‘The emphasis is on fun, and the aim to learn the skills and techniques needed to continue the craft once you return home.’ The Daily Telegraph
‘Going on the holiday gave me the confidence to make some decisions. When I got back I moved jobs, moved flat and got my motorbike licence. But the most rewarding aspect was the friends I made.’ The Observer
‘The courses I chose on Skyros were foot reflexology and Commedia dell'Arte acting. They were both were inspired choices. In particular, the reflexology course, which took place on a series of mornings in an outdoor clearing, surrounded by pine trees high above the bay of Atsitsa, was something I would not have missed for anything.’ The Financial Times
‘Everything written about Skyros paints a picture of a paradise. You cannot be a journalist without become incredibly questioning about life. That said, a lot of the superlatives [about Skyros] were written by journalists, possibly far more cynical than me. The courses are excellent but I soon realised that they are simply adjunct to a wonderfully relaxed holiday.’ Manchester Evening News |
