Strength with presence. Focus with ease.
At Baba Retreats, training is not about chasing perfection or punishing the body. It’s about cultivating resilience, balance, and confidence, so you feel strong, grounded, and connected to yourself.
Through kettlebell practice, mindful mobility, breathwork, and simple habit coaching, you’ll discover how strength and calm can grow together. This is fitness that supports your life, not drains it.
This is not about punishing your body or chasing perfection.
It’s about rebuilding strength, confidence, and presence — in a way that supports your life instead of draining it.
At Baba Retreats, Training & Coaching blends kettlebell strength, mobility, breathwork, and habit coaching into a grounded, human approach to fitness. The goal is simple:
to help you feel strong, capable, and at home in your body again.
This work is shaped by Gozo’s slower rhythm, practical, personal, and rooted in real life.
Why train here in Gozo
Many people on Gozo don’t resonate with crowded gyms, loud music, or one-size-fits-all programs. Baba Training & Coaching offers a different path:
- A personal, grounded alternative to commercial gyms
- Sessions adapted to your body, your energy, and your season of life
- A balance of functional strength and nervous-system regulation
- Training that leaves you worked, not wrecked
- A community-minded environment where locals build sustainable health together
Whether you’re returning to movement after a break, dealing with stress or stiffness, or simply want to feel stronger and more stable — this approach meets you where you are.
Who this is for
This work is especially suited for people who:
- Want to lose weight sustainably, without crash diets or extremes
- Want to build real strength and muscle, not just “tone up”
- Feel stiff, tired, or disconnected from their body
- Are navigating stress, burnout, or life transitions
- Prefer mindful coaching over pressure, mirrors, and noise
- Want guidance that respects age, injuries, and recovery needs
If your body feels older than it should, or you’re worried about “starting again” — this is exactly where we begin: slowly, intelligently, and with respect.
How we train
Sessions combine strength, mobility, and breath in a practical, grounded way.
Kettlebell strength
Simple, effective movements, swings, squats, presses, carries, to build full-body strength, posture, and confidence. Kettlebells are joint-friendly and ideal for building resilient strength at any age.
Mobility & joint care
Gentle but effective mobility work to improve range of motion, reduce stiffness, and support healthy movement patterns — especially important for knees, hips, shoulders, and lower back.
Conditioning & fat loss
Short, adaptable conditioning blocks that improve cardiovascular health and support fat loss without overtraining or exhaustion.
Habit coaching
Clear, realistic weekly targets around movement, food basics, sleep, and stress — so results last beyond the sessions.
Breath & nervous-system reset
Short breathwork or kundalini-inspired sequences to calm the nervous system, improve focus, and help the body integrate training rather than staying in “fight or flight.”
You train hard enough to grow, and gently enough to recover.
Breath & kundalini-inspired elements
This is not a traditional yoga class. Breath and awareness are woven into training in a practical, grounded way:
- Using breath to improve focus and performance
- Faster recovery between sets
- Simple kriya-style sequences to release tension and improve posture
- Occasional guided relaxation to integrate lifestyle changes
The result: not only a stronger body, but a clearer, calmer mind.
Training formats
You can train in a way that fits your life and budget:
- 1:1 private sessions
- Partner training
- Small local group sessions
Sessions are held outdoors or indoors, depending on weather and season, and scheduled around work, family, and island life.
