Weekend for retreat facilitators · El Valle Retreats

The space to make your retreat a reality.

A weekend gathering where facilitators come to Leisy's Garden as guests first — taken care of, inspired, connected — and leave with an actual retreat built, priced, and ready to sell, hosted by you here.

The workshop

It's a weekend gathering — two nights, Friday to Sunday — where facilitators come to Leisy's Garden as guests first. You get taken care of, get inspired, connect with each other, and leave with an actual retreat built, priced, and ready to sell, hosted by you at Leisy's Garden.

Retreaters Camp isn't a training or a course. It's the space where your retreat stops being an idea and becomes real — the place, the people, and the push to actually build it. Not a sales pitch dressed as a retreat. A genuinely good retreat that happens to end in a signed date on the calendar.

Retreat leaders, this one is for you

This workshop is for

Facilitators with an audience

You already have something — an audience, a niche, a following — but haven't run your own retreat yet, or have run one or two and want to do it properly.

Any leader who gathers people

Not wellness-only. Yoga teachers and breathwork guides, yes, but also coaches, artists, chefs, fitness trainers, creatives, and business mentors — anyone with a community ready to gather around what they teach.

Hosts who want a soft landing

You leave with a concept, a price, the tools to sell it, a peer network of other hosts, and a host-friendly way to book your retreat with us.

Questions, answered.

Round-trip transport between Santo Domingo (SDQ) and Leisy's Garden, all meals, a bed in a shared room, the experiences (hike, beach, bonfire), the creation and creativity workshops, the knowledge-sharing circles, mentors and facilitators in the room with you, the full toolkit, and the cohort's WhatsApp thread — kept open after departure.

How do I join?+

It's curated. Message us on WhatsApp or apply through the form — name, what you facilitate, whether you've hosted before, and why now. Accepted applicants get a confirmation with a deposit link, and the deposit locks the seat.

Is this a training or a course?+

No. It's a genuinely good weekend retreat that happens to end with your own retreat built, priced, and ready to sell — hosted by you at Leisy's Garden.

Do I need to have run a retreat before?+

No. It's for facilitators who have an audience but haven't run their own retreat yet, and for those who've run one or two and want to do it properly.

How do I get there?+

Round-trip transport is included from Santo Domingo (SDQ). We share the meeting point and time for Friday once you're confirmed.
