Annual Retreats – our retreats were conceived as a haven for people looking for an escape from the continual pressure of daily life. Having spent the last 20 years immersed in the fields of law and business, we appreciate from personal experience, the need, at some point in their lives, for people to really step into a different space.

– To take a holiday where you actually do come back feeling rested, healthy, genuinely reinvigorated and ready to take on your usual responsibilities with energy and strength.

– To experience something that actually changes your world, those rare moments that can subtly redirect your life.

– To take something away with you that you can easily incorporate into your day to day – to keep the benefits of your retreat well beyond the length of your stay.

Our retreats are designed to be rigorous and profound in terms of effect – and yet to be experienced within a personal and serene environment. Held in Zimbabwe at a private residence in Harare or on the magical Zambezi river, we believe in a personal, low profile approach hosting just 8 people at a time, to ensure each guest receives proper attention and guidance.

Dominique Caubel is of Franco-Indian descent and was born in 1963 in the Comoro islands off the coast of Mozambique and to the west of Madagascar.

At 8 years old he began to learn a variety of martial arts attaining black belts (Chinese and French) in both Kung Fu and Tai Chi.

At 40, he began to specialise in “internal” martial arts without the focus on aggression and now dedicates his time to Tai Chi (Chinese) and Lu Jong (Tibetan) which he feels have similar visions.

Dominique is a professional Lu Jong instructor trained and certified by the renowned Tibetan master, Tulku Lobsang.

Through his physical practice, he discovered techniques for body treatment and studied Ayurvedic massage, Chinese medicine and Tibetan Osteopathy, combining his massage skills with Reiki (Master) and Karuna, to achieve an extremely powerful and unique form of healing massage. His massages are available to guests upon request subject to availability (see Treatments menu).

Dominique Is based in Nice, in the South of France and in addition to offering healing treatments and teaching Tai Chi and Lu Jong, he conducts various annual retreats around the world. For more information visit www.dominiquecaubel.com
