We can't wait to support you on this sacred and transformational path. Whether you're called to teach or simply to deepen your relationship with yoga, this journey is about union—of mind, body, and soul. Let’s walk it together.
An ancient future awaits us in Oaxaca. Join Robin Samples and Ricardo Yellow Bird as they travel to this vibrant mystical city in the heart of Mexico for a week-long retreat. Get ready for adventure, joyful living, and a realignment with simplicity.
Immerse yourself in the native culture and traditions dating back thousands of years. We will meet with locals and connect to the beauty of the city that Ricardo once called home.
Each morning we will harmonize as a group through movement and meditation. We will have time to adventure through the city during the day, and gather together as a group for ceremonial experiences throughout the week. We offer 4 traditional ceremonies for the group, including an evening of plant medicine.
We plan to eat one larger meal together each day, whether we enjoy a homecooked at our house by our wonderful friend or out at one of the delicious local restaurants. There will have snacks available throughout the week. The rest of your meals will be on your own, as many enjoy eating their way though this city’s fantastic food scene. Oaxaca has so much delicious flavors to explore.
We will align as a group, about 20 days before we travel to begin to synchronize with the mayan calendar and begin our journey together. This trip will foster deeper connections with yourself and each other.
The Stay:
We’re staying in a
beautiful 12 bedroom home in downtown Oaxaca. Each room has one
full/queen sized bed with a private bathroom and shower. We have a
private rooftop for yoga with a rustic rooftop view of the
mountains. Rooms may be shared and we require you to book with your
friend or partner.
The Dates: Nov 8-15, 2025
The Cost:
$2500 for a single room
$1800 for a shared room (you recruit the friend to share with)
Flights to be booked and paid for on your own.
*There are opportunities to extend your trip. Reach out directly
