Lake Atitlán is an energetically charged, 50 square mile, crater lake located in the western highlands of Guatemala.

 

Backdropped by colossal volcanoes, and cultural Mayan villages, the region exudes a sense of cosmic wonder. Standing on that enormous lakeshore, you’ll rarely again feel as tiny—or more alive. 

This retreat is an invitation to step out of your daily life and surround yourself with the magical energy of this sacred place. Practicing Yoga, exploring the colorful Mayan towns, and maybe participating in traditional ceremonies,   while connecting with like-minded humans. 

Find your tribe and find yourself at the healing vortex of Lake Atitlán!
