More physical effort than I have ever put into a day - multiplied by 14 for a two week stay! Great food, an idyllic setting (white sands, warm, turquoise waters, monkeys in the lush green trees, coral reefs, a still creek), lovely people (the coaches, the other staff, the local people), creative and different exercises (boxing, kettle-bells, body circuits, par...

I have wanted to do the Wildfitness holiday for several years. We finally managed to do it November 2011. It turned out to be much more than what I had expected. I had no previous knowledge of what wild fitness was all about. Wildfitness is getting back to our hunter gatherer roots and challenging our body in such a way... More

Wildfitness is a spectacular place with a knowledgeable, dedicated staff. Going to an exotic place, eating delicious, healthy food and returning home with a fitter body--what could be better than that? I am already planning my next visit.

My second Wildfitness holiday at Baraka House. I was concerned it couldn't possibly live up to the first one but I was wrong. I’ve had the most amazing time, developed my fitness further. And this has easily been the best one yet! See you next time!!

An incredible life changing experience, phenomenal coaches and training, who helped me realise a far better way of training, got me fit in two weeks and created a complete paradigm change in my mind on health and fitness as well as lifestyle. Mixed with being situated in the most incredible location, as well as having fantastic accommodation, incredible food, combining... More

This was by far the best holiday i have ever been on. Set in the beautiful Barak House on the stunning Kenyan coast, Wildfitness is a world away from the stresses if London. I did the 9 day kick start course with 9 other great guests and came home rejuvinated, body and mind. It sounds rather cheesy, but i feel... More

If you want to get away "from it all", relax and reconnect with nature and a healthy life style and do lots of sports, this is place for you. Great setting on a beautiful beach, fantastic coaches and staff and tons of fun!

Brilliantly located overlooking a huge white coral beach, Baraka House is a beautiful place to be. Lovely food with friendly staff . Everyone had come solo, so plenty of chance to mix and meet other people. But this is not a holiday for chilling. Up early for vigorous exercise, followed by breakfast of fresh fruit, yogurt, honey and eggs, we... More

I spent 9 days at Baraka in November and had one of the best holidays of my life. The place is magical, the staff are lovely & inspirational and the food is terrific. The concept of wild fitness is based on evolutionary science and encompasses exercise, nutrition (eating) and lifestyle (especially stress management). It is neither an army style boot... More

Wildfitness is a life-changing experience. So much more than a "fitness retreat." I had a shared room in Baraka house, which was huge (apparently when they built the place, everything was accidentally buit 3 times the intended scale). The housekeeping staff is wonderful (they do an excellent job with laundry and dirty sneakers). The Wildfitness program in educational, fun and... More
