THE MOVEMENT VILLAGE
A RETREAT BY AMOVEMENT CLUB
Over the past few years, we’ve traveled the world with a clear purpose: to weave together the pillars that define our lifestyle. Immersing ourselves in nature and culture, embracing movement in its different forms, and savour healthy meals crafted from fresh, local ingredients. Through these experiences, we’ve been seeking the perfect balance, a way to unite these elements into a retreat where we can share this philosophy and celebrate it with our community. This vision is the essence of our second retreat of the year in Gran Canaria, Canary Islands.
Join us on a retreat that will redefine and transform your way of travelling. An experience where fitness, culture, wellness creativity, nature and community come together.
Set against the scenic beauty of Gran Canaria, our retreat offers a transformative experience that blends empowering calisthenics and handstands sessions, restorative yoga, powerful breath work, exciting surf and sail boat adventures, scenic hikes in nature, star gazing and calming sound bath.
A week crafted to ground you, awaken your senses, and refocus your goals with intention.
All of this takes place in a warm and welcoming environment, open to all fitness levels and abilities.
Immerse yourself in a supportive community where you can exceed your own expectations, both mentally and physically, while enjoying a well-deserved escape surrounded by likeminded people, away from the demands of everyday life.

AMOVEMENT VALLEY
Guayedra is a hidden valley on the Northwest coast of Gran Canaria, a magical valley by the sea, where we'll be surrounded by volcanic cliffs, palm groves, terraced gardens, a glowing sunset beach, a saltwater pool, and a tennis court.
Spread across four tranquil eco-villas, the space blends traditional Canarian architecture with modern, sustainable design. Each home is thoughtfully built into the landscape, offering panoramic views of the valley, the Atlantic Ocean, and the estate’s own farm, fruit trees, and animals.
It’s a space that feels both grounding and elevated with large windows and private terraces, inviting you to rest, reconnect, and tune into the natural rhythm of the island.
LOCATION
Reset and reconnect in the heart of a biodynamic farm that embraces sustainability and organic practices.
THE FOOD
All meals will be made fresh daily using locally sourced, organic ingredients, including freshly baked bread and homemade goods.
FAQ'S
LOCATION
Why Gran Canaria?
Gran Canaria is a magical island with year-round mild weather, volcanic landscapes, lush valleys, and pristine beaches. Known for its biodiversity, rich culture, and incredible local produce, it offers the perfect setting to slow down, reconnect with nature, and recharge.
What will the temperatures be like in September?
The weather in September is ideal (our favourite season to visit), with daytime highs reaching around 29°C and cooler evenings ranging from 20°C.
ACTIVITIES & SCHEDULE
What is the daily schedule like?
The schedule might vary slightly but see above Monday and Tuesday's sample. Once your booking is confirmed, the full weeks schedule will be shared with you a few weeks ahead of the retreat.
Do I need prior experience for activities like yoga, surfing, or calisthenics?
All activities will be adaptable to beginner, intermediate and advanced levels. If you've attended our training clubs, you know everyone is challenged differently during our sessions and everything is adapted to all levels. This will be the same for any activity in our schedule.
Are all activities mandatory?
Not at all! Participation in activities is entirely optional. If you choose not to join a specific activity, we kindly ask that you let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly.
Will there be free time to relax or explore?
Absolutely, days are long and around activities, plans are entirely optional so you can also relax or enjoy and explore independently. We're lucky enough to be in a beautiful valley with plenty to do all within 10 mins, including a beach walking distance from our villas.
TRAVEL & ACCOMMODATION
Are flights included?
Flights are not included, once you purchase we would love it if you can share the details with us so we can best prepare for your arrival.
Can I share a room with a friend or partner?
Absolutely! In fact, sharing a room as a duo or group offers a more favorable rate per person as you'll each receive a £50 discount.
How far is the villa from the airport?
Usually 45 minutes - 1hr drive.
Do you provide airport transfers?
Yes, we offer both airport transfers and car rental options.
Is a car rental needed?
The valley is located in a remote area with no public transport. Therefore, renting a car offers greater flexibility, allowing you to explore the local hidden gems and other areas of island in freedom. This is why we also encourage car rental sharing for those who wish to enjoy greater independence during their stay and are happy to share the cost. If you’d like to share a rental car with other guests, please select this option under "EXTRAS" when completing the booking form and we will make a list and connect everyone.
FOOD & DIETARY PREFERENCES
What meals are included in the retreat?
Daily breakfast, lunch snack and dinner are all included. On Wednesday 24th is when the sailboat excursion will take place and we will have lunch in the sailboat and dine in one of the local restaurants each covering their own meal.
The idea of the lunch snack is to have a light meal that can be taken with you if you have activities etc.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions (e.g., vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free) or any allergies?
Absolutely! When you fill in your booking form please be as precise as possible so we can cater to your needs.
Will alcohol be available or allowed during the retreat?
We will not cater for alcoholic drinks as the aim is to spend this time developing healthy habits, feeling good and promoting a week of well-being.
