RADIANCE RETREATS TESTIMONIALS
“This was the best gift I could have given myself. I arrived exhausted, anxious and burnt out. It did not take long for my stress levels to reduce due to the excellent yoga and meditation, natural beauty, delicious food and beautiful treatments. I left invigorated and with a new perspective. I’m already planning my next retreat!”
Diana – Byron Bay Retreat
“My time in Ubud was a total re-set. The retreat gave me so much self-care. It invigorated my yoga practice under the excellent guidance of Jessie and Lee. My body and mind were released and lightened through nurturing massage, beautiful food, people and surrounds and the space to let things be.
Linda, 54, Yoga Teacher – Bali Yoga Spa Restore Retreat
“A transformational experience, balancing mind, body and soul. Jessie is a very intuitive yoga teacher and provides a nurturing space to relax and practice – along with the talented Radiance facilitators. An experience made very special by the amazing people I met.”
Hayley – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“The Retreat was amazing with wonderful yoga and relaxation surrounded by nature, lots of nourishing organic food and time for ‘just being’. I reconnected with myself and deepened my yoga and meditation practice. Jessie and her team are caring, supportive and always there to assist you. I feel clear, happy, positive, confident and rejuvenated.”
Clotilde – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“I arrived at the retreat tired, jaded and burnt out. I left rejuvenated, radiant and with renewed energy that can only be attributed to the yoga teaching and practice – and healthy eating. Has to be experienced to be believed.”
Christina, 55, Speech Pathologist – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“Every day my breath was taken away by the beauty of this wonderful place. I’ve sparked a new love of yoga and have managed to keep my Zen and some wonderful habits. Thanks so much for this beautiful retreat. I’ll be back.”
Louise, 53 – New Zealand Yoga Hike Restore Retreat
“This retreat is serene. Jessie and facilitators are magnificent teachers and friends. Starting and ending each day with yoga and being pampered in between with deluxe spa treatments in a beautiful location is something everyone should reward themselves with at least once in their lifetime.”
Anna Marie, 29, Nurse – Bali Yoga Spa Wellness Retreat
“As a doctor, I’m always telling my patients that ‘self nurturing is not self-indulgence’. I hardly ever practice what I preach, so decided to do so. I arrived completely stressed out and frazzled, wondering whether I’d made a huge mistake, but left 6 days later completely rejuvenated. There was a lot of emphasis put on ‘restorative’ yoga, which was perfect for stressed out city workers, and I started sleeping well for the first time in months. It was when I ‘re-entered’ city life that I became aware of just how much I’d benefited from the retreat. I feel relaxed and ‘radiant’ and will be recommending the retreat.”
Laura, 54, Doctor – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“My 5-day yoga retreat in Byron Bay was beyond my expectations. The sheer indulgence of so much yoga a day was bliss. Jessie’s calming instructive voice set the tone for the whole week with a great variety in the yoga. Within a day my body felt more flexible, my mind more settled, my spirit more peaceful. It only got better! Fresh organic food was amazing. Did I mention the whales n dolphins we saw on our beautiful beach walks? A gift of nature not everyone gets to see. Now to keep the peace and calm within. …or perhaps just book my next yoga retreat with Jessie. I’ll try for both!”
Dianne, 67 – Byron Bay Radiance Retreat
“Jessie and her lovely team truly create a special environment of support, love, and laughter, which is perfect for us to take our yoga and wellness to a new level. The people on the retreat are inspiring and friendly. The food is incredible and the week floated along in bliss for me! I feel relaxed, motivated and ready to take on the new year with energy and balance. Thank you so much.”
Kayley, 43 – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“If you’ve come so far that you’re reading the testimonials, book the retreat. You will not be disappointed. The Bali retreat provides the perfect environment to get away from it all, spoil yourself, meet new people, spend time on your own, and develop your yoga practice. Jessie and her facilitators are inspiring.”
Melissa, 27, Doctor – Bali Yoga Spa Wellness Retreat
“Such a wonderful adventure in New Zealand amongst stunning scenery with daily yoga and hiking – what a joyful way to spend time on myself. Jessie, ably assisted by Lee, is a fabulous teacher and I can highly recommend attending any of her retreats. Was a much-needed time to practice some self-care.
Jennifer – New Zealand Yoga Hike Restore Retreat
“I wasn’t sure I qualified as a ‘real yoga person’, and was a bit worried if this retreat would work for me – in fact, it was fantastic, it was never intrusive, but the quiet skill and passion of Jessie and her helpers gave me confidence and drew me into the true heart of yoga – being more myself, more centred and relaxed through the physical work of the yoga practice – postures, breathing, the lot! The pace was supportive and never overwhelming. I think the program gave room for everyone at all our different spaces and places to work to our own potential/limits and stretch what we’d thought possible. I did my first handstand in many years – it had me grinning like a kid of 7!”
Willow, 42, Business consultant – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat

Lina, 65, Retired – Radiance Spain Yoga Hike Restore Retreat
“My spine is longer, mind clearer, heart open and spirit soaring. That’s what this retreat did for me. Picture sunrise on a warm beach while saluting to the sun. Resting in comfort looking out to nature. Eating healthy food to your tummy’s content. Lush Massage treatments rolling out the stress. Talented and inspiring teachers and heart warming guests – a yogi family.”
Maya, 43, Therapist – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“Thanks for providing this amazing experience. I went back to my regular class and was astounded to feel how much flexibility and strength I gained over such a short time. In addition to this, I feel ‘happy’. I know this may sound simplistic, but I can’t remember feeling simply ‘happy’ for no particular reason. This experience will shape my approach to life.”
Sandra – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat

Thank you for creating such an amazing experience.”
Ellen, 41, Occupational Therapist – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
‘I did my first ever headstand on this retreat – I was so proud of myself. It made me realise how strong we are and what we can achieve if only we can remove the mental blocks occasionally. Jessie is an amazing teacher with so much knowledge and zen energy to share’
Marcia, 38, HR Manager – Byron Bay Yoga Retreat
“This retreat is perfect when you want to spend time with a special person. My Mum ( 87 years old ) and I (57 years old) can find no better place where we can be together without everyday interferences. See you next year.”
Leigh, 57, Events Manager – Byron Bay NYE Yoga Retreat

Tim, 24, Architect – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“Having just spent a fantastic week in Spain, I am delighted to recommend Jessie Chapman’s Radiance Yoga Hike Restore Retreat for anyone who wants an active and stimulating holiday. I feel both rested and reinvigorated, and ready to explore the world further. The hiking and scenery is incredible, and the intensity of the daily yoga helped me make some real gains (even as a beginner). The combination of mental and physical challenges and restorative contemplation was perfectly balanced and both teachers were really helpful and knowledgeable. Oh, and the food was delicious! Fabulous week in an amazing part of the world.
Cara, 39, Journalist – Spain Yoga Hike Restore Retreat

Karen, 58, Educator- Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“The joy began at the sight of our Tuscan Villa which proved to be ‘home’ for a week of well balanced strengthening, restoring, rejuvenating yoga and meditation. We enjoyed wonderful walks through the countryside and optional outings. The vegetarian food, facilities and staff were outstanding and Jessie’s guidance and nurturing instruction lead us all through a wonderfully, memorable time. I now have a new strength of heart, body and mind. Thank you so much.”
Jenny, 55, Yoga teacher – Tuscany Yoga & Walking Retreat
“I have just spent the most wonderful week at Radiance Tuscany Yoga & Walking Retreat. I feel completely rejuvenated, re-energized and inspired to continue to make time in my life for yoga. Jessie provided a perfect balance between strengthening and restorative yoga practice, walks through the stunning Tuscan countryside, time for quiet reflection and relaxation and optional excursions. I met some really lovely people, the Villa accommodation was gorgeous and the food amazing. I recommend Radiance Retreats to anyone who needs “time-out” to concentrate on themselves and their yoga practice. I’m already planning for my next Radiance Retreat.”
Catherine, 51, Library Officer – Tuscany Yoga & Walking Retreat
“Taking 5 days out and spending it in an amazing location with the Radiance team was so worthwhile. The retreat program provides the opportunity to develop your yoga practice physically and the mind has a chance to slow; with that comes balance, peace and clarity. This has allowed me to centre myself and find the space to determine where my energy needs to focus and the direction I need to take. Looking at the next opportunity as it’s something everyone should do annually.”
Sarah, 47, Manager – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“Thank you to the team of beautiful souls who came together to make this retreat happen. A truly worthwhile experience; refreshing, inspiring, joyful, opening…..I came away with a clear mind, healthy body and happy heart.”
Kim. 39, Mum & student – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“I came home a changed woman after the retreat, I really found myself again after years of continuous stress of starting my own practice, and then having a baby. It’s amazing what a few days of yoga, meditation and relaxation can do for your body and soul. Highly recommended, my goal is now to make it at least an annual event I must do.”

Sarah, 36, Director – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat

I am eternally grateful to Jessie and her facilitators for helping me to get back onto my true path and feel so much lighter and happier.”
Narelle, 34, Teacher -Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
Sunshine, good food, a beautiful location, and hours of yoga every day – it sounded to good to be true before I went and the reality was even better. I have returned home with a lightness of spirit as well as body that enables me, as Jessie says at the end of her classes, “to turn up the edges of my mouth and smile to myself”. Radiance is certainly what it’s been about for me, and each day since I have returned home I have given thanks that I was able to spend such a week exploring my mind, body and sprit in such beautiful surroundings, with the truly exceptional group of people that Jessie has gathered around her. An experience definitely to be repeated.”

Pip, 33, Corporate Manager – Bali Yoga Spa Wellness Retreat

I now feel like I have a great foundation for my future yoga practice'”
Toni, 45, HR Manager – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“There are no words that fully express the experience I had on the NYE Radiance Retreat. A holiday I will treasure for the rest of my life. The program, the loving and caring staff, the welcoming accommodation and let’s not forget the abundant spread of tantalising food. My body, mind and soul were united and nourished. I cant thank Jessie and her team enough for helping start the year in such a beautiful way.
Sara, 35, Marketing – Byron Bay NYE Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“Whilst the retreat was restorative and luxurious, I don’t think its full benefits will be known unitl the coming weeks and months, as I feel inspired and enabled to make permanent, postive changes to my diet and lifestyle, that I never would have considered possible before the retreat. Thanks to Jessie and the other facilitators, my experience of the retreat was transformational.”
Christine, 33, Social Worker – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“Before the retreat ,although I practiced yoga I was stressed, insomniac and running on empty. I felt as though i was living to work and just getting by everyday. I had started to attend a yoga class but was always “too busy” to practice daily -always planning to “one day learn to relax”. It’s hard to believe that after the Byron retreat i am almost a completely different person. Still me and still the same job but the calm I learnt on the retreat is still with me. The yoga was great, even for a beginner, and I am still practicing daily. The setting, the food and the yoga surpassed all my expectations and i can’t speak highly enough of Jessie and her team of beautiful women whose expertise and serenity made every yoga session a joy. A bonus – I have learned to sleep again. I can’t wait to return next year and the year after that.”

“Radiance Retreat was an exceptional experience on all levels. Such care and nuturing support from all staff. Wonderful food with soul. Thank you.”
Dianne, Financial Planning – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
“A week after returning home from my retreat with Jessie, I still feel like I have an inner calm and a renewed energy. I hadn’t expected the overwheming supportive environment and positive energy both from the other attendees and the staff – particularly within the yoga classes. I feel like my body was pushed to its limits in the classes and I’ve taken a piece of that home with me. I’m walking with my shoulders back and feel centred and grounded as I move through life. The retreat gave me a gentle wake up call to my less than ideal diet. Since the retreat I’ve not added sugar to my food (previously a sugar addict), have given up coffee and have started revisiting my stash of Vegetarian cookbooks. I’m looking forward to continuing my health revolution and enjoying the effects on my clarity and strength of mind. I hope it’s not too long before I retreat with you again.”
Louise, 34, Training Manager – Byron Bay Yoga Restore Wellness Retreat
