"My "Disconnect to Reconnect" retreat was greatly needed for a break in life and to recharge and re-evaluate my priorities and this 6 day/5 night yoga retreat sounded perfect. I left with my body and mind feeling clear, healthy, and happy in my own space. I am now ready to tackle any of life's issues. My immense gratitude to both Valerie and Ira for all their help and support!" ... Read More

"The place was underwhelming. The hot tub was at a different location and the pool was not heated. Hosts were nice and knowledgeable but def overstepped a bit and were disorganized. Expected a bit more for the cost." ... Read More

"In January 2026, I had the privilege of attending the 5 Night Disconnect to Reconnect Retreat at Quantum Leap Retreats in Florida. This transformative experience was made even more special by sharing it with my daughter, as we stayed together in a comfortable room featuring a private bath within a beautiful home situated in a sprawling family neighborhood. Each day presented the opportunity to engage in meditation or yoga sessions. These practices fostered a sense of calm and centeredness throughout our stay. A highlight for me was participating in my first hot/polar plunge, complete with breathing assistance. This invigorating activity left a lasting impression, and I have continued the breathing techniques at home since returning. We enjoyed fresh, nutritious vegetable and fruit shakes every day. In the evenings, there was a variety of local meal selections available within walking or peddle biking distance from the retreat home. Our hosts, Val, Clair, and Ein, were truly wonderful. They provided us with the flexibility to tailor each day according to our personal preferences, ensuring a relaxing and fulfilling retreat experience. Alongside the core activities, we also enjoyed several bonus amenities, including full-body massages, sauna sessions, hot-tub access, and aura readings accompanied by reflective feedback. These thoughtful touches enhanced the overall atmosphere of relaxation and self-discovery." ... Read More

"Review of 8 Day Yoga & Wellness & Flow Retreat in Sunny Florida, USA I wanted a retreat where I could comfortably fast while practicing meditation and yoga in a supportive environment. I was looking for a retreat in a warm climate in the United States where I could be supported in fasting and spiritual activities. I found very few programs in the U.S. that offered fasting and detox diets, and they offered flexible programs at an affordable price. I greatly enjoyed the daily meditation and yoga practice and the exceptionally helpful guidance on a detox diet that personally served my purpose. Each day, Valerie made us delicious and highly nutritious smoothies and soups to create a low-calorie, healthy detox diet. I left a few pounds lighter and with new information and recipes to continue to support a healthy eating strategy at home. Quantum Leap Retreats offers a comfortable home environment in warm southeast Florida within walking distance to the beach. The program I attended also offered beautiful daily meditations and well-led yoga along with supportive, personalized guidance on our daily food intake. There were also other enjoyable activities such as a massage (included with the program fee), a visit to a local Japanese garden, and yoga in the park one morning. I felt I spent the week in a caring container where it was easy to maintain a light detox diet." ... Read More

"I expected a group but it was better than the usual group doing daily yoga and/or meditation. They did both. This Retreat was designed for me and my needs and desires. I stayed in a house with all amenities including a sauna, swimming and plunge pool. It truly was an individually designed retreat that planned in my limitation as a yoga student, I am old and a very beginner. However if you wanted to become a yoga instructor they could accommodate that training as well. Their major emphasis seems to be on nutrition based on smoothies of various kinds which they teach you to make, It had a positive effect on me an I would return." ... Read More

"I had a wonderful trip to Sunny Florida with intentions of cleaning up and detoxing my inflamed nervous system. Though I chose the juice detox, Val professionally and lovingly, with strategy and individual care provided me with new ideas and techniques to change my eating patterns. For example, soft warm soups and veggies, smoothies and foods to calm my nervous system. As opposed to cold and raw vegetables which had become a staple in my everyday life. And coffee. Her bullet proof drinks will become my new norm. Val is quite versed with what and why for making better choices. Yoga and meditation become a daily practice giving love and honor to our bodies. Many other health and healing practices were also provided. Massage & reflexology, sound healing, sauna, cold plunge and life coaching. Boca was beautiful with many different sights and excursions to visit. Beaches are gorgeous. Sunrise meditation was fabulous. Thank you Val & Ira for sharing your skills in this way. Rewarding opportunity for me." ... Read More

"I am grateful I was able to attend this retreat. It was on a whim and kind of last minute. After losing my Dad recently, amongst other family trauma I really have been struggling. I needed some time to myself, to decompress and see life in a new way. The accomodations were cute and clean. The outdoor grounds were nice and pretty quiet. The hot/cold plunge was so intense and I'm glad I made myself do it 2x. With Iras coaching on breathing he helped me through. I had to jump in the pool as I couldn't sit still in the tub. But it's so invigorating and nothing I ever felt. Val was very kind and found me an amazing sound bath the first evening. Great start to the weekend. I did expect the short retreat to have a bit more structure. I didn't expect to show up with 2 others that had already been there for 5days. I thought we would all be starting together. The previous retreat I went to was very scheduled, structured with inclusive yoga, workshops, meditation, sound healing and other things. So my time felt very maximized. I did expect a little more, one on one time with Val for restorative yoga but we had gone two mornings to vinyasa flow in large group settings instead. Which I am used to doing but it was just a little more, being around others than I expected. The other two ladies were very nice, the one left Saturday and the other left Monday when I did. The smoothies were good and kept me full until dinner. I was weary of that since before I had full vegan meals prepared by a chef. But these definitely filled me and gave good energy. The cocomarket was cool to experience and the sunrise meditation was lovely. Ira definitely made up for anything I felt I may have been lacking with his extreme knowledge on plant medicine and doing a biowell session and opeus sound bed . Absolutely incredible. It was a fantastic way to leave. He had me do a high energy sound bed before I drove home 4hr and it surely made me stay wide awake the whole time. The intensity of the vibrations to the music were incredible. Sunday night I really just needed to fully relax and expected that with a massage. Unfortunately I didn't relax whatsoever. The massage itself was very good, especially the reflexology which I've never had before, but the atmosphere wasn't what I expected at all. Be sure to request a private room unless you want to hear everyone talking, whispering, coughing, snoring, curtains sliding...the weekend definitely tested my patience with lots of added noise, I was trying to actually escape. It made my mind stronger but being a regular massage client, I know what I like and any noise isn't relaxing to me. It's not a traditional massage facility. I went to the green cafe 2times for dinner and it was delicious, healthy and fresh options. Ira recommended an all you can eat sushi restaurant which was incredible for my last night. Such fresh and amazing options. All in all the retreat was different than I envisioned, but I definitely felt great when I left and feel like I was able to take a lot home from Val and Iras knowledge of health and mental care. Thank you so much for a lovely weekend . Namaste" ... Read More
