash diets etc. but we are sadly mistaken, it’s just about learning to think right, eat right, and exercise right. To be honest, I do not follow a diet; I just eat healthy and do activities that keep me healthy. This retreat has taught me a new approach to health and given me a new approach to life. I do hope that many more people avail themselves of this great and positive experience. I’m glad I experienced it and I hope you do so!!!!! »
This has indeed been an enriching experience and I still continue to reap the benefits of what I have learnt at this retreat. It has been a privilege to be a part of such a well-defined program. I thank Kate and her amazing team for their guidance and counsel.»
