the unbound retreat.

Chania, Crete

23 — 27 September 2026

this is not your typical training camp.

it’s a retreat.

The goal is to not only train hard, have an amazing time in the sun, connect with amazing souls…but also to return home feeling rejuvenated.

It’s a moment to not just switch off and reboot but to have a full system upgrade.

come with me, i wanna show you why unbound exists…

I created Unbound because I couldn't find the kind of retreat I actually wanted to go to.

Most seemed to fall into one of two camps.

Train all day.

Or barely train at all.

i wanted to have both.

5 days where you could improve your Jiu Jitsu without making it your entire personality.

Where you could switch off without feeling like you're wasting time.

where good conversations matter as much as good training.

where you leave feeling both rested and energised.

that's what unbound is.

Not an escape from your life.

A chance to reconnect with the parts of it that matter most.

the daily vibe

Everything is designed to help you fully switch off, reconnect, and get the most out of the week, on and off the mats.

there is no right way to do unbound.

The idea is to create enough structure that you feel inspired, and enough freedom that you can actually enjoy it.

what’s included.

are you ready?

meet the team

I didn't just choose people who are great coaches. I chose people I genuinely love learning from, spending time with, and having in my life.

Everyone on this team brings something unique to the experience, both on and off the mats.

Great coaching matters, but so do the conversations over breakfast, the laughs by the pool, and the people you surround yourself with for the week.

sula-mae

Founder and Jiu Jitsu Instructor

Hi, I'm Sula. I spent most of my twenties chasing big goals through Jiu Jitsu. Somewhere along the way, I realised the best parts were rarely the medals. They were the people, the places, and the version of myself I became along the way.

I love Jiu Jitsu, but I also love slow mornings, good coffee, swimming in the ocean, deep conversations, and doing absolutely nothing for a few hours.

bruno

Jiu Jitsu Instructor

Bruno has a rare ability to make Jiu Jitsu feel simple. His coaching is calm, thoughtful, and rooted in fundamentals that actually work. He's the type of person who can fix a technique you've been struggling with for years by changing one small detail. Off the mats, he's equally valuable to learn from. He listens deeply, asks great questions, and often offers a perspective you hadn't considered. That's exactly why I wanted him as part of Unbound.

mapule

Strength & Mobility Coach

Mapule is my strength and conditioning coach and exactly the kind of person I want at Unbound. She's incredibly knowledgeable, but what really stands out is that she has a way of helping people feel confident, capable, and completely at ease.

Oh, and she's exceptionally qualified too. With a degree in Sport and Exercise Science and years of experience as a Strength & Conditioning and Nutrition Coach, she knows exactly how to help people build strength, move well, and look after their bodies for the long term.

lia

Co-founder & Experience Lead

Lia is the glue holding Unbound together. She's the person behind many of the small details that turn a good retreat into an unforgettable one.

What makes Lia so perfect for Unbound is that she has a rare ability to see what someone is capable of before they see it themselves and is often the person encouraging others to back themselves, think bigger, and stop waiting for permission.

Don't be surprised if a conversation with her ends up being one of the most valuable parts of your week.
