About this trip

It’s not just about unplugging...

It’s about rediscovering what happens when we truly plug-in to life.

Awaken your true spirit and completely disconnect in the jungle of the Dominican Republic. Here you can rediscover those forgotten rhythms of long days, easy nights and the feeling of peace.

Designed for you to fully disconnect from the virtual world (no wifi or cellular service) and reconnect with yourself, your breath, and the magical healing powers of nature. 

It’s not just an escape to the jungle...

It's an awakening experience.

The Experience

Location: Samana is a unique province of the Dominican Republic. It has beautiful beaches , lush jungle, hidden waterfalls, charming villages, and a very cool vibe.

 

Yoga: Maki’s classes will be crafted to deepen the layers of your practice as you are exposed to different styles and tools for personal and spiritual growth.  We will have daily Yoga practice with asana, Pranayama, and Meditation, as well as a full moon Cacao ceremony and plenty of time for group and self reflection.


Nourishment: All meals during the retreat will be cooked with ingredients from local farms with vegetarian options available.


Community: We believe the most regenerative experience can happen in community. From morning practices to full moon bonfires, we’ll journey together.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a yoga retreat in Peru with Maki, and it was an unforgettable experience. The retreat offered a perfect blend of relaxation, mindfulness, and adventure, set against the stunning backdrop of the Peruvian landscape. The retreat was held in a serene location surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. The staff was incredibly hospitable, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. In addition to yoga, the retreat included various activities that allowed us to explore and appreciate the local culture and natural environment. We had guided hikes through the beautiful Andean mountains, visits to local markets, and tours of ancient Incan ruins. These excursions were well-organized and provided a deeper connection to the rich history and culture of Peru. I met wonderful people from all over the world, and sharing this journey with such a supportive and positive group of individuals was incredibly uplifting. Overall, my yoga retreat in Peru was a transformative experience. It offered a perfect balance of physical activity, cultural immersion, and personal reflection. I returned home feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and deeply connected to the beauty of Peru and the wonderful people I met along the way. I highly recommend this retreat to anyone looking for a meaningful and restorative getaway.

Traveling to Peru with Maki was outstanding!! One of my best friends and I went on this retreat together. Maki assisted us every step of the way, she was responsive and answered all of our questions. The resort at Willka T’ika was better than anything I could have imagined. The staff treated us like family and they were so accommodating. During the retreat, I enjoyed morning and evening yoga, meditation, breath work, a cold plunge and the wonderful gift of experiencing traditional Quechuan ceremonies. We explored near by ruins, ate great food, walked the town and shopped from local artisan shops. My favorite part was visiting Aguas Calientes and experiencing the greatness of Machu Picchu. I trust Maki and would travel with her again anytime, I’m so grateful for the experience and built memories that will last a lifetime!
