10 ARTISTS · VILLA ACCOMMODATION · ALL MEALS
The artist this retreat is built for.
You already have clients and a technique you're proud of. What you want now is concentrated time to refine it, away from back-to-back appointments.
You're thinking about pricing, positioning and the shape of your business, not only the next set. Four days of teaching gives you a plan you can actually run.
Ten artists, one villa, no noise. If you've outgrown the comment sections and want peers who take the work as seriously as you do, this is that room.
- You're working with clients already and want dedicated time to sharpen your craft
- You want business teaching alongside technique, not one without the other
- You'd rather learn in a small group than a crowded room
- You want rest and progress in the same week, not a trade-off between them

Not a holiday with nail classes attached.
SLX Retreats bring a small group of nail artists together in a private Marbella villa for four days of technique, business, and creative reset. You leave with new skills, a considered plan for your business, and the kind of connections that reshape how you work when you get home.
I wanted a format that treated artists like the professionals they are. Ten people, a proper villa, real food, real rest, and the kind of teaching you can't get in a Sunday livestream. Marbella is the setting; the point is the room.
