About this trip

Join Katy Brooks and Morgan Lowrey on a 5 day, 4 night refreshing retreat to Tulum! On this retreat we focus on unwinding and unplugging at a laid back, eco friendly resort- a perfect time to do a lot of relaxing and a little yoga. Come solo or bring a friend, spouse, neighbor...even if they don't love yoga (yet!) Everyday we will enjoy local, organic food prepared fresh by the Amansala chefs.

Reviews

This retreat was everything I wanted it to be. The destinations was very relaxing, but could also be as exhilarating as you wanted it to be. Lots of good excursions offered here. My favorite thing was the yoga taught by Morgan and Katy. They are both fun and professional teachers. I could tell Katy takes her business seriously, and is very warm and genuine. Thank you for a wonderful and unforgettable experience girls!!!
