Join Susannah van der Wende for 6 nights / 7 days in the stunning archipelago of Bocas Del Toro, Panama!
Bocas del Toro is world renowned for having one of Central America's largest and most biodiverse rainforests, as well as unbelievably beautiful and pristine beaches. This trip will be the perfect blend of relaxation, fun in the sun, and a deep dive into your yoga practice, which let’s be honest, we will all need come March!
Susannah will be offering two, always optional, yoga classes daily. Sessions will be challenging enough, but also designed to meet all levels. Immerse in your practice with Susannah’s light hearted approach and knowledgeable guidance while in the presence of paradise.
Free time can be spent soaking up the sun on our near private beach, relaxing by the pool, biking to hidden beaches, exploring hiking trails around the retreat center, horseback riding, snorkeling, scuba diving, and experiencing the local culture of Bocas del Toro. The optional excursions are very affordable and allow you the opportunity to create your own perfect week. Be as active or relaxed as you like!
