This retreat is meant for you
This retreat is open to all levels of yoga experience and ability. Pricing is inclusive of all local transportation, meals, lodging, classes and group excursions.
Begin your retreat time in a simple, yet elegant cabin in the remote wilderness of the off-the-grid Sierra de La Laguna, diving deeply into your yoga practice each morning and evening and swim, hike and explore each day.
After soaking up this mountain beauty, the sea is calling and we move to a remote island in the Sea of Cortez. Here, enfolded by a protected biosphere, you’ll glamp, commune and practice the absorption of meditation and the awakening of pranayama.
This yoga retreat is a time to step away from your ordinary life into the centering world of nature for deeper self-awareness and new perspectives. Your time in Baja will include glorious hikes in the mountains, swimming in picturesque rivers and endless ocean, splashing in waterfalls, and peeking in on unusual wildlife and alternative lifestyles.
