Le Bungalow Phoenix

One bungalow, designed like a promise

Warm wood, white linen, open-air stone bath and a private terrace over the valley — every Amazon sleeps in the same care, whatever her stay.

The official shoot

Phoenix energy, for real 

The Phoenix team and community, photographed in training in Colombia — the strength, sisterhood and calm we cultivate at the Oasis.

The warm-up — the part you never skip
On the floor, breathe before going again
Open the shoulders first
The whole team, and it shows
Together you always hold one more set
Between two sets, the quiet
Three generations, one gym
The bike — where the mind does the talking
Ice bath: three minutes that change the day

Our philosophy

The 1% philosophy

Our 1% philosophy is about simple, repeatable actions: move, recover, reflect and begin again. The programme includes time to explore consistency and prepare the habits you would like to continue at home.

  1. Almost nothing.

    Choose one small action you can repeat today. The 1% is a way to think about consistency, at your own pace.

  2. The length of a stay.

    One to four weeks to explore a rhythm of training and recovery, then prepare what you would like to continue at home.

  3. Small steps add up.

    The curve illustrates mathematical compounding. It is a reminder of consistency, not a measure or guarantee of physical results.

Mathematical illustration of compounding over 365 days, not a prediction of physical results

  1. 1 day

  2. 1 month

  3. 1 year

Mathematical illustration: 1.01 multiplied by itself each day. No physical result is predicted.

The first 100 founding Amazons

The first 100 women to sign up can join the founding Amazons: a lifetime badge and priority booking access. Signing up is free and does not reserve a stay.

“Amazon” is the name carried by every woman who joins the Oasis — during her stay and after it. The first hundred to sign up are the founding Amazons: they keep their badge for life and open the way for the others.

Limited to 100 founding Amazons

    Art, culture & education

    “Representing the Foundation confirmed to me that art and culture are social architecture. Training strengthens the physical temple, but culture builds the spirit. Whoever walks through the doors of the Oasis will not only train her body: she will carry away the voice, the dignity and the healing power of our history, a peace born in the heart of Colombia.”

    Media & outreach

    “At the Phoenix Foundation I learned that communicating is not only passing on information: it is also listening, connecting with people and raising awareness. I love feeling that, through what we do, we can give something to our community and motivate others to get involved and bring about change.”
