About this trip

Yoga & Adventure Retreat 


🏝 Join us for a completely customized, once-in-a-lifetime, experience. All-inclusive yoga retreat, in a luxury villa located in the middle of one of the most amazing islands in the world.


Immerse yourself in community, love, and support with a transformative 5-day yoga and adventure retreat. This journey invites you to ground yourself, release what no longer serves you, open your heart, and embrace playfulness and transformation. Through various embodiment practices, you'll connect with your inner wisdom, cultivating trust in your divine connection to self and others, as we foster a sense of community and support.


Throughout the retreat, we will experience true connection. Each morning begins with a movement practice/asana, designed to align your body and mind. You'll explore different styles of yoga in both morning and afternoon sessions. These sessions will vary from slower, more introspective practices like Hatha, Restorative, and Yin Yoga, which help you ground and tune into your body, to more dynamic practices like Vinyasa and Power Yoga, where you'll challenge your limits and discover the strength of your body. You'll also engage in playful practices like Acro Yoga and Thai Massage, where you'll learn to support each other and celebrate community.

Evenings will focus on deepening our connections with ourselves and each other. We'll engage in connection games, unifying meditations, partner massage and stretching, sacred sound healing, and evening reflections where we share what’s alive within us. This time will allow us to check in on our physical, spiritual, and emotional well-being.


Day to Day -

Our retreat features a carefully crafted program that includes two daily yoga classes of varying styles. Each session is designed to help you find balance, strength, and flexibility both on and off the mat. Our experienced instructor will guide you through practices that cater to all levels. Through movement, we can learn to stay present and focused, fostering a deeper mind-body connection… That’s the transformative power of Yoga. 

Our guests will also have the opportunity to delve deeper into their movement practice through specialized workshops on Handstands, Intro to Acro Yoga, and Thai Massage.

We will nurture the mind through workshops on meditation, breath work, and relaxation. Each workshop will focus on mindfulness and self-awareness, leading to a greater sense of inner peace and emotional stability. Our guided meditations encourage deep relaxation and inner reflection. Through breath work, explore techniques that help you release tension, promoting a sense of inner peace and balance within yourself. Practicing these techniques regularly you can create lasting habits that support your mental well-being long after the retreat ends.

Cacao Ceremony 

On the other hand, the cacao ceremony provides a nourishing and heart-opening experience, promoting mindfulness, self-love, and spiritual connection. Together, these rituals complement the yoga and meditation practices, enhancing your retreat experience and leaving you feeling centered on multiple levels.


Whether you seek to deepen your yoga practice, reconnect with yourself, or simply unwind in a stunning natural setting, our retreat offers the ideal space for you to realign and recharge. Come join us on this extraordinary journey of self-discovery and relaxation in the enchanting surroundings of the Gili Islands.


Gili Meno -


Gili Meno is an idyllic paradise, making it an exceptional choice to start the new year. This serene island boasts stunning beaches with crystal-clear waters, providing a perfect backdrop for practice and relaxation. The tranquil atmosphere allows participants to fully immerse themselves in the experience, fostering a sense of community and connection.

If you need a break from Acro, go explore the vibrant underwater world through diving or snorkeling, where colorful coral reefs housing diverse marine life await. The calm waters are ideal for both beginners and seasoned divers. Boat rides around the island present opportunities to enjoy breathtaking views, while allowing time to unwind and appreciate the beauty of your surroundings.

Gili Meno is rich in culture, offering a glimpse into the traditional Indonesian way of life. Visitors can experience engaging local customs, from art and music to ceremonial practices. The island's turtle sanctuary is a memorable highlight, where you can learn about conservation efforts and witness the hatchlings making their way to the ocean.

Overall, I would describe the trip as a fun time. While I was not as involved in the yoga portions of the retreat, I enjoyed that the trip was a "chose your own adventure" model where you had the freedom to map out your own itinerary. I do feel some of the "all-inclusive components" were missed or not accurately portrayed leading up to the event; I think the food that was included could have been better and with bigger portions, and other snacks/small bites and drinks should have been available in the villa throughout the week (aside from whatever we purchased on our own). I don't think I anticipated having to purchase as many things as I did while staying in the villa. Lastly, I think the system of transportation could be improved; travel time/space/coordinating could have been better if larger vehicles had been rented for transport in/out of the villa. I would attend another retreat (depending on location), but I'd likely secure my own lodging and stay more local to the activities, etc. I also feel it's important to ensure that any facilitators of very specific practices (like Cacao ceremony) should be led by someone of the originating culture/ancestry because those are key components that make those experiences the most impactful. Overall, the retreat was fine, but there just needs to be more intentional thought put into what we're all doing and the methods. Thank you!

Hey man, thanks for the review. I'm glad you had a great time with us, and that you enjoyed all non-yoga activities we had. Everyone loved you and your unique energy was of great addition to the group <3. About the food, yes. 100% we should have had bigger portions! The chefs miscalculated the amount a couple of times. Sorry about that! About the transport... because we were so deep in the Tulum jungle, it made things a bit harder when leaving the villa, but that was part of the experience of being away from the city and in nature. I should have done a better job explaining that we were deep in the jungle and that the roads were not in the best conditions. We did have 2 cars and we did our very best to accommodate :). Lastly, every meal & activity we did was included... All meals, all rides, Cenotes, entry to Mayan Ruins, entry to beach ticket, Cacao Ceremony, Sound Healing, Temazcal Experience, & all yoga workshops were included & paid for by us. The only thing that was not included was the one dinner when we went out to the city, as well as any drinks you had (and that was explained prior to the retreat starting). Sorry you felt that was not accurately portrayed. I will 100% do better with communication next time, and I will also have many more snacks options for everyone :D. Thanks again for all these feedback! I really appreciate it. See you at the next one!
