Guatapé Colombia
Yoga Retreat
- POSTPONED! -

Sit Back, Relax and Practice

Join Katie Schiffgen, Perry Layne, Shazzy Tapias and James Hardy, for our second 'OM'AZING yoga retreat in the beautiful, lakeside paradise of Guatapé, Colombia!  Relax in the peaceful, waterfront resort Hotel PietraSanta, tucked away in its own inlet on lake Guatapé, located on a nature preserve.  Hone in your yoga/meditation practice with daily classes, enjoy breathtaking views on hikes, bathe and swim in the temperate lake, lounge in a hammock, on the grassy hillside, or on the beach of the resort, tap into nature from the comfort of your own cabaña and experience the best farm to table meals this country has to offer.  

Along with the beauty, tranquility, and fun of Pietrasanta, we will explore the nearby town of Guatapé (called the most colorful town in the world) for shopping, food, and local entertainment. We will also climb the stairs to the summit of one of the most famous natural attractions in Guatapé, the sacred rock monolith "El Peñon."

We are excited to explore this beautiful country with all of our favorite yogis. View the video from our previous retreat below (videography by Perry Layne Productions) for a tour of Pietrasanta and a look at Lake Guatapé.

Each day we will offer at least one Power Yoga class and at least one softer, more gentle class. The Power class will be a dynamic and energetic class and will require a basic knowledge of the physical postures... however, plenty of modifications will be given and there is ALWAYS room to listen to your own body and take it at your own pace. The softer practice will be accessible to all levels of practitioners. Meditation will be held each morning for about 30 minutes. Everything is optional.
