This will be ACE's 6th Manual Therapy Retreat, and in 2024 we are doing something completely unique and taking it to the ocean!

ACE CRUISE - Manual Therapy Retreat 2024 will be like nothing we have done before.

What a special experience to get your professional development and have a holiday while cruising in luxury through the south pacific ocean, visiting stunning destinations and sharing it with other amazing therapists just like you.
Not to mention that the entire trip will be a great tax deduction!!

As with all of ACE's Manual Therapy Retreats, you can expect a variety of workshop topics that will cater for everyone, regardless of your interests or speciality. We always bring new and different workshop content to our Retreats that you won't find in our standard workshops and seminars. The educational experiences will be lead by ACE's lead educators, Shaun Brewster and Bodine Ledden.
The full details of our ACE Cruise workshops will be released in the coming weeks.

The ACE Cruise Manual Therapy Retreat will depart from Brisbane on Friday 15th of March 2024 and sail for 7 nights through the stunning south pacific, making two separate day stops, firstly at Mystery Island Vanuatu, and the second being at Noumea, New Caledonia.
Each stop will allow you to depart the ship and explore these beautiful islands, taking in the local cuisine, participate in adventure activities, soak up the rich and colourful culture or simply relax in the sunshine on a tropical beach. The choice is yours!

On board the ship you have an endless list of fun and indulgent options waiting for you.
Our ship, the Quantum of the Seas from Royal Caribean is absolutely incredible and offers activities like onboard skydiving with Ripcord by iFly, go surfing with FlowRider surf simulator, ascent 91 meters above sea level in the observatory capsule, watch a robot mix your cocktails, take in a spectacular dinner show with arial acrobats and more. You'll have 14 different venue options for food, offering a range of different cuisine from grab and go snacks to hand made sushi, through to white table cloth, 5 course gastronomic experiences by Jamie Oliver, and everything in between!
With 8 bars to catch up with your fellow Retreat attendees and share a drink, you'll always have somewhere new to check out, not to mention the endless list of cocktails to work you way through.
Ride dodgem cars, take in a stage show, listen to live music, join a dance class, get a massage, test yourself in an escape room, go rock climbing, swim in one of the many pools, have a sauna, participate in a game show, watch an outdoor film at night, or just do absolutely nothing and relax in the sun. The choice is yours.

In addition to the scheduled workshops from ACE, plus the endless options of things to do in your free time, we will also arrange some fun activities for our Retreat attendees to do as a group. These are always part of what make the best memories from our Retreats.
No matter if you are attending as an individual, with a partner or friend, a work colleague or the whole family (this one is also great for the kids!), we will make sure you have a fantastic time, learn lots, make amazing new friends and also feel like you had a great holiday.
