Memories of Retreat experiences
RETREAT WITH US
Vanessa is passionate about health, wellness, and helping others discover the many dimensions of yoga. Her retreats guide students through meditation, asana practice, mindfulness, restoration, and rejuvenation for the mind, body, and soul – all with the aim of cultivating inner peace, happiness, and balance.
Vanessa has led five international retreats to Bali and five major retreats across New Zealand, creating transformative experiences for students of all levels.
“To my wonderful yoga students who have joined my retreats, thank you. I feel so blessed that you spend your precious time with me and continue to explore your yoga and meditation practice. Yoga isn’t just on the mat — it’s in the choices you make, the love you hold for yourself, and the love you share with others. Namaste, Vanessa.”
Here is what some of our lovely students had to say about the Yoganess Retreats:
“Thank you for the opportunity to go to Bali — it truly healed my soul and helped me through the grief of losing my dad and all the life changing events thats has happened in the last year. You were absolutely in your element and glowing during the classes. I didn’t realise just how much this trip would impact me in such a positive way, but it really has. Thanks again, Ness.” Lian
“I just wanted to say thank you again for today, it was so relaxing and nice to pause and reset the mind and body. Your retreats are always so meaningful and a treat!” Ange
“Thank you for a lovely retreat today – it was so good to slow down listen and put some things into perspective.. and your delicious lunch was a treat!” Jacqui.
