FAQs
Who is it for?
ANYONE. But we would suggest enjoying moving your body, challenging your mindset and soaking up some sun in an inspiring, supportive environment.
We welcome all genders.
What level of fitness is required?
No ‘level’ of fitness is needed, our job as coaches is to guide you wherever you are and however you are feeling. Even if you have niggles or injuries, come along! All will and can be altered to make it the right amount of challenge for you.
What if i’m on my own?
It makes no difference. Come solo, bring a friend or make new ones here.
What’s the cancellation policy?
To secure your place on the retreat, a non-refundable deposit is required at the time of booking. This deposit is non-refundable under any circumstances.
Any additional payments made after the deposit are refundable up until 30th September 2025. If you choose to cancel for any reason after this date, we are unfortunately unable to offer a refund.
However, we understand that life happens — so if you’re no longer able to attend after September, you’re welcome to transfer your space to someone else. If you personally find a replacement to take your place, we will fully honor the transfer at no extra cost.
We strongly recommend having travel insurance in place to protect your investment in case of unexpected changes.
Who’s coaching?
Oaks & Sean. With over 30 years in the fitness industry between them, you’re in good hands. We have created this retreat because Lagos is a place that we have always loved visiting, and simply you cannot beat some good training and last minute sun to see you through the winter months.
What isn’t included?
Flights & Airport transfers.
(flights to Faro Airport)
Our hope is that enough people from Flow want to come along, so that we can help people to arrange shared transfers and shared car hire from Faro airport (which is very cheap, especially at this time of year, this also gives you access then to head into Lagos itself for a chance to experience the epic brunch and coffee culture there- HIGHLY recommended).
Where You’ll Stay
We’ll be staying in a stunning private villa. Tucked away in a peaceful, secluded spot just 2 miles from the heart of Lagos. Surrounded by nature but close to everything you need, it’s the perfect base for rest, recovery and recharging between sessions.
This 4-star retreat space is packed with features to make your stay unforgettable:
A private indoor and outdoor pool for both workouts and wind-downs
A fully equipped games room for evening fun and downtime
A small on-site gym area for mobility, skill work or solo training
Multiple chic living spaces and cosy corners for reading, stretching or relaxing
Outdoor sun loungers and shaded chill zones — ideal for catching some late-season Algarve sunshine
Spacious bedrooms in a villa designed for comfort, connection and calm
Just a short walk to the local beach and a quick trip to our fully kitted-out fitness facility
This villa is completely private — meaning the entire space is exclusively ours for the retreat. It’s more than a place to sleep — it’s part of the experience. Expect space, serenity and everything you need to train hard and recover in total comfort.
