Rachel, London
"Thank you all so much. You did an amazing job! I've had a really great time. I feel inspired, invigorated and purified. I know quite a bit about what I should eat but it has always seemed inconvenient to get it together – but I cannot believe how much exercise I have done and how much energy I have had – and not over eaten and never felt hungry. I will change the way I eat now because I have a busy job and need the energy. The food was amazing. I really enjoyed the exercise too. The location you chose was great – it a made it a very very special time. Thank you."
Brenda, West Sussex

"Perfect location. The trainers were very motivational and were excellent in explaining the various exercises, they kept it different, mixed it up and kept it entertaining. Andy is a fantastic choice, I liked his manner and personality, whilst Kerry and Alex were really hands on – good job guys!! I feel: amazing; rejuvenated; re-motivated."

Amanda, Manchester
"The exercise was great, plenty of variety and TJ always giving us information on what does what in our bodies – very useful. He is also incredibly motivating. Everyone was really friendly and there was a great attention to detail... I got some good advice {from the nutritional therapist] and would consider going back to see a nutritional therapist in the future having never been before. Thanks soooo much, was awesome you have a great team."

Looking for a boot camp, weight loss camp or health retreat? EQ could be just what you are looking for.
We have taken all the best bits and put them together to offer you a health overhaul. Educational, fun, motivational and luxurious EQ aims to put you back in control of your health and help you achieve your long term goals whatever they might be.
EQ uses a variety of luxurious settings for their retreats and fitness breaks. Offering a holistic approach to health our five-day retreat focuses on both physical and mental wellbeing with a programme including nutritional advice, personalised exercise plans and complementary therapies such as Reiki, Acupuncture, Shiatsu Massage and Hypnotherapy.
EQ’s weekend retreats focus on body and mind fitness where we concentrate on improving fitness levels, burning calories and calming and relaxing the mind whilst giving you a big endorphin hit. Catering for all levels of fitness our weekend breaks ensure you return to work the following week focussed, motivated and performing at your best again.
This whole-person view of physical and emotional wellbeing helps you understand the reasons behind unhealthy lifestyle patterns and sets you on the path to real, long-term change.
The Retreats do require commitment but they also aim to be uplifting, inspiring and motivating, see our testimonials page to see how.
EQ Retreats and Fitness Weekends are a real antidote to the stereotypical military-style bootcamps that are currently available, there are no intimidating instructors in army fatigues barking orders and preaching that old cliché of 'no pain, no gain'.
The EQ approach is clear; it’s about helping you achieve a balanced and fulfilling lifestyle through education - giving you the tools to take control of your own wellbeing. It’s not about crash-diets and quick fixes because true health can’t simply be measured in dress size and waist measurements. It’s certainly not about depriving yourself of all life’s little indulgences and pleasures, because where’s the fun in that? The testimonial below describes the impact the retreat has:
“I just wanted to say a huge thank you for such a wonderful time at your retreat, after going through a difficult period the endorphin hit was just the ticket and the overall experience was perfect in every way. You'll be pleased to hear that I joined the gym the day I got home and have carried on the good work by eating well and working out a couple of times a week”
In his personal life founder Alex Brounger lives by the motto ‘never stop trying to be better’ and at EQ has surrounded himself with a team who share the same mind-set. This network of professional and highly-qualified men and women will help you take realistic, achievable steps towards becoming the best person you can be, each and every day. Knowledgeable, supportive and empathetic, they are there to offer encouragement and guidance at every step.
