"We are homesick for the places we have never known"
Tulum Women’s Yoga Retreat
with Amelia Travis & Rachel Perez
Tulum, Riviera Maya, Mexico
April 3-7, 2019
Escape with us to Tulum, Mexico, where the jungle meets the ocean, for an elemental balance yoga retreat designed to nourish and revitalize your life and invite you into powerful connection with a group of amazing women!
Finding Balance in the Jungle
The “Elemental Balance” Tulum Women’s Yoga Retreat aligns with our Libra natures: we are constantly seeking balance. In this five day, four night escape to the Mayan riviera, we’ve created an incredible offering which seamlessly balances wellness and indulgence.
◊
Whether your life needs a little bit more green juice, adventure and fitness; silent meditation, tranquility and stillness; or a healthy dose of margaritas, belly laughs, and reckless abandon — this retreat has what you need. We know, babe, we need it too!
◊
Balance can be very difficult to find in today’s crazy culture which idealizes and glorifies being busy. As women, we rarely tend to our most important obligation: caring for ourselves. Let’s take this time to return to the balanced center of who we really are — the place where we can thrive.

Retreat Vibe & Agenda
Each day has been curated to restore harmony to our unique rhythms. In adventurous exploration, we’ll balance the elements of earth, air, fire, and water through intentional yoga practices and activities designed to get us back into our life’s perfect balance. Imagine hiking through the jungle to a beautiful beach where will apply clay straight from the earth in a traditional Mayan mud bath, meditating in the breezes of the Mayan riviera, swimming in cenotes and paddling the crystal waters of the Caribbean, and burning off what we don’t need in a traditional Temezcal.
◊
Twice daily yoga will also be offered in yin/yang styles to balance body, mind, spirit. Morning sessions will be dynamic hatha flow or creative vinyasa; evening sessions will be calming, nourishing restorative or yin.
◊
Evenings can be spent stargazing under the new moon in the warm beach air, hanging in the pool with newfound friends and an umbrella cocktail, or enjoying your luxuriously appointed room with a good book, a face mask, and a mug of herbal tea.

Tulum Women’s Yoga Retreat is for you if:
Caring for others has taken priority over caring for yourself.
Between working hard at your profession, school, or family, you need some time to play.
Tropical beach reset with awesome women sounds like just what the doctor ordered.
Recovering from grief, addiction, trauma or just need healing.
Yoga is a bit new to you but you want to go deeper (or you’ve never done yoga!)
Experienced yogi but prefer a women’s yoga retreat that doesn’t take itself too seriously.
Kids/partner/boss/pets/parents/teachers driving you bananas.
Driving yourself bananas and you’ve gotta lose the stress.
You just need some space to breathe.
Your heart feels called to this: it’s for a reason. Come.
About the Teachers
We really like yoga, green juice, wellness, and diving deep into exploration of the Spirit. We thrive on dark chocolate, dance parties, and staying up just a little too late. And we LOVE adventuring with a group of women who are fearless, friendly, and fun. We have hosted six incredible yoga retreats together over the past few years. Our synergy springs from our core belief that women thrive through connection, community, and sisterhood. Our guiding principle, ‘Fete des Femmes,’ translates to party of women (or lady party!) and the spirit of it is honoring each woman’s unique gifts and forging friendships which extend well beyond the retreat. April 2019, it’s a “fiesta de mujeres” as we venture south to the Caribbean side of Mexico an adventure to top them all!

Without exceptions, this retreat is for all women, all ages, all body types, all races, all creeds. Come as you are, and let us help you leave as you want to be.
◊
Why just women? We find that there is something magical that happens in the nurturing environment of like-minded women. We are able to let our guards down, be vulnerable, silly, and wild, with zero judgments or expectations.

We promise, you won’t regret it.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Four days and three nights of belly laughs, inside jokes, sun, salt, sand, and seriously awesome people! This four day retreat was built to celebrate Stoked Yogi founder Amelia’s 30th birthday in true stoked yogi style – sun-kissed and buzzed on champagne, yoga, and the salt air of the Pacific ocean. We will paddle and SUP yoga in the ocean, practice feel-good vinyasa flow on the beach to the tunes of Trevor Hall, enjoy s’mores around the evening bonfire, hike to a Big Sur waterfall, have a limo dance party on the way to a no-stretchy-pants dinner, bond over tarot readings and share deep talks over a glass of wine on our oceanfront deck as the sun sinks over the horizon and paints colors on the sky. We promise rainbows and unicorns. Tequila and glow sticks. Secret sharing, bonding, and lots and lots of laughter. A weekend you’ll never forget, with no mistakes and no regrets.
