Our Team

Lauri, our General Manager, is the heart and soul of our property, overseeing and orchestrating its seamless operations with finesse. Beyond her managerial duties, she embodies inspiration during retreats, serving as a living testament to the power of conscious choices in shaping our health and wellbeing.

 

Her journey stands as a beacon, demonstrating that our genetic predispositions need not dictate our vitality; rather, it is the daily decisions we make that hold sway.

Yoga, an enduring companion throughout Lauri's life, has played a pivotal role in her journey toward holistic health. It's not just a practice for her; it's a way of life, meticulously cultivated and refined over the years.

 

Keep an eye out for Lauri as she crafts delectable and nourishing meals and snacks, infusing them with her passion for wholesome living. Additionally, anticipate insightful workshops where Lauri shares her wisdom and experiences, guiding others toward their own paths of wellness and fulfilment.

Having navigated her own health challenges, Casey understands first-hand the power of movement, perseverance and self-care. Her own journey showed her how positively movement can influence both physical and mental wellbeing, inspiring her to become a qualified Personal Trainer and pursue her passion for supporting other women.

​

Warm, enthusiastic and naturally encouraging, Casey brings positivity and energy to everything she does. She loves helping women discover their own strength and potential, and feels privileged to be part of their retreat journey,  from those first moments of settling in to seeing the renewed clarity, confidence and happiness that can emerge during their stay.

​

When she’s not leading workshops, teaching yoga or taking fitness sessions, you may find Casey in the Spa. Trained in Holistic Massage Level 4, she enjoys helping guests relax through personalised treatments, as well as providing Flowpresso, a gentle lymphatic drainage treatment designed to support relaxation and overall wellbeing.

​

“I’m truly fortunate to be able to support the ladies who come on retreat,” Casey says, “and to witness the positive changes that can unfold in their lives.”

​

With her genuine care, infectious positivity and passion for wellbeing, Casey is a wonderful part of the Resolution Retreats experience.

Jo has been part of the Resolution Retreats family since 2012, bringing more than a decade of experience, knowledge and genuine passion for wellbeing to the team.

Originally joining as Wellness Manager, Jo played an integral role in creating the retreat experience our guests know and love. With qualifications in personal training and nutrition consultancy, her role was wonderfully diverse. She presented workshops on all aspects of health and wellbeing, led fitness sessions, ran cooking demonstrations and created delicious, nourishing meals for our guests. Her extensive knowledge of nutrition, movement and healthy living, combined with her natural warmth and care, made her a much loved member of the retreat team.

​

Jo continued to work closely with and support guests through their wellness journeys until 2018, before transitioning into her current role as Executive Assistant. Working behind the scenes, Jo now uses her exceptional organisational skills, attention to detail and extensive knowledge of Resolution Retreats to support the team and keep everything running smoothly.

​

With such a deep understanding of the retreat experience, from the food and fitness to the workshops and, most importantly, the guests themselves, Jo remains an invaluable part of Resolution Retreats.
