Let’s gather together, in a beautiful place, to practice yoga, be in community, meditate and be in nature.

Green Gulch is a Zen Center tucked in a serene valley near Muir Beach, with walking trails and an incredible garden.  We will practice in a yurt amongst eucalyptus trees and red tailed hawks, eat a healthy lunch prepared by Zen residents from their organic garden, wander the grounds and nearby beach.  This is an all levels practice day, with active and restorative practices, as well as plenty of free time to rest, read and explore. Everyone is welcome to come renew.

About this trip

I have been fortunate to enjoy many retreats with Maile, and I try not to miss any.  The day is always perfectly paced and varied with different options in between yoga practices.  Maile is a very special yoga teacher with a warm and welcoming spirit that fosters mindfulness and relaxation. 

Green Gulch Retreat Day : May  17

We had a magical time. The food & people were amazing, thank you!

Wonderful day of yoga, yummy food and outdoor meditation/walks. 

Maile and Kimberly are exceptional yoga instructors who consistently lead inspiring, thoughtful, and engaging retreats. This was my second retreat with them in Todos Santos, and once again, it was truly amazing. Their classes struck the perfect balance between challenge and relaxation, leaving me both energized and restored. The stunning location provided unique opportunities for whale and bird watching, adding to the retreat’s magic. Most importantly, Maile and Kimberly’s deep knowledge of yoga, seamless collaboration, and warm, supportive presence make their retreats truly special. I highly recommend experiencing a retreat with them—you won’t be disappointed!

Baja Desert Oasis - A FarawayNearby Retreat

This was an extremely well-planned and enjoyable retreat experience, and I look forward to attending again next year!  Maile and Kimberly thoughtfully planned for a variety of interests, creating many options throughout every day for leisure time.  The two yoga practices each day were also varied and specifically planned, and there was daily meditation and yoga nidra offered in addition to yoga.  The retreat center, lodgings, and staff were lovely, although I know some were frustrated by the fact that we could not walk to the beach -- shuttles were provided, however, and I took full advantage to walk the beach and watch the whales.  The restaurant and location were pitch perfect for our last night, with a sunset cocktail reception on the beach with whales breaching just yards offshore.  Maile and Kimberly have this retreat dialed, and they are both outstanding, knowledgeable, and versatile yoga instructors.

Maile Sivert was our fine yoga teacher, warm and down to earth.  It was restorative and pleasing, with stretching, relaxing, meditating. The soup-and-salad lunch and nature drawing break were just right in the gorgeous country setting, with woods and gardens, yurt and beach.

Green Gulch Retreat Day with Yoga + Botanical Drawing : May 5

What an amazing day! Maile is a gifted and adept teacher who leads with integrity and brings ease to everyone in a class. She beautifully held space for us and allowed us to expand our awareness in a beautiful environment. Can't wait for her next day-long!

This is my third time going to a day-long retreat at Green Gulch with Maille. She is a wonderful teacher with a kind and grounding presence. She creates an inviting and easeful environment. I always leave feeling peaceful, inspired, and rejuvenated. Green Gulch is a beautiful place to be immersed in nature and the lunch they serve is delicious! I cannot say enough good things about this experience and can't wait to go back for the next one!

What a lovely day!! A beautiful yurt space, on a gorgeous farm and zendo, delicious food, walk to the beach, and divine yoga as always from Maile. I will absolutely return for another retreat here with Maile

Green Gulch Retreat Day : September 24

This was a wonderful one-day retreat.  It totally recharged me.  Great yoga, great food, fantastic instructor... basically an all-around awesome day.  Thank you, Maile!!

The day was great, and I am glad I went. Maile paced the yoga and other activities -lunch, walk to the beach, free time_ very well. She is a wonderful yoga teacher, and the setting was lovely. 


The yoga retreat and the entire Galapagos Island experience with Maile Sivert were absolutely fantastic!

I signed up for this event expecting to attend a couple of the yoga classes and mostly enjoy the flora and fauna of the Galapagos. But because Maile is such a great yoga instructor (and was able to readily accommodate my very limited yoga experience while still offering a challenge to the more experienced members of the class) I attended every one of the twice daily classes throughout the week. I don't know if yoga will be a big part of my life going forward but I could not imagine a better way to practice than under Maile's instruction on a retreat such as this.

I had been anticipating amazing things from the Galapagos and this trip exceeded expectations. Maile had arranged a delightful combination of hiking, snorkeling, water and land based activities. These were all with the accompaniment of very friendly and knowledgeable naturalist guides. And, while each day and activity was planned in a way that left limited downtime, the connections and logistics were all so well orchestrated that it never felt overwhelming. I participated in all of the many activities as did nearly all of the attendees. 

The food was fantastic, with a great combination of meals prepared for us by the Semilla Verde lodge and the occasional meal in town including a fantastic waterfront restaurant. The staff at Semilla Verde were wonderfully attentive, always friendly, and ready with anything we might need. 

I don't need to really expound upon the majestic tortoises, sea turtles, tropical fish, sharks (nice friendly ones that are fun to swim with but small enough to be unthreatening! ;-)), marine iguanas, lava lizards, blue boobies, magnificent frigate birds and the rest except to say that seeing them was greatly enhanced by the perspectives of the naturalists who accompanied us. 

At one point early in the trip, I excitedly pointed out a giant tortoise that I spotted alongside the road to our guide. I was surprised by his non-plussed reaction. "Giant tortoises are like squirrels to me," he said. "They're just part of the background." But so it was for me at the end of the week, like a person leaving an all-you-can-eat buffet. 

How better to encapsulate the fulfillment of the visit than to say that after a week giant tortoises had become just a part of the expected background.

I will summarize by saying that this is a once in a lifetime trip that was so great I would love to do it again!

Galapagos Yoga + Wildlife Adventure with Maile Sivert

Yoga with Maile in the Galapagos is a must do!! Maile does an incredible job creating and holding a nurturing container for deepening your yoga practice, while also coordinating an amazing adventure and discovery of our natural world. The retreat space is beautiful, the food abundant and delicious, and the rooms are wonderful.  I am so delighted and grateful to have experienced the Galapagos Islands in this forum. Thank you Maile!!

Very great experience !
Accommodations, food, activities and interesting co-travelers
all made for an unforgettable experience!
Highly recommend!
