About this trip

Come back to your element

After our last retreat in France, where the whole week was about joy, we wanted to go deeper.

When you're in your element, things flow. You feel grounded, confident, joyful, open. Ideas come easily. But living the busy lives most of us do, we get stuck in the weeds. Disconnected from our own nature. And never more so than in the dead of winter.

So once the New Year buzz has settled, we're whisking you off to Mexico. Back to basics. Taking you on a journey through the elements, so you can come back to your element.

Each day we’ll explore a different one. Swimming in some of Mexico's most beautiful cenotes for water. A temazcal ceremony for fire. Cacao for earth. Breath and voice for air. And space, which is exactly what it sounds like: a schedule with spacious time to choose what you do with it.

You'll leave feeling more connected, more joyful, and more like yourself than when you arrived. We can’t wait to do this with you!

// Simone & Lydia

This is for you if

  • You live a fast-paced, busy life and you’d like to take a step back and feel calm, joyful and grounded again

  • You’d love to make new connections with cool people who share your values and interests

  • You want to swap the winter cold for warm sunny days at the beach

  • You want to go deeper with your yoga/pilates practice. You want real feedback, hands-on adjustments, and answers to the questions you can’t ask in studio classes.

  • You want to feel more connected to your intuition, nature and the elements

  • You want tools you can actually use at home: form knowledge, breath, journaling, and more

  • You love the idea of travelling to Mexico but the thought of having to plan the itinerary feels like a chore…

  • Or maybe Tulum has been on your list for years and you’ve just been waiting for a reason to finally book it!
