With Romy Toussaint

romy yogaRetreat to Guatemala, the land of eternal spring.  Located on the southern border of Mexico, Guatemala with a largely native population and its Mayan culture, religion, costume, and community values. We begin with 6 days at Villa Sumaya, with the enchanting beauty and peace of Lake Atitlan where the elements of the earth are powerful and abundant.   Relax  and renew in the midst of exquisite nature and the panorama of three majestic volcanoes. Each day we will explore the elements in our bodies as we practice and meditate, surrounded by the spectacular lake ringed with volcanoes, great mountains and Indian villages.  You can swim, hike, kayak, visit local villages and have ample time to rest and replenish.  Choose to simply sit and be still while enjoying the stunning displays of light upon the waterin a hammock in the lush gardens of the retreat center. Feed the senses with an exquisite landscape and strengthen your connection with nature.

We end our journey spending our last (7th) day & night in the ancient city of Antigua! One of the Americas’ most enchanting colonial cities, in its day Antigua was one of the great cities of the Spanish empire. These days Antigua is a haven of tranquillity. The beauty of the city itself is the main attraction, particularly its neat cobbled streets and grand Baroque-style colonial buildings.

Single, Double & Triple Accommodations available ~ Space is Limited!
