“Maxine, led an excellent Japanese Wintertime retreat at Hepburn Springs. It was so well organised, everything thought through and it was so pleasant to get to know fellow yogis better. The venue at Shizuka Ryokan was wonderful; it was like being in Japan without the travel. The staff were so efficient, courteous and attentive to our needs and the meals were excellent. It is such a peaceful environment and coming back to Melbourne, I felt so refreshed. I loved every minute of it and look forward to joining Maxine’s next retreat.”
“Soul Seed Yoga’s Well-being & Yoga Retreat at Shizuka Ryokan in the spectacular Hepburn Springs is a most memorable rejuvenating experience. Max, and the retreat team went beyond all standards providing a well thought out itinerary, delicious dietary plan, and nurturing space to tap into my peace. It felt like being cocooned within Nature’s heart space while I unwound and rediscovered balance. This experience is now my new yearly self care gift. Thank you Max! Your warmth, generosity, and talent for your craft made this an unforgettable long weekend.
