Winter Reset in Mexico
Yoga, Movement and Stillness in Chacala, Mexico
February 1-8, 2025
Join me at Mar de Jade, a magical spot I’m excited to be returning to for my forth time. This retreat will be a true reset, a perfect week away to move, play, heal, breath, relax, recharge and recalibrate your system.
We'll have 2-3 classes a day overlooking the ocean (with a more active morning practice, a movement exploration and a restorative afternoon session), eat delicious local food, swim in the pool or explore our very own private section of the beach. The practice sessions will meet you where you’re at with balanced yoga and movement for the whole body, helping you recalibrate and act as a form of compassionate self-inquiry.
We’ll have lots of space and free time to explore the surrounding nature, visit the local fishing village, walk the beach, try one of the local excursions (like the organic farm that grows the food we eat), get a healing treatment, relax in a hammock or one of the lounging areas on the property, or just rest in your room.
Mar de Jade is located in the charming fishing village of Chacala, Nayarit, nestled between the tropical jungle and a pristine and private sandy beach, only 90 minutes north of the Puerto Vallarta airport.
Student Testimonials
"All the elements come together in this retreat - masterful and enthusiastic teacher, varied practice schedule accommodates all levels, beautiful natural setting on the beach, amazing fresh and delicious meals every day, a group experience that brings together the humanity of living in this world...I felt gratitude at the end of each day falling asleep to the rhythm of the surf" (Mexico Reset)
“Scott creates a welcoming and inclusive space on retreat, and within that safe container magic happens! I also must sing the praises of the retreat centre, Mar de Jade – exceptionally beautiful surroundings, attentive service, and delicious healthy food – a truly special place. This retreat is exactly what my spirit needed – compassionate and inviting yet guided and supported by Scott’s skill and expertise. I learned new things, made new friends, and advanced on my own personal journey. In Lao Tzu’s words, “kind words elicit trust. Kind thoughts create depth. Kind deeds bring love.” On this retreat kindness in all its manifestations is what lingers, sowing seeds of trust, depth, and love in my life.” (Mexico Reset)
