Struggling to speak Portuguese confidently? This retreat can change that!
You know more than you can say – and that’s frustrating
You’ve taken classes, used apps, watched YouTube videos…
But when it’s time to speak Portuguese in real life, you freeze.
It’s like the words are there—but stuck.
And every time you hesitate, it chips away at your confidence.
The emotional toll of not being able to express yourself
You’re not lazy or bad at languages. You’re just stuck in the wrong method.
- 😳 Embarrassed in conversations when your mind goes blank
- 😬 Afraid to speak up and make mistakes
- 😞 Lacking confidence, feeling like you'll never feel natural in Portuguese
You're not alone. Many people feel this way after trying traditional language methods.
Why traditional methods aren’t working for you
They focus on grammar, not real-life conversation
You spend hours on rules, drills, and textbooks…
But real-life Portuguese? That’s spontaneous, messy, human.
You don’t need perfect grammar. You need the courage to connect.
There’s no emotional connection
If you’re not engaged, relaxed, or having fun, your brain isn’t learning.
Most classes feel like work, not growth. That kills motivation.
You're afraid to make mistakes
When learning feels like a test, you start playing it safe.
And safe = silent.
Our retreat flips that mindset. You’ll learn by speaking, not memorizing.
52 hours of real Portuguese practice
- Speak, listen, and connect with native speaking teachers daily
- Small groups of 3-4 students per teacher divided by level (A1, A2, B1/2)
- Maximum 10- 14 Students depending on venue
- Practice through conversation, games, creative workshops, and meals
- No pressure, no grades—just real life
Wellness & self-care
- Daily yoga, meditation, and breathwork to relax your mind
- Let go of stress, so your brain is ready to absorb the language
- You’ll learn better when you feel better
Culture and connection
- Wine tasting, cooking classes, art workshops — all in Portuguese
- Learn through joy, not drills
- Language comes alive when it's tied to real experiences
A community of people just like you
- Supportive, like-minded people
- You’ll make friends, practice together, and lift each other up
- Come solo — you won’t leave alone

AMAZING! It was a perfect blend of ‘class’, activities and free time to connect with each other. I loved that there were several teachers to learn from, which made it interesting. They were accessible and supportive throughout the retreat. LOVED starting the day with yoga! I will definitely be recommending this retreat to others… I wish I could come to all of them!
