About this trip

We gather at the splendid Xinalani eco-resort, just south of Puerto Vallarta, for a week of yoga, astounding food, poolside sunsets, long walks on the beach, friendships both new and renewed, and... well, you get the idea. A deep recharge in a world gone slightly impossible. It's going to be magical.


• $500 deposit required to hold your space

• Refunds only allowed if we (or you) can find someone to fill your spot

• Vaccines required, because obviously

Here's a gallery of Xinalani's amazing room options, to help you select a package (below)


BE ADVISED: Xinalani is built into a steep, lush hillside. There are many (many, many) steep stairs to/from your room to the yoga space to the restaurant to the beach, and back again. This retreat assumes a reasonably able-bodied level of fitness, good humor, and glute-workout appreciation.

One of the Bay Area's premier yoga instructors *and* most provocative writers, Mark has been leading fiery Vinyasa classes, workshops and retreats in SF and around the world (and, most recently, via Zoom) since 1999. He's also a father, an author and was, for more than 20 years, an award-winning columnist at the SF Chronicle and SFGate.com (currently excommunicado). He was raised by long-eyelashed callipygian wood nymphs and spoon fed dark chocolate, raw pomegranate seeds, Shaiva Tantra mantras and artisan bourbon until he could fly.

What a wonderful week ! Mark is one of the best teacher I've ever met, reconnecting me with the depth and spirituality of my yoga practice, alongside it's challenges and playfulness. A week full of insights and magical encounters in a surreal place. Thank you !

Absolutely the intentional reset I needed. I had been feeling quite disconnected from yoga and from myself. Mark put a lot of thought and care into the experience to ensure you have the space to not only have a wonderful time but also take something with you after you leave. Xinalani is a beautiful place to really ground yourself and leave refreshed and renewed. Since I left the retreat, I have been practicing a morning ritual every day including yoga where I was only practicing intermittently before the retreat. I would do another retreat with Mark in a heartbeat if I had the time and funds.

This Trip was truly transformative. I am coming down from it at home after a few days and it was a completely necessary. Mark's approach and yoga practice is beautiful. There was a fire ceremony, a sweat lodge ceremony and a blue lotus tea ceremony. Your limbs were wrapped in kindness the entire time. There is no other way to describe it. Moving through the day meeting people where they are and knowing that there is always love. ❤️

The best retreat I've attended. Beautiful location with lots of unique spaces to spend time alone or with new friends. Top quality yoga, with well-balanced classes to allow for twice daily practice. Tasty, nourishing food and excellent, professional service. Everything was very well-organized. Truly grateful for this experience.
