Join us on a serene journey where we merge self-care with the well-being of the local community and the planet.

This retreat is held in a private home in the mountains surrounding the pristine Lake Atitlán in Guatemala; a home that has been with a local family for over four generations.

Small groups in a luxurious setting, the Kind Retreat is a weeklong getaway offering yoga twice a day, additional yoga workshops, journaling sessions, a community service project, and visits to local villages.

Our signature Retreat to Revive is mindfully curated for you to discover the transformative power of self-compassion and empathy. Take time for yourself. Give back to others. Reconnect to your inner peace, your passions. Revive your soul.

Together, let us create a ripple effect of positive change that extends far beyond our retreat, leaving a lasting impact on individuals, communities, and the world we all call home.

Upcoming trips and itinerary details coming soon.

Private retreats can be curated for your group.

Testimonials

  • The retreat ... was like nothing else I have experienced in my life.

    I signed up for my first yoga retreat in Guatemala with little knowledge of the area, and only taking Karla’s classes a few times.

    They hired a private chef team to prepare every meal with allergy specifications met for each retreat attendee.

    The custom food, house, property, and level of care provided is unmatched.

    I have not felt appreciated and tended to like that since I was a little girl being closely doted on by my mother, with no present stress and all the love.

    The change that I have carried with me since that trip has been significant. It took me a while to really explain what shifted since being home.

    I came for the yoga and was floored by the rich culture in the bordering towns that lit up every turn, showing us what really matters.

    I left feeling more grounded, confident, and peaceful.

    It’s been two months since my time in Guatemala and the balance in my mental health has continued to remain in that heightened state of knowing and trust for all yet to come.

    I would recommend this one of a kind trip for anyone who needs a reset or a reminder of how we’re all here to help each other find our way.

    Thank you to Karla and her amazing team for doing what they do better than most and sharing your special dream.

  • I was never wanting for anything...

    This retreat was seamlessly handled from the moment I arrived at the airport - from transportation to lodging. I was never wanting for anything, and appreciate Karla's tenacity for reading a room. It made for a luxurious, culturally immersive and restful week that is totally unmatched.

  • Felt like I’d gone to heaven for the week!

    Most of my life, I’ve needed a vacation AFTER my vacation! This is truly the first one where I’ve felt completely relaxed! The surroundings, the gorgeous home, food, service and outings were too beautiful to be real! Felt like I’d gone to heaven for the week! Karla has a unique way of molding into the scenery and becoming one with it. Her talent and softness in teaching yoga is seamless. Just the right amount of relaxation and cultural immersion. I can’t wait to come back!!!!
