Welcome to Rebel Yoga Retreats

Rebel is not just a retreat.

It is an awakening. A remembering. A way of being. A practice of showing up fully in your life while creating meaningful impact in the world around you.

Rebel Yoga Retreats are living sanctuaries for radical belonging and radical optimism—within yourself and in the world around you.

Here, you are invited to step fully into yourself: grounded, untamed, and open-hearted, while being held in a circle that uplifts, expands, and strengthens the collective.

Through travel, breathtaking landscapes, meaningful cultural experiences, deep conversations, and wild fun—something begins to open. You expand. You remember how to love—more deeply and more freely—yourself, others, and the world around you.

This is your invitation to reclaim your place, your power, and your belonging alongside others who are rising boldly and living fully.

It is time to embrace and elevate your most authentic, untamed self.

Welcome to Rebel in Paraty

WE ARE SO EXCITED TO BRING YOU TO OUR HOMELAND!! Marcela and I grew up exploring this extraordinary regions, and we are so thrilled to finally share it with you!!

Nestled between the lush mountains of the Atlantic Rainforest, pristine beaches, waterfalls, and winding rivers lies Aldeia Rizoma—a hidden sanctuary where nature, simplicity, and connection exist in perfect harmony.

Located in the region of Paraty, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its remarkable blend of preserved culture and protected landscapes, this retreat unfolds in a place where history, nature, and community dance together in rare balance.

Surrounded by vibrant jungle, cascading waterfalls, and a crystal-clear river flowing through the land, Aldeia Rizoma invites us to slow down, reconnect, and remember what matters most. Inspired by ancestral Indigenous wisdom and architecture, the villas were designed in quiet dialogue with the forest—spaces that feel grounding, intentional, and deeply connected to the land.

Throughout the week, we'll wander the colorful cobblestone streets of historic Paraty, hike the breathtaking coastline of Trindade, explore by boat the untamed beauty of Saco do Mamanguá—Brazil's only tropical fjord—and discover hidden beaches, waterfalls, and forest trails while immersing ourselves in the extraordinary biodiversity of the Mata Atlântica.

As with every Rebel Yoga Retreat, this journey is about far more than the places we'll visit.

It is about slowing down enough to hear your own wisdom.

It is about reconnecting with what makes you feel most authentic.

It is about gathering with extraordinary humans, sharing meaningful experiences, and remembering that we were never meant to do this life alone.

Together, we'll move, explore, laugh, rest, reflect, and create the kind of memories that stay with us long after we return home.

Welcome to Paraty, Brasil!

Welcome to radical belonging.

Welcome to untamed living.

Welcome to Rebel.
