FINAL DATES TO BE CONFIRMED.

There are some places that feel like they were made for a Retreat.

Italy is one of the them.

From the food, wine, architecture, coastline, piazzas, history, culture, sunshine and sense of celebration, Italy is the perfect backdrop for learning, connection and a little bit of la dolce vita.

In May 2027, we’ll be bringing together Manual Therapists from around the world for an unforgettable professional development experience - one that blends clinical education with travel, culture, community and fun.

We'll bring the awesome high-quality, evidence-informed and clinically relevant education that ACE is known for, but this time we'll be serving it up with excellent coffee and a side of Italian sunshine.

What is the ACE Manual Therapy Retreat?

The ACE Manual Therapy Retreat is not your standard professional development event.

It’s a destination learning experience designed for Manual Therapists who want to deepen their clinical skills, connect with like-minded practitioners, and step outside the usual classroom or conference setting.

Across the Retreat, you can expect a mix of hands-on workshops, clinical conversations, shared meals, cultural experiences, social events, crazy nights on the town and plenty of opportunities to build genuine professional connections.

Yes, you’ll learn.

Yes, you’ll explore.

Yes, there will probably be a few moments where you find yourself laughing until you cry, and wondering why all professional development doesn’t feel like this.

No matter if you are attending as an individual, with a partner or friend, a work colleague or the whole family, we will make sure you have a fantastic time, learn lots, make new friends and have a great tax deductible holiday.
