Our mission is to offer unique and enriching experiences focused on well-being and personal development. These experiences come to life through retreats marketed under the “Rützu” brand, designed to provide memorable and transformative moments, as well as through our dedicated Venue that we make available to professionals for hosting their own events.

Our retreat venue is located in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana in Mallorca, an exceptional and unspoiled destination in the heart of the Mediterranean. While the majority of Rützu retreats are hosted here, we also offer exclusive getaways in carefully selected locations, chosen for their natural beauty, unique atmosphere, and exceptional quality of services. Wherever you go, we ensure unforgettable experiences tailored to inspire and delight.

A Pilates & Yoga retreat with Rützu is a moment to step out of your usual rhythm and give yourself space. Space to move, to breathe, to slow down, and to reconnect with your body in a way that feels grounded and real.
It’s not about performance or chasing visible results in a few days. It’s about creating the right conditions to feel better, more present, and more aware of how your body works.

At Rützu, movement is approached as a tool for awareness, not performance. Pilates and Yoga are used to help participants reconnect with their body, improve posture and mobility, and move with more ease in everyday life.
Sessions are guided with clarity and care. The intention is not to push, but to listen, understand sensations, and move with attention rather than force.

Pilates focuses on postural alignment, deep strength, stability, and controlled movement. It helps build awareness around how the body supports itself and moves in daily life.
Yoga places more emphasis on breathing, flexibility, presence, and philosophy. It offers tools to calm the nervous system and cultivate balance beyond the physical practice.
During the retreats, these two approaches complement each other naturally.

This is often the real question behind all the others.
Rützu retreats are designed for people who feel the need to pause, slow down, and take care of themselves. You don’t need to be flexible or experienced. What matters is the intention to be there.
Many participants arrive curious, a little tired, sometimes unsure. Most leave feeling more grounded, more connected to themselves, and clearer about what they need.

Yes. Many participants join Rützu retreats on their own, and it is often one of the reasons the experience feels so meaningful.
Coming alone allows you to fully focus on yourself, without having to adapt to someone else’s rhythm. At the same time, the retreat naturally creates opportunities for connection through shared movement, meals, and moments of presence.
You are never forced to socialize, yet you are never truly alone unless you choose to be.

Yes, a good general level of physical condition is required to participate in a Rützu retreat.

While you do not need to be an advanced athlete, a retreat involves daily movement sessions, time spent standing, walking, and being physically active over several consecutive days. Participants are expected to be able to move independently, follow guidance, and engage safely in regular physical practice.

Rützu retreats are well suited for people who already practice Pilates or Yoga, or for those who are returning to movement with a sufficient physical foundation. There is an important difference between starting or resuming movement at home and taking part in an immersive retreat format, which requires endurance, autonomy, and body awareness.

Sessions are guided with care and can be adapted, but the retreat is not designed as a rehabilitation program or a first introduction to movement for people with significant physical limitations.

Choosing a retreat means choosing to commit to an active experience. Having a solid physical base allows participants to fully enjoy the retreat, feel comfortable throughout the week, and benefit from the experience in a safe and positive way.

Participants of different ages attend Rützu retreats, including seniors and people with varying levels of experience. However, a retreat format requires a sufficient level of physical autonomy and general fitness, regardless of age.

Some participants may be beginners to Pilates or Yoga, or returning to movement after a break, but they are expected to already have a basic physical foundation that allows them to participate safely in daily movement sessions, walk, stand, and remain active throughout the retreat.

Sessions are guided with care and can be adapted within reasonable limits. The focus is on awareness, quality of movement, and well-being rather than performance. However, a retreat is not designed as a rehabilitation program, nor as a first step for people who have been inactive for a long period or who have significant physical limitations.

Respecting one’s own rhythm is essential, but so is the ability to engage responsibly in an immersive and physically active experience over several days.

Physically, participants often notice reduced tension, better posture awareness, improved mobility, and deeper breathing.
Mentally, retreats support slowing down, mental clarity, and a sense of balance. Stepping away from daily pressure and reconnecting with the body often creates space for lasting changes in habits and routines.

Many people feel the benefits quite quickly: feeling lighter, calmer, and more connected to their body.
Visible physical changes usually require more time than a few days. What tends to be most impactful is the internal shift: understanding how the body works, learning to pause, and becoming more attentive to one’s needs.
For many, there is a clear before and after the retreat.

Days follow a calm and balanced rhythm.

A typical day may include
• a light breakfast around 8:00
• a morning Pilates or Yoga session around 9:00
• a generous buffet-style brunch around 11:00
• free time in the afternoon
• a second movement session around 17:00
• dinner around 19:00
• optional activities on some afternoons or evenings

This structure allows both activity and rest, without pressure.

Afternoons are intentionally open. Some people rest by the pool, read, book a massage, or explore the surroundings. Others simply take time to do nothing.
Optional activities may include walks, hikes, visits, creative workshops, or sharing circles. Participation is always optional. Learning to pause and not fill every moment is part of the experience.

Most of our retreats take place in Mallorca, where part of the Rützu team lives year-round.
This deep local connection allows us to share the island in an authentic way, far from standard retreat experiences.
Food is an important part of the retreat experience. Meals are nourishing, balanced, and designed to support energy and overall well-being.
Nature plays a central role. Retreats unfold in carefully chosen environments that invite calm and presence. In Mallorca, this local connection naturally brings a Mediterranean rhythm rooted in simplicity, connection, and a slower pace of life.
In addition to Mallorca, Rützu also hosts selected pop-up retreats in other regions of Spain and in Mediterranean destinations. These retreats are always created in places we know well and in close collaboration with local partners.
The same approach applies to pop-up retreats in Tuscany or Andalusia, where local teams share places they truly know and live.

Groups are made up of people of different ages, backgrounds, and nationalities. What unites everyone is the desire to be there and to share a meaningful experience.
Connections form naturally through shared movement, meals, and moments of presence. Many participants stay in touch after the retreat and often return together. There is lightness, laughter, and a strong sense of humanity throughout the experience.

Rützu retreats are organised by professionals in tourism and well-being, within a clear and structured legal framework. This provides a safe and reassuring environment for participants.
Everything is taken care of, from arrival to daily life during the retreat, allowing participants to focus fully on themselves.

Rützu retreats are rooted in places the team lives in or knows deeply. They are not designed from afar, but built with care, local knowledge, and attention to detail.
What truly sets them apart is the human-centered approach. Participants are welcomed, cared for, and supported throughout the experience. The intention is simple: to create the conditions for people to feel better, more present, and more aligned.

Rützu retreats are for people who want to slow down, move with awareness, take time for themselves, and experience meaningful human connection in a structured and supportive environment.
If this resonates with you, a Rützu retreat may be exactly what you are looking for.
