"Life changing experience!"
I never experienced yoga before, so I was very apprehensive before arriving in Devon for the weekend. Ben and Jennifer made me feel very welcome and at ease guiding me through the entire process. I enjoyed every aspect of the retreat. We had plenty of time to get to know every participant which helps a lot with group dynamic. I fell in love with Ben and Jennifer and the entire group of awesome people. I would highly recommend to everyone.

"Transformational Joy!"
Absolutely every element of this gorgeous retreat was beautifully lead and thoughtfully planned. Ben and Jen made the entire experience nurturing and nourishing, fun and deeply affecting. I was so inspired by their energy as individuals and as a couple, together they guided and supported each and every one of us through incredibly emotional and spiritual journeys. To be honest, it's hard to put into words how completely amazing each bit of this retreat was.

"Yoga/Hiking/Breathing in the Alps"
A fantastic week spent making friends, learning more about ourselves, and spending time in the wilderness. My favorite days were hiking and practicing yoga in the wild - by rivers and waterfalls. Ben was a wonderful leader, open to feedback and encouraged us to take breaks when needed. All yoga and meditation instructors shared their energy and their love of practice. The breathing practice allowed people to delve deep and form bonds with each other. The chalet was in a perfect location - near trail heads, shops, and gondolas for riding up the mountains. After lunch, a variety of activities were provided to ensure that the most was made of our time. The transfer from the airport was key in choosing this retreat.

"Life Enhancing Experience"
This was a weekend full of adventure with the theme of looking in and stepping up. The organiser Benedict led the way to create a warm and loving community and together with Jez and James gave us tools such as breath work sessions, yoga, ecstatic dance, hiking, swimming, fire ceremony - which did not just give a complete reboot - but also made this a life enhancing experience of which the tools given I will fall back on for many years to come. Amy looked after us by providing us with the most nurturing and yummy food which were eaten together and gave another opportunity to connect with the other participants. The accommodation was spacious and in a beautiful old farm on top of a hill and wonderful views all around. There are paths leading to walks starting from the accommodation. Beds were comfortable. Birds twittering. This weekend is for everyone in every walk of life! I look back on it with loving memories and a smile on my face!

"Extraordinary Experience & Environment"
I came to Eden Rise hoping to escape the bustle of London for a little while; and yoga and hiking just sounded like the perfect change from my usual hectic working routine.I had always loved hiking and enjoyed yoga on and off for some time. However, I would never have hoped for this retreat to turn out to be as relaxing – and dare I say magical ? – treat as it did. Ben was not only a great cook and excellent guide, leading us through the breath-taking beauty of the Dartmoor landscape, but also succeeded in making Eden Rise truly feel like home from the moment of arrival. The yoga sessions with Jez struck the right balance between energising and soothing. Although challenging at times, they were suited for all abilities and Jez always suggested options for those more or less advanced.The whole experience – yoga, stunning countryside and meeting so many interesting people from all sorts of backgrounds – left me with an energy and ease that I had not felt in a while and I found myself smiling all the way back to London. Thank you so much, Ben and Jez, for this extraordinary weekend.

"What's not to love"
I was specifically looking for a yoga and walking holiday to get fitter, relax and deepen my yoga practise. This week surpassed all expectations and I feel fantastic . Ben is a great yoga teacher, has a real calmness about him and makes you explore not just the physical poses of yoga but your mental and emotional wellbeing. I am very early on in my yoga journey and Ben gave options for beginners to advanced that were suitable for all. The Breathwork was interesting and thought provoking.Jen’s food was just delicious eating very healthily every day giving the right sustenance to get through the days. I found the hiking hard but with each day I got stronger and could feel my heart pumping that fresh mountain air. The scenery is idyllic so made the hard work worth it. Doing yoga in the mountains was amazing!Ben and Jen’s company was fab and as a single traveller they made me feel very comfortable and at ease.I would thoroughly recommend this trip and Ben’s yoga.

"Transformational Experience"
This yoga retreat was an extraordinary experience.My friend and I were expecting some yoga sessions, mindfulness, meditation, quiet time far from London, sunny weather and good and healthy food.... But the experience was just 10 times better & beyond expectations.It felt like therapy, and very in depth and intense benefits coming with it. Ofcourse this meant that it definitely took some time to feel comfortable back in "real life" afterwards ;-) but so worth it. As discussed with the incredible people there too, these are memories that will remain for a long time with us, as this experience changed us in some ways. Heartfelt thanks to Ben and Jen, you guys are just amazing. I didn't think I'd cry of joy and beauty just looking at you during the alchemy of breath, but I couldn't help ;-) Thank you really.

"A transformative must-have experience"
I had booked this retreat as self care purely for me. It ended up being that and so much more. The retreat was really well structured with an overarching theme of looking in and stepping up. The styles of yoga were varied enough to keep us all motivated and inspired throughout, and both Ben and Jen were a joy to be in the company of. The location was easy to find and beautifully laid out. In addition to yoga we had an alchemy of breath session which was incredibly powerful and plenty of time to read and walk around in the beautiful English countryside. The food was fantastic! As well as having the most soothing voice for guided meditation Jen is a sensational chef. I came back feeling refreshed revived and with a new connection to my own energy. I still feel so much power and love and peace even though I've gone from that environment back to the hustle and bustle of London. They gave me a gift. A truly life changing experience. I cant recommend this retreat highly enough! I will definitely be attending their workshops and retreats again in the future.

"Amazing Experience"
Firstly, let me say that the whole weekend was amazing and enlightening. However, I loved the way in which Ben seamlessly instructed the yoga sessions accommodating for all abilities. Whilst Ben was on hand to give knowledgeable advice and support, Jen was there with complementing holistic proficiency in the asanas, massage and cooking.
