What do you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?
A Women’s Quest retreat is the ultimate adventure to refresh your spirit, rekindle your passions, and cultivate balance in your life. Each fun-filled health and fitness retreat combines physical, mindful, and spirit-filled activities with amazing adventures that enliven, refresh, and encourage self-confidence and self-expression. Retreats are held in some of the most beautiful places on earth, immersing you in gorgeous landscapes, and giving rise to a variety of activities to spark your senses, revitalize your body, and soothe your soul. Comfortable accommodations, inspirational talks, expert instruction, and healthy, delicious meals, combined with massage, yoga, and creative activities round out each retreat.

Have you ever had an experience that changed your life?
We’ve all had those poignant, triumphant moments where we achieved something we once believed impossible. These occasions encourage us to continue to step beyond our present limitations, and to discover new powers within ourselves. This is the spirit of Women’s Quest. Our world-class, all-female staff of former pro athletes, dance and yoga instructors, body therapists, coaches, optimists, and inspiration junkies are committed to helping women reach their full potential in an atmosphere that is supportive, friendly, and non-competitive.

Take time for yourself.
At Women’s Quest we believe life is something to be lived to the fullest, not rushed through or endured. Often women want to make changes and create meaning in their lives, but they’re so busy keeping up with their jam-packed everyday, that they’re not sure how to start. The answer is centuries old, but has been forgotten in our modern lives – going on a Quest, your own journey of personal discovery.

Who should go on a Quest?
Women from all over the country of all ages and abilities have attended our quests since 1992. The prerequisites for attending have nothing to do with athletic ability or experience, and everything to do with an open heart and an inquisitive mind. You can be a complete beginner in all of the activities offered, or even have no experience at all. One of the most rewarding opportunities for our staff is to introduce women to new activities and watch their attitudes shift from uncertainty to empowerment. The same holds true for our spiritual, creative, and intellectual exercises. You don’t have to be a writer to learn how to express your feelings and insights on paper, nor do you have to be an artist to experience the joy of creativity.

If you are an experienced athlete, or an elite competitor, we have something to offer you too. Our staff has the expertise to take you to the next level. Whether you’re looking to push your limits, or learn to respect them, we’ll help you find the balance to be your best. You will come home from our Quests physically and mentally stronger, refreshed, and inspired.

No matter what your age... no matter where, or what, you come from... if you have a positive attitude, a willingness to grow, and a playful curiosity, a Quest is for YOU.

This is no ordinary fitness or travel vacation. It is a reawakening to yourself and your one wild and precious life!
