It’s not just about unplugging...

It’s about rediscovering what happens when we truly plug-in to life.

Awaken your true spirit and completely disconnect in the jungle of the Dominican Republic. Here you can rediscover those forgotten rhythms of long days, easy nights and the feeling of peace.

Designed for you to fully disconnect from the virtual world (no wifi or cellular service) and reconnect with yourself, your breath, and the magical healing powers of nature. 

It’s not just an escape to the jungle...

It's an awakening experience.

Location: Samana is a unique province of the Dominican Republic. It has beautiful beaches , lush jungle, hidden waterfalls, charming villages, and a very cool vibe.

Yoga: Maki’s classes will be crafted to deepen the layers of your practice as you are exposed to different styles and tools for personal and spiritual growth.  We will have daily Yoga practice with asana, Pranayama, and Meditation, as well as a full moon Cacao ceremony and plenty of time for group and self reflection.

Nourishment: All meals during the retreat will be cooked with ingredients from local farms with vegetarian options available.

Community: We believe the most regenerative experience can happen in community. From morning practices to full moon bonfires, we’ll journey together.

Yoga lover, teacher and forever student.
