There's a particular kind of quiet that only exists in a snow-covered landscape. The way sound is absorbed by it. The way the cold makes you feel completely alive.

These retreats happen in the far north, where winter is properly winter: frozen lakes, snow-laden forests, skies that do extraordinary things after dark. Not the kind of place you'd usually think to do a yoga or wellness retreat. Which is exactly why we go there.

 

retreats in the arctic...rEALLY?

Yes, really. We know, it's not the obvious call. It's further than you'd usually go, colder than you'd usually choose, and way beyond your comfort zone than most holidays dare to take you. And yet, here you are. Good decision.

Because then you get there. The silence of a snowshoe trail. The absurd joy of steering your own husky sled through a frozen forest. The shock of an ice plunge followed by the enveloping heat of a lakeside sauna. The sky doing something after dark that you didn't quite believe was real. The yoga that somehow makes perfect sense in the middle of all of it. The feeling of being genuinely, properly looked after.

I highly recommend Reclaim yourself Retreats! I have been on 3 so far and definitely plan to go on more. All the details are taken care of and the locations are always amazing. The instructors/hosts are so awesome too. I just got back from Iceland, incredible!

From start to finish, my experience with Reclaim Yourself Retreats in Jordan was unmatched. The food was incredible, the people were warm and welcoming, and every activity was thoughtfully planned. Honestly, it was perfect. Every detail was taken care of, so all I had to do was show up and soak it all in. If you've been thinking about Jordan, go with Reclaim. I can't recommend them enough.

I came away from the yoga retreat in Jordan feeling genuinely grateful for the experience. I appreciated the warmth of the yoga teacher and the sense of community within the group.I found the retreat deeply rewarding. It gave me a chance to pause, breathe and experience Jordan in a very different way. Jools Sampson worked with some amazing local experts on the ground and the people were certainly one of the most memorable part of the retreat. I left having made some wonderful new friends and shared experiences that I will remember for a long time. Thank you Jools and James for having me.

Our second trip with Reclaim Yourself, and we’ve booked two more ! These retreats are exceptionally well run with an imaginative itinerary - our Jordan trip included stargazing, a ballon trip at sunrise and a desert camel rides. Quality of accommodation is excellent, with the emphasis on responsible travel and heritage properties from havelis in India to desert pods in Wadi Rum. Would highly recommend!

Reclaim's Mongolia Retreat was my first (a) Yoga Retreat and (b) Group Travel trip (& as a solo participant). Count myself lucky to be a Reclaim Alum & will be back for more! Jools & team did an fantastic job balancing the travel, trip-experiences & yoga across two magnificant destinations. While each of the 10 days flew by, the pace remained unhurried and I was able to fully engage through all the activities. I really appreciated how the team fostered a warm & friendly environment across the small group, and it was a truly lovely communal experience. Major shout-out to Kelly for the menu & food as well - I am not a vegetarian, but did not miss meat at all over the trip! Yoga with James was eye-opening as well, with the yurts providing a really grounding experience. We all received personal attention/modifications during the group classes that catered to varying levels of practice. Beyond the new poses & transitions, my foundation has really improved with his attention to micro-detail & expertise across breadth, movement & focus. Grateful to have been a part of this trip & massive thank you to Jools & James for the experience. 10/10. Highly Recommended!

I did the Mongolia retreat with James this year and it was excellent. Jools does an amazing job of combining a unique experience with an amazing yoga teacher. I can't wait to do another one with reclaim yourself!

Where we go

From Finnish Lapland to Svalbard's wilderness, these are the places that feel like the rest of the world doesn't exist. Cold, wild, cosy and completely out of the ordinary.

Finnish Lapland

Finnish Lapland is a world away. Snow-covered forests so still you can hear the quiet. Frozen lakes. Long Arctic nights where the stars are extraordinary and, on a good evening, the sky does something you'll never quite forget.

Days here move between the wild and the warm. Husky sledding through snowy wilderness, snowshoeing across open fells, and the deep ritual of sauna and ice dip on the edge of a frozen lake — which sounds alarming and feels incredible. Yoga woven throughout, meals that were made for exactly this kind of cold, and an experience that guests tell us changes something. No amount of reading about it quite prepares you. Some things you just have to feel.

svalbard

Further north than almost anywhere you can go. Svalbard in April is deep in its "Sunny Winter," with snow still thick on the ground, skies brilliant and clear, and daylight stretching long into the evening. One of the most remote places on earth, and one that very few people ever get to see.

Snowmobiling into untouched backcountry. Husky sledding across frozen valleys. Yoga. Ice caves. A floating sauna in the harbour. Evenings by the fire. Not your average week off.

A proper get-out-of-your-comfort-zone trip. The kind where you surprise yourself. And as anyone who's been will tell you, that's exactly where the good stuff happens.
