What a fantastically organized Mexico trip. This company took a lot of time and effort before the trip to make sure we were prepared for activities and it made such a difference. From transportation to accommodation everything was super. I thought this retreat was an awesome value. The excursions were fun and each day was well thought out. The instructors Desi and Natalya were fabulous and fun to be around. I highly recommend this company.

From start to finish this was an amazing experience! The Zoetry Casa Del Mar Los Cabos provided a beautiful backdrop for this retreat with a beautiful suite, gorgeous views, good food and great amenities. I made new friends along the way and found our sessions inspiring and transformative. What could be better than yoga sessions looking out at the Pacific Ocean! Thank you for this amazing opportunity Desi and Dr. Natiya. I left feeling relaxed and centered and I am grateful for the opportunity to have been a part of this retreat.
