REFINE / IMMERSION / QUEST
You are ready to return to strength, you are ready to return to presence.
You are ready to return to the deeper part of yourself that has been waiting to be awakened.
The Hero’s Quest Greece
Imagine taking a Hero’s Quest Greece — an 8 Day immersive training experience where you train, recover, explore and evolve inside one of the most breathtaking luxury resort settings in the world on the iconic Greek island of Amorgos.
Hosted by Summer Huntington and Mark Wildman, this experience blends world-class movement coaching, ancient weapon training, nervous system restoration, luxury accommodations, oceanfront immersion and the pursuit of mastery.
Set against the backdrop of the Mediterranean Sea, The Hero’s Quest 8 Day Training Retreat is designed for those who know they are capable of more strength, vitality and capacity - and are ready to tap into that power.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO TAKE A QUEST?
In ancient traditions, the quest was never about reaching a destination. It was about transformation. A quest asks something from you.
Courage. Presence.
To take a Quest is to willingly leave behind the patterns that keep you stagnant and enter a new environment that demands expansion.
Adaptability. Discipline. Leadership.
You train differently.
You think differently.
You breathe differently.
You reconnect to the part of yourself that remembers what it means to feel fully alive.
The Hero’s Quest is not about perfection.
It is about becoming stronger.
More capable.
More resilient.
More embodied.
This 8 Day Training retreat is for those who are ready to challenge themselves physically while experiencing profound restoration mentally and emotionally. You do not need to be advanced.
You simply need the willingness to step forward.
THE EXPERIENCE
Imagine waking each morning to the sound of the sea.
Sunlight pouring into your suite.
A slow walk toward the rooftop training deck overlooking crystal blue water.
Coffee in hand. Barefoot on stone floors warmed by the Mediterranean sun.
For eight days, your only responsibility is to train, recover, nourish yourself and immerse fully in the experience. This is a luxury performance retreat designed for deep embodiment.
Every detail has been curated to support your expansion.

A: Athens International Airport (ATH) is the most convenient to arrive. We will be arranging group travel to get to Amorgos island, which does not have an airport, but you will take a boat on specific day. Ferries start from Athens port, Piraeus and dock alternately at the two ports of Amorgos Island: Katapola and Aegiali (near to the Aegelias hotel).

A: Shuttle info TBD
We always recommend arriving 48 hours before the event starts to acclimate to the time changes, the area and rest up before training day one.
Here is the information regarding the shuttle pick up at SJO:
Once arriving and going through customs and bag collection, the guests can make their way to the exit. Right outside of the exit of the international terminal is 'Malinche Cafe' - this is the meeting spot for the shuttle. There are a few tables and snacks available for those landing in the morning. The shuttle driver will be waiting for the group with your retreat name + their names as well. Once everyone is collected and onboard the shuttle will depart by 10:30/11am - Please arrive prior to 10:30am to ensure we depart on time.
We encourage everyone to fly in the day before. -
