Blending movement, relaxation, nature and exceptional food, our retreats bring together the best of luxury wellbeing in a warm, welcoming environment where everyone belongs.
About Heidi – Founder & Lead Teacher
With over 10 years’ experience, Heidi is a Bikram-trained yoga teacher and the owner of Hot Lotus Studio in Manchester. She specialises in the Bikram series and Inferno Hot Pilates, discovering hot yoga while recovering from injury and experiencing first-hand its transformative benefits. Inspired to share this with others, Heidi completed an intensive 500-hour teacher training in Thailand and has been teaching since 2015.
Heidi was the first teacher in the UK to introduce Inferno Hot Pilates, training in the USA with creator Gabriella Walters. Further qualifications in Barre, Aerial Yoga and Pregnancy Yoga have shaped her inclusive, down-to-earth approach. Her passion is creating supportive, non-intimidating spaces where beginners feel confident and experienced practitioners feel inspired.
Luxury Wellbeing Retreats – UK & Abroad
After hosting a number of successful UK retreats, Lotus Retreat Experiences is now expanding to carefully selected overseas destinations. Each venue has been personally chosen for its beauty, comfort and sense of calm – from peaceful countryside locations to sun-soaked escapes in warmer climates.
We work closely with Louise from the Travel Counsellors group, ensuring your booking is secure, protected and stress-free, so you can relax from the moment you reserve your place.
