Trade the everyday rush for the quiet gold of the desert and the vibrant pulse of a new city. Your journey to renewed balance and resilience begins where ancient tradition meets modern luxury.

Which city calls to you more for a wellness escape: the vibrant pace of Dubai or the cultural depth of Abu Dhabi?
What is the one healthy habit you’re struggling to maintain right now? Maybe we can work on it together during the retreat.
Out of Daily Yogalates, Sound Baths, or a Desert Safari — which experience are you most excited to try?
If you could hit the “reset” button on your stress levels right now, what would that feel like?

Welcome — I am Lisa Wilson, and this is The Self Project: an Art of Wellness powered by Be Yogalates.

As a physiotherapist, yoga, and Pilates consultant, I’ve seen how essential consistent physical and mental maintenance is to living a long, joyful, and healthy life. That’s why I’m thrilled to invite you to a truly transformative experience: The Self Project Retreat in the inspiring landscapes of Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

From April 26th to May 3rd, we will embark on a 7-day wellbeing and cultural immersion designed to reset your system, strengthen your resilience, and elevate your self-care rituals.

A Sanctuary for Physical and Mental Health

Modern life can be demanding. This retreat offers the space to pause, breathe, and invest deeply in your wellbeing. Our program is grounded in evidence-based practices that support longevity and holistic health.

Physical Wellness and Longevity

Our daily Yogalates fusion sessions combine the strength of Pilates with the fluidity of Yoga to enhance mobility, alignment, and strength — all vital components of ageing well.
Hydrotherapy and water-based sessions add gentle resistance and release to build confidence and ease in your body.
You’ll also have access to my wellbeing workshops focused on ageing well, resilience, and longevity.

Mental and Emotional Restoration

True vitality begins with a calm, centred mind.
Our Breathwork and mindfulness practices help regulate your nervous system and promote deep emotional clarity.
Sound baths and immersive sound sessions deliver profound relaxation, while guided journaling provides space for introspection and meaningful personal transformation.

The Self Project Retreat honours every part of you — your challenges, your growth, and your potential — guiding you toward genuine balance and renewal.

The Perfect Blend: Luxury, Culture, and Self-Care

Co-founded by myself and Kathryn, a long-term Abu Dhabi resident and cultural curator, this retreat brings together therapeutic movement and authentic Emirati cultural experiences.

Cultural Immersion

Explore the artistic, historical, and spiritual heart of the UAE through private guided tours of mosques, palaces, galleries, and iconic landmarks.

Unforgettable Experiences

Every element of The Self Project has been carefully designed so you can fully receive the experience.
