PILATES + YOGA
MEXICO RETREAT
A Sacred Return to the Gift of Movement
March 14–18, 2026 | Sayulita, MX
This retreat is an invitation to pause, breathe, and recognize the incredible gift it is to move your body. For 5 days in the lush beauty of Sayulita, Mexico we’ll come together in devotion to self-love through yoga, Pilates, and mindful practices - not to push, perfect, or perform, but to honor the strength, resilience, and wisdom our bodies carry every single day.
Oh… and did we mention WHALE WATCHING?!
You’ll Experience
Daily Yoga & Pilates
as rituals of reverence for your body’s strength and grace,
Breathwork & Meditation
to soften the mind and create spaciousness within.
Movement Based Self-Care
that nourishes without pressure, celebrating what your body can do rather than how it looks.
Mindfulness Practices
to anchor you into presence, gratitude, and inner clarity.
Community Living
where each moment is shared in connection, laughter, and support.
RETREAT SANCTUARY: LA JOYA RESORT
A hidden gem boutique hotel and retreat space where both radical aliveness and blissful rest awaits. Our home for this journey is La Joya Resort, a boutique sanctuary perched on Sayulita’s jungle-draped hillside with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean. Here, mornings begin with sunlit movement overlooking the waves, afternoons invite you to rest in nature’s embrace, and evenings close with nourishing meals and meaningful connection. Located just at the end of a cobblestone road, but just a short golf cart ride or walk from the surf pueblo of Sayulita.
And since March is whale-watching season, you may even catch the breathtaking sight of humpback whales migrating along the coastline, a living reminder of nature’s strength, beauty, and grace.

This retreat is not about detoxing to change who you are, it’s about clearing space to remember who you’ve always been: strong, capable, whole. Together, we’ll practice movement as self-love, mindfulness as nourishment, and community as medicine.

Think sacred reset meets soulful vacation. This retreat is designed to be grounding, nourishing, and joy-filled. The focus isn’t on pushing yourself harder or striving for perfection, it’s about honoring the gift of movement, reconnecting with your body, and giving yourself permission to slow down.
The vibe is laid-back luxury with a community feel: mornings with mindful movement overlooking the ocean, afternoons spent resting by the pool or journaling in the gardens, evenings filled with laughter, nourishing meals, and heartfelt connection. It’s a space where you can unplug, feel supported, and remember what it means to be fully present in your body, in nature, and in community.
