Hey, I'm Loz!

the founder of PE Retreats

Before PE Retreats existed, I was a primary school PE teacher and a qualified PT. When COVID hit, I was living in Melbourne. Schools shut, gyms closed, and like so many others, I felt isolated and lonely.

I just wanted to move my body and be around other people during a really strange time. So I started running fitness sessions in a schoolyard. Social distancing, adapting as we went, and making it work.

I called it PE Club.

What started as a way to stay sane quickly became a real community and the part of the week we all looked forward to most.

When the world began to open back up, I had a thought: how cool would it be to do this overseas?

So I booked a planning trip to Bali and started sharing the whole process with my community – scouting out hotels and gyms and imagining what it could look like to bring PE Club over there.

Within 24 hours of inviting my audience, 15 women had booked a spot. In the end, 19 of us went.

That was the very first official PE Retreat, and it was incredible.

From that week on, the heart of what we do has never changed.

It’s always been about bringing women together in beautiful places. Moving our bodies in ways that feel good. Trying new things. Saying yes to experiences that light us up. And creating space to feel present, connected and genuinely happy.

Life comes with loss, heartbreak and hard seasons, but it also holds so much fun, adventure and possibility. Sometimes we just have to go and find it for ourselves.

Travel has shaped me, healed me, challenged me, and given me friendships and experiences that have changed my life in the best ways. I want that for everyone who joins one of our retreats.

PE Retreats are about enjoying how good life can be, sharing it with the right people, and becoming better versions of ourselves along the way.

No matter where you’re at or what’s going on in your world, I know you’ll head home better than you came (and with new friends and unforgettable memories).
