On all levels this trip tugged at my heartstrings and changed my life. Erin created a communal and welcoming atmosphere starting on day one with openness, intention, and acceptance. I will forever remember this trip as the ultimate start of 2025 because of the amazing friends surrounding me and our more than helpful teacher, Erin. Everybody was there for each other, open to curiousness and play, present with open ears and hearts, and with the common interest of growth. The Still Salty team as well was extremely accommodating and nothing short of paradise!! I very much look forward to coming back next year! Thank you so much Erin!!!!💜
Erin's yoga retreat to Nicaragua was transformative and simply amazing. This was my first time to Nicaragua, and Erin shepherded us all through the process of arriving and travelling to the retreat, making it a breeze to show up ready to restore and relax. Erin immediately created a warm environment among a diverse group of strangers who quickly became friends, making sure everyone felt welcome and included.
Erin had developed a series of interconnected yoga practices that we flowed through during the whole week, practices that were both fully accessible and comfortable for new yogis, while providing plenty of challenge to the more experience. I can easily say my practice rose to a higher level after this one week of dedicated focus on my own yoga practice with Erin's guidance and caring attention.
In between practices, Erin helped organize amazing opportunities for the group, from boating through the mangroves to testing our coordination with salsa dancing. Just as important, Erin's retreat offered an amazing opportunity to disconnect and rediscover the value of relaxing deeply in this most beautiful place. Ocean waves became the soundtrack to lounging in a hammock, lounging in the pool, or resting on the warm sandy beach in between ocean swims.
Before the week was over, we were already asking Erin when we'd be able to come back and do this all again. I came without a concept of just how much I needed a retreat like this in my life, and I came away certain that I'll be first to sign up for Erin's next yoga retreat.
