The Ultimate Winter Experience

What Awaits You?

Get ready to embark on a thrilling adventure that will test your limits and ignite your spirit. During this extraordinary week, you’ll immerse yourself in the rugged beauty of the Polish mountains, delving deep into the transformative power of the Wim Hof Method. Expect the unexpected as you push your boundaries, break through personal barriers, and discover new depths of resilience.

Themes of the Week

Each day kicks off with a revitalizing yoga session, accessible to all levels, where we adapt the Yin yoga practice to meet your needs. This is not just any yoga; it’s a gateway to preparing your body and mind for the exhilarating cold challenges ahead. After awakening your body with movement and breathwork, you’ll be ready to face the elements head-on.

Throughout the day, you’ll engage in heart-pounding cold challenges that will push you out of your comfort zone. Imagine hiking through snow-covered trails in just your shorts, or plunging into the icy embrace of the famed Wim Hof Podgórna waterfall. And that’s just the beginning—climbing the majestic Kakanorski Mountain is another challenge that awaits you. As the week progresses, so does the intensity of the cold exposure, gradually building your confidence and inner strength.

Adventure and Discovery

Join us for an unforgettable week in the heart of the Polish mountains, where you’ll explore the depths of your own potential. At ‘The Golden Villa,’ our cozy retreat nestled in nature, you’ll find the perfect balance between adventure and relaxation. With space for only 12 guests, this intimate setting ensures you’ll receive personal guidance as you tackle the cold and cultivate a resilient mindset.

In between invigorating breathing sessions and challenging outdoor adventures, there’s ample time to unwind. Whether you choose to relax with a book in one of our cozy nooks or melt away the day’s exertions in our wood-fired sauna, every moment is designed to rejuvenate your body and soul.

A Program Without a Program

One of our most profound teachings is that true growth happens when you let go of control. That’s why our schedule is a mystery, designed to keep you fully present and ready for anything. Each day is a surprise, filled with activities that cover all aspects of the Wim Hof Method. You’ll learn something new daily, with no agendas to distract you—just pure, unfiltered experience.

Prepare for Anything

This week, the mantra is clear: prepare for everything, expect the unexpected. As we venture into the unknown, you’ll learn to adapt and thrive in ever-changing conditions. Flexibility is key, and how you handle the unknown will shape your experience. Embrace the flow, relax into the uncertainty, and discover the strength within you.

Letting Go and Moving Forward

Before we set off on this journey, I ask you to bring something meaningful to leave behind on the mountain—a symbol of a limitation or pattern you’re ready to break free from. This act of release is a powerful step toward becoming the strongest, most authentic version of yourself. Whether it’s a big or small change, this week is about growth and transformation, and you are the architect of your own evolution.

Conquer the Unconquerable

In just five days, you’ll transform discomfort into mastery, learning to control your body and mind in the face of extreme challenges. Imagine standing at the summit of Sněžka Mountain, having conquered both the physical and mental demands of the climb, wearing only your shorts in sub-zero temperatures. This is the ultimate test of your newfound strength—a challenge that, once overcome, will leave you feeling like you can conquer the world.

Join us on this epic journey and discover what you’re truly capable of. The Polish mountains await—are you ready to rise to the challenge?

Location
We’ll be staying at ‘the Golden Villa’, a large cozy house with accommodation for 12 guests surrounded by beautiful nature. Close to the famous Podgórna waterfall made famous by Wim Hof and the Sněžka mountain.

Between the breathing sessions, walks, and cold and mindset exercises we’ll practice both indoors and outdoors, there are plenty of moments to relax! In the house, there are spaces where you can read and unwind. Or you can make use of the wood-fired sauna, prepared for us every evening.

One of Wim’s beautiful sayings, meaning there’s a program within the program! We want you to be as present as possible without overthinking. So, no agendas, no worrying about the time, just let it all unfold. What we’ll do each day will always be a surprise. But one thing is certain: all aspects of the 3 elements will be covered (you learn something new every day).

You can do more than you think you can
Whether you come alone this week or with a partner, family member, or colleague, with the right mindset, you can overcome your own challenges. Even when it’s not always easy. Let go and trust the process. Step by step, with a small group of people, we’ll take on this challenge together.

Where do you sleep

The group consists of a maximum of 12 people, men and women, divided into 4 bedrooms with single beds. There’s a communal kitchen where we’ll be served 3 meals a day this week. It’s a vegetarian week, but for the carnivores among us: you won’t miss the meat!! The food prepared by our specially flown-in 5-star chef is a fantastic experience for the taste buds.

Preparation

Preparation for the trip. This journey has some challenges but is manageable for everyone. You’re expected to be able to tolerate cold water for about 2 minutes without problems and be able to walk for 1 hour in extreme conditions. The packing list will tell you everything you need to bring, I’ll send it to you.
