Ok - this is going to be shorter than I'd like but I just have to say that if you have any inkling/desire to go to this retreat in Cambodia -- I say DO IT! I am decently traveled, been on a couple very good retreats -- but by far -- this was my favorite of all! Here's why ... (again, keeping this brief) *LL & Brad (although they've hosted these retreats for over 13 groups) -- they seem bright eyed, refreshed, energized and more to host and take everyone on a fabulous journey - from the very specific details to letting it flow -- I loved it all and I appreciate all of their attention to the details --- the schedule was spot on, the experiences are not to be missed, the friendship and community is PRICELESS - what else -- the guides were fantastic, the accommodations were wonderfully charming ... well ... that's it ... for now ... Once I landed back in Chicago -- well, life did it's thing and consumed me in all the directions (and I hear there might have been a M in retrograde/aha!) --- anyways -- don't wait for 2026 -- "I promise you" said in my most Lesley voice -- "I promise you" -- you won't be disappointed. I loved the retreat and who knows - I might make another appearance in Cambodia in the future!P.S. --- If you see this pillow in Home Goods next time you're shopping ...Eat the cake, buy the shoes ---- TAKE THE TRIP! Well, take it as a sign and DO IT!! xo

What's one lesson or insight from the Cambodia retreat that you've carried into your Pilates practice? It's been a full week since returning from the Cambodia Retreat and I feel and look leaner, stronger, and more centered than when I left. How does one come back from a vacation half way across the world experiencing amazing food, drink, fun and laughter? Five classes in six days and thousands of steps among ancient temples! Lesley has always called Pilates a practice, but when she used the words "movement practice" while on the retreat that has truly stuck with me. You can always find an excuse not to get a workout in but even if you take 15-20 minutes to get up from your desk and walk around the block, you've done something good for yourself. Choosing to just move, and make the connections in your body in any way that your schedule allows, that's winning! Kassi Bernard - OPC Member since Feb 2022

My husband and I loved our time in Cambodia with Leslie and Brad! We were able to relax and enjoy as everything was so well planned from the great Pilates sessions to the tours to the bonus activities including massages and acupuncture. I’ve been doing Pilates for 20 years and learned new things from Leslie that continue to challenge me. If you are looking for an adventure + Pilates this is your trip!

This was such a magnificent trip! From the morning pilates classes to the workshops and temple tours, everything was perfect. Lesley and Brad were wonderful hosts and had every detail worked out for us. I was wishing it was longer because I truly wasn’t ready to leave., I highly recommend this retreat.

My favorite moment of the trip was when I looked at the beautiful sunrise and realized I was present in the moment and nothing else in the world mattered at that point. This real presence was achieved through the interactions with the community, the awesome learnings and self examination through workshops and the Pilates movement with Lesley. I learned to give to myself what I need and realize that “what I desire, I deserve”. This has been a life changing experience that has empowered me in ways I never dreamed. My daughter and I went to this retreat. We felt totally safe and well cared for every moment of our retreat. I would travel twice around the world for this experience. I recommend everyone to join LL and Brad on this life changing adventure. I am planning on going again next year. I am excited and can’t wait!

Definitely a bucket list experience fulfilled! The entire experience was beautifully coordinated - from the kind and joyful tour guides, to the memorable excursions. Morning Pilates and workshops were the perfect way to start days filled with unforgettable tours to ancient temples, a lotus farm, a floating village and an elephant sanctuary. Icing on the cake included inexpensive massages and acupuncture treatments. I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect retreat! I pray all humanity can be so blessed to be refreshed physically, mentally and spiritually from such a retreat!

Sharing this unique adventure with my daughter and watching her navigate through an incredible experience with an enterprising curiosity. We felt very safe at all times. Highly recommend this life transformative opportunity of a lifetime!!! We loved the Singapore Airline portion of the journey and spending time exploring the Singapore Airport… Took full advantage!
