June 1–6, 2026 | Maya Yoga Studio, Maui’s North Shore
Join Nicki Doane at her beautiful Maya Yoga Studio on Maui’s North Shore for a profound in-person retreat designed exclusively for dedicated practitioners and yoga teachers. This immersive week is your opportunity to reconnect with the heart of your practice through movement, study, and community.
This retreat brings together students of Maya Yoga for six days of exploration, connection, and transformation. Dive deeper into the principles that define Maya Yoga - alignment, breath, mindful movement - and yoga as a living spiritual practice.
On and off the mat, we’ll cultivate awareness, share insights, and strengthen the bonds that unite our growing mentorship community.
There will be opportunities to hike to glorious swimming holes under breathtaking water falls, lounge and play on the beach, and settle into the jungle with a book in hand.
To gather in community prior to the retreat and join and on-going community of dedicated teachers and students, join the Maya Yoga community here: join today.
Each day will include:
3-hour morning Maya Yoga practices
Beach afternoons to play
*Optional afternoon workshops to refine teaching and alignment skills *open to all, even if not a teacher
Catered vegetarian lunch each day on Nicki's incredible property
Time to connect in community, the land, and the spirit of Maui
*Note: check-in is 4pm on June 1 & check-out is 10am June 6 at Banyan Tree, so you'll bring your bags with you to class.
What began online now comes full circle in person. By gathering on Maui, we deepen our collective understanding and strengthen our shared commitment to the Maya Yoga lineage. You’ll return to your community more confident, inspired, and grounded - not just as a teacher, but as a connected and heart-centered human being.
This retreat is open to all who wish to attend, and will be focused on deepening your personal practice.
