Join yoga instructor and somatic practitioner Jade Leitzel in Puerto Escondido, Mexico, among the mango groves, palm trees and expansive salty sea with a community of like-hearted people for a yoga retreat that explores joy in motion.
THE MAGIC OF OAXACA
Like all places, the Oaxacan coast has its own special signature. The land here is especially ALIVE. When you call to it with whatever lives within you, be it thrilling expansion or the sacred pause of reflection, Oaxaca answers. In its spaciousness, it says: "let me teach you". I've watched it work its medicine on myself and many, and one thing is for sure: no two experiences are alike. Oaxaca is a mirror. A vessel for clarity. Its resonance helps us reanimate what's real and live from that alignment.
ABOUT THE RETREAT
This retreat weaves together yogic practices with somatic healing techniques and principles of aligned action in our daily lives. The invitation is to explore, both inward and out. We'll go deep and ground down and then we'll twirl ourselves around and giggle til the sun sets.
Expect an enchanting accommodation, daily chef-made meals, yoga plus offerings rooted in meditation, movement and workshops/journaling + plenty of time to chill, surf, nap, sunbathe, howl at the moon, etc. ;)
This retreat is for everyone. You don't need an established yoga practice or experience with somatic work to enjoy the fruit of this week in paradise. Though I hope you join it all, all offerings during your stay are totally optional.
