Mexico Yoga Retreat 2026
Celebration
We have hosted retreats here 5 times and we just have to go back for #6 and CELEBRATE!
Pack your bags and get ready to say sí, por favor! to sunshine, yoga, and soulful connection. Our upcoming retreat in beautiful Mexico is all about celebrating YOU—your body, your breath, your joy, and the gift of community. Imagine mornings flowing with energizing yoga, afternoons basking by the ocean, and evenings filled with laughter, delicious meals, and sunsets that feel like a fiesta for the soul.
Join Jennifer Pahl & Kim Gardner for an unforgettable, transformative, and rejuvenating 8 day/7 night retreat at The Sanctuary for Self Discovery “Xinalani” an exclusive Yoga Retreat Center just outside Puerto Vallarta, Mexico.
APRIL 4-11, 2026
This isn’t just a getaway—it’s a week-long celebration of life, movement, and togetherness. Whether you’re marking a personal milestone, seeking time to honor yourself, or simply craving the magic of travel with kindred spirits, this retreat is your invitation to pause, play, and revel in the beauty of the moment.
¡Vamos a celebrar! 🎉
“This retreat was the highlight of my year. The location, meticulous planning, attention to detail, and absolute 5-star level of love and care speak volumes about the two of you. You brought together a group of like-minded mostly total strangers and ignited our sisterhood. That was truly magical. And the yoga and teachings were awesome too! Thank you! Thank You!”
— Sandy
Celebrate it all … together
Imagine yourself here:
Day1: celebrate this moment!
Arrive, exhale, and land fully in the present. Feel the warmth of the sun on your skin, breathe in the salty ocean air, and let the sounds of nature guide you into stillness. Today is about awakening your senses—touch, smell, sight, sound, and feeling. Flow with your eyes open to take it all in, and then close them to turn inward and truly be here now. Root down to the earth so you can rise toward the sky.
Day 2: celebrate us all!
Today we honor the beautiful community that has gathered here. Each person brings their own energy, stories, and light to this circle. Through partner practices, shared meals, and laughter, we celebrate the power of connection. Together, we’ll create a supportive, uplifting space where we remember that joy multiplies when shared.
Day 3: celebrate your body!
Marvel at the miracle of your body and all that it can do. From toes to fingertips, balance to breath, we’ll explore the edges of comfort and curiosity. Notice how it feels to wobble, to steady, to push a little longer than feels easy—and how your breath supports you every step of the way. Stretch, soften, strengthen, and move with your own vibration. Today is a love letter to your body.
Day 5: celebrate this life!
Pause and reflect on the journey that brought you here. This is a day to honor your story, to feel gratitude for all the lessons, and to release what no longer serves you. Through practice and ritual, we’ll remember that we always have choice. Today is about claiming joy, presence, and freedom—because this life is worth celebrating.
Day 6: celebrate the possibilities of your future!
With every sunrise and every step onto your mat, you hold the power of intention. Who do you want to become? How do you want to feel? What vision do you want to carry forward? Today we’ll cultivate focus (drishti), clarity, and inner strength so you can step into your future with confidence and grace.
Day 7: celebrate this place!
Together, we’ll honor the sacredness of this land—the grounding earth beneath us, the vast ocean beside us, and the infinite sky above us. Through ceremony, gratitude, and mindful movement, we celebrate the natural beauty that holds and nourishes us throughout this retreat.
Day 8: celebrate, dance, shake, jump and set yourself up to soar!
Optional morning practice pending departure schedules to prep the body for travel.

Refunds and Cancellations:
If you notify us via email over 120 days before the Retreat start date that you wish to cancel, we will issue a refund of funds paid for your enrollment, minus the $500 non-refundable deposit .If you notify us via email less than 120 days and more than 90 days before the Retreat start date that you wish to cancel, we will issue a refund of funds paid for your enrollment, minus the $500 non-refundable deposit ONLY if you are able to find a replacement for your spot. This is your responsibility, NOT ours. If you are unable to fill your spot, you will remain responsible for the full cost of your reservation.
No refunds or credits are available for cancellations made within 90 days of the Retreat start date, regardless of the reason. This includes personal emergencies, illness, or any unforeseen circumstances. Additionally, no refunds or credits will be issued for no-shows, late cancellations, or early departures from the Retreat.
Double Room Cancellations:
If you are sharing a double occupancy room and you cancel at any time, you will be responsible for covering the additional cost of the room being converted to single occupancy for your roommate. This cost will apply regardless of when your cancellation occurs, as the other guest should not be financially penalized for your cancellation.
Why this policy is in place:
Our retreats are designed with shared accommodations in mind to offer a cost-effective and supportive experience. If a participant cancels from a double occupancy room, it imposes an unexpected financial burden on their roommate. This policy ensures fairness and allows us to provide a seamless, high-quality retreat experience for all attendees.
