The biggest complaint we get on Fridays? "Five days is too short!" 😭🎒
Every single Friday, the same thing happens. Participants pack up their tents, look back at the eco-school, and realize that one week simply wasn't enough time in the bubble.
When you immerse yourself so deeply in movement, community, shared meals, and coastal sunsets, time flies. Five days of intense training and deep connection leaves you wanting more.
That is exactly why we designed our intensive across 3 full weeks. You can join us for 1, 2, or the ultimate 3-week deep dive. Trust us—your future Friday self will thank you for booking that extra week. 😉

Eat. Dance. Beach. Repeat. 🌊⛺️
Ever wondered what a standard day looks like inside the Summer Intensive Portugal bubble? Here is your backstage pass to the daily rhythm at our eco-school:
Morning: Wake up under the Portuguese sun, grab breakfast with the community, and head straight into the studio for Class #1. After a quick snack break, we dive right into Class #2.
Afternoon: Recharge with a fresh, delicious lunch prepared specially for us by our kitchen team, followed by our final deep-dive training session of the day (Class #3).
Evening: We head down to the beach or cruise into Santa Cruz to catch the sunset, relax, and explore the town. Then, it's back together for dinner and a long, pleasant evening under the stars.
It’s the perfect balance of intense artistic growth and the ultimate summer retreat.

Captured in the zone!!!

To go this deep into a movement, you need a solid foundation—and that’s exactly what our intensive is about. Across 3 weeks of rigorous training with international guest artists, you’ll build the strength, anatomical awareness, and technical confidence needed to take risks like this every time you step onto the floor.

Expansion happens outside of your comfort zone. Let’s explore it together. 🇵🇹
