Join Linda and Leroy for a week of taking care of your body, soaking up the sun, and mermaiding around with friends in the loveliest of waves. With 3 Yoga or Hot Pilates classes per day, delicious clean food, and the dreamiest beach in the world, you may also find yourself in the best shape of your life.
The perfect day can begin with a swim in the most turquoise waters you have seen, meditation by the ocean, or a sunrise walk/run along the white-sand beach.
A light breakfast is served, with (amazing) fresh fruit on demand and homemade granola..
The backbone of our morning will be two Hot Pilates and / or Yoga sessions at 9:30am. This is usually followed by a dip in same turquoise waters mentioned above.
Brunch awaits an hour after class. Plenty of delicious veggie and gluten free options abound. The resort is famous for their clean and delicious food.
Grab a hammock for siesta, play in the waves, explore the fabulous shops in town, go snorkeling in the famous fresh-water cenotes, visit the Mayan Ruins or better yet, indulge one of the treatments at the spa. You have a good chunk of time in the afternoon to do exactly as you like.
The evening Yoga or Hot Pilates session will be shorter to get us out in time for dinner or a sunset walk on the beach.
Dinner is again with the group. We will not be held responsible for what happens after dinner, but Tulum has the best bar scene (think tattooed mixologists by candlelight rather than spring break hell).
Fall asleep to the sound of the ocean and repeat all over again.
All daily Yoga or Hot Pilates sessions will cater to all levels; also, they are all optional. Pick and choose from what is offered based on how you feel - choose a little or choose a lot! Either way, you'll get back home strong, radiant, and grateful. Though mild depression may follow return - we may need to hold local support group with Margaritas for a more gentle reintegration.
