Reset body and mind with a fitness focused getaway

Affordable Wellness Retreats are more available than you might think, especially if you travel to Canada. Not only will the dollar exchange rate give you more value (one dollar American is about 1.25 Canadian usually), the investment has many healthy returns. Bring back your energy, reboot healthy routine, lose weight, find that adventurous spirit that perhaps feels lost after the past two years of pandemic. It’s time to get back to creating the memories that have been robbed from us, from the monotony of lockdowns.

From yoga-focused fitness Retreats with plant-based nutrition, to hiking wellness retreats – there’s lots of styles to choose from. Here at Cat Smiley Boot Camp, we’ve put together the best things from USA and Canada’s fitness retreats. Then merged them into our own affordable wellness retreats operating as a small business in beautiful British Columbia.

Bali-inspired rainforest retreats

Wanderlusting about getting unplugged and detoxing – everything – with beautiful surroundings. Popular picks for a lush wilderness escape are in Bali, Cambodia and Ecuador. These award-winning eco-conscious health resorts offer affordable wellness retreats with traditional healing and Ayurveda cuisine. Yet while the allure of tropical islands might seem ideal, you can hike in rainforests without leaving the continent. We guide daily hikes at my wellness retreat in B.C. in the gorgeous coastal temperate rainforests, with old-growth trees alongside the Pacific Rim. They’re similar to what you’ll find in New Zealand and Chile.

All-inclusive wellness resort offering weight-loss programs

Venture to the sunny coastal beaches for a well-established fitness retreat program. Cat Smiley Boot Camp has shared many clients with those who have traveled to the States – Florida and California especially. Beach boot camps and fitness classes such as yoga and water sports are combined with healthy eating, camaraderie and fun events. Joining a wellness retreat with bigger groups in attendance can give your health vacation a social boost.

Glamping yoga holiday

If you only have a couple of days and are looking to reconnect with nature while being active, check out glamping options. There are many short-stay yoga retreats that offer bohemian lodging style, often near rivers and fairytale forests. They offer yoga classes, canyon hiking and restorative treatments such as massage. Usually there’s a campfire, healthy food and rejuvenating conversations with likeminded people.
