Mystical Mayan Yoga Retreat
with Katie & Declan of Dragonfly Yoga & Ayurveda
Villa Sumaya Retreat, Lake Atitlan, Guatemala!
October 28th-November 4th, 2017
Join Katie and Declan on a mystical yoga adventure in Guatemala’s volcanic highlands at the exquisite Villa Sumaya Retreat on beautiful Lago Atitlan for a gorgeous week of yoga overlooking the lake, sumptuous organic vegetarian meals, beautiful bungalows, each with a sweeping view of the magnificent volcanoes, and so much more! Yoga classes feature Vinyasa Flow, Yin, Restorative, Yoga Nidra, as well as pranayama and meditation to help you connect to the elements and energy of this wondrous location. So many optional excursions could fill your days with hiking, kayaking, bodywork, visiting local villages via boat taxi, and shopping in the markets… too many excursions to list! Or you can sunbathe on the dock, nap in a hammock, soak in the solar hot tub or steam in the sauna, not to mention relaxing in the healing pool or wandering the lush jungle pathways adorned with beautiful flowers! Check out this Yoga Journal Article on the place we’ll be staying!!
ROOMS: Each room is beautifully furnished and uniquely decorated with authentic Mayan tapestries and handicrafts. All rooms have either a veranda or porch overlooking the lake and volcanoes, so beautiful, you will never want to leave! Rates include three nourishing organic vegetarian meals per day, twice daily yoga classes, and a transformational Mayan Fire Ceremony to close our amazing week together. Guests can add spa treatments, excursions, hiking, kayaking, and so much more!
Katie’s last visit here was for a month in 2006, and the retreat center has grown exponentially in beauty, services, and in its consciousness since then. Local Mayan villagers, farmers, and artists continue to work in tandem with the retreat to provide us with amazing service, food, excursions, and an authentic cultural experience in the heart of the Guatemalan highlands. “You will be amazed by the beauty here! I am so excited to lead a retreat after ten years of being away! Guests will love everything about this magical place and its wonderful people!” ~Katie, E-RYT 500, Ayurveda Health Practitioner and Ayurveda Yoga Specialist, Thai Yoga Therapist, Reiki II Practitioner, Director: Dragonfly Yoga Teacher Trainings, and owner Dragonfly Yoga & Ayurveda, Studio & Retreat Center, NH
