A Magical Long Weekend of Practice, Sunshine, and Soul Connection If you think you need a week-long vacation to completely hit the reset button, you haven't spent a long weekend beach retreat with Yuval Samburski and the wonderful Gee. This short but incredibly potent getaway was the perfect cocktail of deep soul-work, beachside bliss, and fun. From the first afternoon sun to the final, golden sunset, every single moment felt intentional, rejuvenating, and deeply nourishing. Yuval’s ability to guide you inward is truly special. Having Gee there to assist made the weekend feel incredibly luxurious and safe. Gee ensured that everyone felt perfectly aligned and deeply taken care of throughout our retreat. Packing a full, transformative retreat experience into a long weekend is an art form, and Yuval is an absolute master. His daily yoga classes were beautifully sequenced—fluid, challenging, and deeply grounding. His Yoga Dance is a total standout experience… pure, uninhibited joy.. It allowed everyone to shake off residual stress, let go of expectations, and just celebrate being alive in our bodies. While the entire weekend was spectacular, the absolute pinnacle was the magical sound healing session. As we lay in restorative bliss, Yuval infused the space with his beautiful, soulful singing. His voice, paired with the healing vibrations of the instruments, was nothing short of transcendent. We were blessed with spectacular weather all weekend long. In between sessions, there was ample time for swimming and long beach walks. We cleared our minds to the sound of birds, wind and water while soaking up the much-needed sunshine. The group brought together a beautiful mix of familiar faces and wonderful new souls. Whether we were laughing over pizza or french toast bagels, sharing stories on beach walks, or sitting in sacred silence together, the sense of community and shared experience was instant and heartfelt. Yuval and Gee managed to squeeze a week's worth of magic, relaxation, and transformation into one long weekend. I returned home sun-kissed, stretched out, well-fed, and deeply content. If you ever get the chance to grab a spot on a retreat with this dream team, do not hesitate!

This was my fifth retreat in Jamesport with Uvy and G, and somehow it keeps getting better every year! What makes this experience so special is the incredible community—kind, compassionate, like-minded people who come together to create something truly meaningful. The friendships, laughter, and sense of belonging are real and lasting. We had an unforgettable Sound Healing session at one of the most spiritual places of Long Island too… The art exhibitions are inspiring, the food is amazing, and the fun is genuine. But above all, the yoga is simply the best I’ve experienced anywhere in the Northeast. Every session leaves me feeling stronger, more centered, and deeply grateful. Thank you, Uvy and G, for creating another unforgettable experience and for giving us the opportunity to find joy, connection, and renewal alongside such an amazing group of human beings. I am already looking forward to next year!

My trip to Guatemala with Yuval and Anne was exactly as advertised. I felt the magic within as well as the magic of the lake, the culture and our hosts. I felt very well taken care of and safe. The setting was lovely. All of the experiences offered were very thoughtful, meaningful and fun. A true testimony to a good trip is what I take home with me. I am home and still feel the magic! Thank you Yuval and Anne and to the wonderful group of humans you rounded up to share this experience with me and to the warm people of Guatemala.

This was my fourth yoga retreat with Yuval and first with Anne. Their combined teaching styles and energy were perfect for offering a great experience for everyone who was there! They were available to provide any and all support needed to ensure participants felt safe and cared for. The spa retreat in Guatemala was beautiful and the employees were very helpful and made you feel welcomed. I look forward to my fifth yoga retreat with Yuval… wherever it is!
