Testimonials
Eszter is a deeply valued member of the Healing Trauma Retreat team in Umbria. As a somatic therapist, yoga teacher, and reflexologist, she brings an extraordinary capacity to listen to the body and guide guests into a place of safety, awareness, and healing.
Her somatic work is both gentle and profound, helping women release trauma held in the body and rediscover a sense of balance and presence. Through yoga, she creates a space of calm exploration where movement becomes a pathway to self-trust. Her reflexology sessions are described by our guests as deeply restorative, often unlocking surprising shifts in both body and mind.
Eszter carries a quiet strength and a compassionate presence that make every guest feel seen, supported, and understood. Her contribution is woven into the heart of the retreat, and I feel truly grateful to have her as part of our team.
A newcomer to somatic yoga, I was blessed to enjoy sessions with Eszter during my retreat. Any nerves dissipated when I first met her. Such a gentle, beautiful soul, Eszter leads with calm compassion. The movement together with her voice is almost hypnotic. I have fallen in love with somatic yoga and aim to continue to practice, as you feel the stresses and tensions flow away.
Eszter also performed reflexology for me. Her light, gentle touch exuded a pure, innocent love for everyone and everything she touches. An hour of reflexology from Eszter is like a long good soak in the bath, followed by a long sleep in a comfy bed. Delicious ❤️.
Eszter is a highly skilled and gentle practitioner. My reflexology session with her was so relaxing and helpful—I was able to feel the effects right away. Her yoga and somatic movement classes were very accessible and grounding. I recommend working with Eszter wholeheartedly! ❤️
A Beautiful Soul with a True Gift
I met Eszter during the San Flaviano retreat in June 2025, where she was part of the wonderful team supporting us throughout the week.
She led some of our somatic and yoga sessions — and as someone who had never done yoga before, I wasn’t sure what to expect. But Eszter’s calm, intuitive approach made every session a joy. I now feel completely hooked and looked forward to every moment on the mat.
Her reflexology treatments were incredible — deeply relaxing and so soothing that I even fell asleep. It was the most peaceful I’d felt in a long time.
Eszter is also an extraordinary cook. The meals she created were nourishing, full of flavour, and made with so much care. Just thinking about them makes my mouth water!
What makes Eszter truly special is her presence — she’s warm, kind, compassionate, and so easy to be around. She has a way of gently easing any tension, leaving you feeling lighter and more at peace.
Meeting her was a gift, and I feel very lucky to have been guided by her during such a meaningful week.
Eszter has the most nurturing and generous spirit about her. My time with her was a highlight of my retreat. She was pivotal to my success in dealing with a difficult and very personal struggle. She was very supportive of with her breath work, yoga and dance therapy as well as supporting a clean healthy diet. She helped create a warm, calming and safe space where I felt free to open up and make great personal progress.
Eszter’s joyful energy is infectious. She radiates warmth and positivity. I found her to be a talented teacher who guided me to connect more easily and deeply with myself. I especially enjoyed the sessions Eszter lead in nature. She skillfully used the environment to create awareness and calm. I highly recommend Eszter for both somatic therapy and yoga.
Eszter brings beautiful, healing energy to everyone in her presence. She’s kind, patient, and perceptive to people’s feelings and needs. 💫.
Eszter embodies a rare gentleness and caring energy. Her somatic yoga sessions warm up the body and the soul, and helped put me back in touch with my body and make me feel hopeful, something I didn’t think was possible. Her reflexology is a masterclass in subtle deep relaxation. Sit back and let her hands release tensions, whilst she guides you through breathwork that renews and nourishes.
I met Eszter during a trauma recovery retreat, where I attended her daily yoga sessions and had walks and conversations with her. Eszter has a kind spirit – she easily bonds with people and captures everyone with her openness, alproachability and positivity. She is mature and reliable. I would wholeheartedly recommend her to those who seek positive changes in their lives, while enjoying the company of a kind friend and a great cook.
Eszter is an exceptional somatic yoga instructor. She created a safe space and wholly respected each person’s abilities. Her tender voice and clear direction allowed us to meditate, release negative energy and begin to heal as connected with our body and breath. She is also a brilliant reflexologist and her sessions were very helpful.
Eszter has enormous empathy and a passion for helping others and you see this in all her actions. Eszter will help you find peace amidst the noise.
It was such a blessing to have the opportunity to work with Eszter. Her yoga classes were excellent, and even though I am a beginner, her patience and gentle and stretching approach calmed me immensely so that I was confident enough to push myself further. Eszter’s kindness, thoughtfulness and sincerity puts one immediately at ease with her tranquil and soothing demeanour and I trust her implicitly. She is such a gifted and kind person and will undoubtedly bring her sense of balance and peace into your life too.
Thank you Eszter for being such an important part of my healing process, you are an amazing person and I wish you all the very best as you move forward in your career.
I spent a week at a Trauma Retreat in Italy in June 2025. Eszter was a member of staff at the retreat.
From our first interaction, Eszter was warm and supportive. She seemed to
understand my difficulties and my need to learn to love my body though it is far from perfect. Eszter led exercises, morning and evening, of gentle yoga, breath work, somatic exercises. She was the reflexology expert at the retreat centre and I had two reflexology sessions outside in the shade, listening to the birdsong. Her work with me every day during the retreat all served to make the week a wholesome and
uplifting experience.
Eszter has offered me the opportunity to work with her online on a personal basis. I will be taking up this offer in the coming months.
I am so grateful that I met with Eszter and have benefitted from her skills, and her warm and caring personality. Eszter also cooked for the group, and she is a great
chef too!
I recommend Eszter 100%.
Eszter is a wonderful yoga teacher. Her knowledge, dedication and patience have helped me embrace yoga. She creates a welcoming and supportive environment that makes every session enjoyable. I am grateful for the positive impact Eszter has had on my yoga journey.
I would highly recommend a reflexology massage with Eszter. She is truly amazing, and the massage was so relaxing. Normally, I find it hard to enjoy massages because I can’t fully relax or find the rest for it, but with Eszter, it was completely different.
I was amazed at how she could feel, just through the foot massage, which parts of my body needed extra care. She was absolutely spot on every time. On top of that, she is so caring and kind, making the whole experience very comfortable.
What I really appreciated is that she even taught me how to practice some reflexology techniques on myself. I’m still practicing, and while it’s very nice, it’s nothing compared to the wonderful massage you get from Eszter.
If you are looking for a thoughtful, skilled, and caring rmassaget, I highly recommend booking a session with Eszter!
I’m so grateful to have had Eszter as my yoga instructor during a transformative retreat in Corfu. Ezster is a teacher who is rooted in love and her presence brings a level of peace I’d never experienced in a yoga class before. She helped me connect with my body and have a greater awareness of the emotions stored within. Grounded by her loving presence, I learned to release what no longer serves me and embrace my authentic self with kind curiosity. She has an incredible gift for creating safe, sacred spaces where healing can unfold. Eszter has a profound understanding of the mind-body connection, and I am so excited to see the impact she will have on many more souls as she continues to share her love and light.
I recently had a reflexology session with Eszter, and it was one of the most grounding and healing experiences I’ve had in a long time. Her presence is so calm, steady, and compassionate—you immediately feel safe and seen in her care.
The reflexology itself was incredible. Eszter has such a deep understanding of the body and its connection to our emotional and energetic systems. Her touch is intentional and precise, and I could feel my body beginning to release tension and open up as the session went on. It wasn’t just relaxing—it felt like something was shifting on a deeper level.
She also offers somatic work and teaches yoga, and it’s clear that everything she does is rooted in a deep respect for the body’s innate intelligence and capacity to heal. Eszter creates space for you to come back to yourself—gently, without pressure or expectation—and that’s something truly rare.
If you’re looking for someone who brings knowledge, intuition, and real care into their work, I can’t recommend Eszter enough. Whether you’re dealing with stress, physical discomfort, or just want to reconnect with yourself in a meaningful way, she’s an incredible guide.
As my yoga instructor, Eszter was patient, knowledgeable , and I always felt uplifted when leaving her class.
Working with Eszter was such a pleasure. She truly cares about the experience of her students, and being guided in her classes was a beautiful event. She has a calm, welcoming demeanor, and has a very soothing approach, which made me feel incredibly safe. Such a safe space really helps you access the healing power of connecting to your own body and spirit. I am ever grateful I got to meet her!
I was in San Flavian’s retreat and Eszterbz was very warm and pleasant, always helpful, patient and listening.
At the retreat, i was enjoying foot reflectology, which was amazing, Eszterbz’s tenderness and attentiveness allowed me to relax.
I am grateful 🤍
