Ashtanga x Elevation:
A Guatemala Immersion
Join Isabel and Heather for their third annual Ashtanga retreat abroad—this year, we journey to the lush Guatemalan Highlands! This is more than a retreat; it's an invitation to use the powerful backdrop of the mountains surrounding Antigua to elevate your practice and elevate your mind.
Earth Lodge
We will spend the week at Earth Lodge, a beautiful boutique wellness resort nestled at 5,000 feet of elevation, just 15 minutes outside of Antigua. This unique sanctuary offers stunning, elevated views, a commitment to sustainability, and accommodation that includes private tree houses, cabins, and geo domes. Your stay includes access to:
Farm-to-Table Dining: Enjoy fresh, locally sourced cuisine that fuels your mind and body.
Custom Wellness Rituals: We will help you create a custom self-care ritual utilizing the many services the lodge has to offer, such as the traditional Mayan temezcal sauna, ice baths, massages at the Tree House Spa, nature trails, and shamanic ceremonies.
Elevate Your Practice & Your Mind
This week is designed to use the physical altitude to inspire mental altitude:
Ashtanga Yoga: Heather Serna (SYC Authorized L2 Teacher) will guide us through a full week of traditional Mysore-style and Led Primary classes.
Complementary Practice: Isabel will lead relaxing Yin-style classes in the afternoon, mixed with pranayama and meditation.
Adventure Awaits: When we aren't practicing, we will explore the area through local hikes, cultural and culinary experiences, and an excursion into the charming, historic town of Antigua.
Join us in the Guatemalan Highlands to elevate your practice, immerse yourself in culture and tradition, and return home with an elevated perspective.
