Have you ever been somewhere magical? A place that may not be easy to get to, but once you get there you never want to leave, and once you leave all you can think of is getting back. What if you were there with the people you love the most? Discover yourself and your family through clear eyes at our Family Yoga & Surf Retreat. Your family, who you will get to truly see at their best, as you all take a giant exhale, disconnect from the world and connect to each other.
What are we going to do? Whatever you want. There will be daily offerings of yoga, meditation and breathwork, kid's yoga and family yoga. There will be surf, surf for all levels, surf lessons and warm turquoise water. There will be bikes, paddleboards and chocolate sand. There will be healthy, delicious food...really, really good food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There will be games, growth sessions, massage, horseback rides, night swims and more. But you don't have to do any of it, you can do whatever you want. It is just you, any version of your family and the uncharted waters of what lies within each of us. Space is limited, book your spot today.
