Escape to AlUla for this intimate women's wellness retreat
The Flex&Flow x Ananda wellness retreat invites just 10 women to slow down and reconnect in AlUla
When life feels overwhelming, a wellness retreat can provide the perfect antidote, a chance to reset your mind, rejuvenate your body, and reconnect with your inner calm.
Picture this: Pilates at sunrise, stargazing beneath desert skies, and four days dedicated entirely to slowing down.
Taking place from Thursday October 15 to Sunday October 18, the Flex&Flow x Ananda women-only wellness retreat at Dar Tantora Hotel brings together movement, mindfulness and cultural exploration in one of Saudi Arabia’s most remarkable destinations.

The experience, tailored for just 10 women, focuses on reconnecting with yourself and the surrounding desert.
Here’s what you can expect at the Flex&Flow x Ananda wellness retreat.
Flex&Flow has teamed up with Kuwait’s Ananda Studio for the retreat, which will be led by Natalie Bristowe, Josefine Bruun and Anwar AlRashoud. With years of experience across movement, mindfulness and holistic wellbeing, they’ll be on hand to guide guests through the carefully planned programme.
Start the morning with Pilates sessions on Flex&Flow foldable reformer beds, set against AlUla’s vast mountains and open skies.
Plus, you can expect a schedule of daily movement and wellness classes, complemented by mindset and visualisation workshops throughout the retreat.
But that’s not all. Time is also set aside to explore AlUla itself, with guided walks through the lush Oasis and Old Town, offering a chance to wander the historic heart of the destination.
Then, as evening falls, guests gather beneath AlUla’s famously clear skies for stargazing sessions. It’s a peaceful reminder of just how expansive the desert can feel once the day fades.
How to sign up
With only 10 places available, the Flex&Flow x Ananda retreat keeps things intentionally intimate and personal. It’s not about filling the schedule, but about creating space – to move, reflect, and simply be.
Think of it as four days to step away from the noise and return to yourself.
