FAQs
-
We will provide an optional shuttle from Cape Town airport on the retreat day, otherwise an uber from Cape Town to Franschoek is roughly 40 - 60 EUR.
-
We just want to understand that you are on a path of self-development and are committed to inner growth.
However having formal therapy is not a mandatory requirement to join the retreat.
-
We have a private chef onsite so allergies and requirements can be taken care of, so just let us know upon booking what you need.
-
We will speak to the group beforehand to understand everyone’s yoga experience, however the style of Amy and Tatjana’s teaching is accessible for all.
-
It’s entirely up to you which sessions you join, the retreat schedule is flexible - so if you need more down time / chillout time alone you aren’t pressured to join every session.

“Amy Maxwell’s self healing retreat at Basundari, Ubud was next level. Spiritually, emotionally, mentally and physically. She poured her heart and energy into crafting a truly beautiful journey. Every last detail. From connecting with everyone beforehand, to tips for ubud, a lovely balance of activities and free time to truly explore, reflect, shop, have massages, do whatever you wish. The guest healers, Dom, Ina and the angelic Tats was a dream team of women. I’m forever grateful for this experience."

"Working with Tatjana brought so much clarity, awareness and gentleness into my life I was not expecting I could get, ever. Tatjana creates the most loving, safe and sacred space to do so. She is highly professional in what she does and is holding you through the whole process. I will never stop being grateful for this experience and for Tats for being the angel human she is."

“This retreat was the best I’ve ever been on. The atmosphere was warm, there was no pressure to do hours of yoga. The blend of sound and yoga was perfect. There’s not really words I have for this at the moment but the women who I shared the space with were incredible too, we laughed so much my face hurt. I’ll be back next year."

“The whole retreat was magical and more. Everything was perfect from the amazing Riad to Amy's agenda she put together. The morning and evening yoga sessions were everything you would want with the sound baths being the perfect way to close the day. It was so much more than just a yoga retreat it was a spiritual journey. Can't recommend enough!.”

"I’ve had the pleasure of being guided by Tatjana and her magic. It is her heart that shows up to the space through her words, energy, and being. I felt genuinely safe to be with all parts of myself that needed to show up and felt her container hold me in it without judgment. She’s a lover, a healer, and a true inspiration."

“I booked the retreat mainly for the location and because I thought it would be nice for my body to have daily yoga classes. However, I experienced a very spiritual journey surrounded by powerful people while we were guided by the compassionate and lovely Amy. It was more than just a vacation trip.”

"Tatjana's session was one of the most powerful experiences I've had in a long time. Since doing my first session with her, I can already see how it's started to change the way I think, feel and speak about myself. I went to her wanting to work on my low self-esteem and self-worth, which is something I have struggled with my entire life. At times, it's often felt debilitating. However, now, having gone to the root cause of it in her session, and working to reprogram it - the narratives I use to hear/say to myself are hardly there, and the things that triggered my unworthiness are not as charged. I HIGHLY recommend going to her if you want to transform your life!"
