Retreats

A gateway to the next step of your weight-loss journey.

Rockaway Beach, Oregon, a popular retreat location

A TOPS retreat is a few calendar squares of time that you reserve just for you. It’s a time to get away, relax, learn, have fun, and fire up your weight-loss motivation—all in the supportive company of other TOPS/KOPS members. It’s unique. It’s a treat. And we think you deserve it.

Retreat Q&A

Retreats are only open to members (men and women age 18 or older), and joining is easy! You can join online and enjoy a full year of membership benefits. Call or email one of our retreat registrars listed below for assistance. They're happy to help.

Look at a sample retreat schedule, meet our retreat directors and hear about the retreat experience firsthand from members on What Happens at a TOPS Retreat?

TOPS is now offering Virtual Retreats on ZOOM as well. Learn more about this unique experience.

You may request information about any retreat or ask to be put on the waiting list for a retreat that is full by contacting one of our Retreat Registrars.  Please be sure to mention which retreat location(s) and date(s) interest you.

The price of a retreat depends on the location and number of days. Most onsite retreats cost between $250 to $600* (sometimes more), including lodging and meals. Retreatants are responsible for their own transportation to and from the location. If you haven't attended a retreat in the past five years and are an active adult TOPS member, you are welcome to apply for one of two retreat scholarships awarded annually in July.

*Unless noted, prices are in US dollars. For foreign sales, your credit card issuer will convert other currency at the current exchange rate and may charge a fee.
