“The place in the Mountains is incredible, the retreat was so full of Love and power, silence if you need, company if you want, tranquility and adventure available.”

 

“This was my first Yoga Retreat and I would say that María and Gaia planned this absolutely well for the overall daily morning and evening activities, they sensed what each of us needed and provided such enrichment whether it was energetic, strength building, restorative, or relaxation. La Selva embodies that holistic and yogi vibe. I enjoyed getting to know each yogi and making lifelong friendships. And not to forget to mention the food during the retreat -Fantastico!”

 

“Excellent trip, very good for wellbeing. Nice mix of activities and free time. Beautiful location and excellent food. Hill challenging, worth it for views. All friendly people. Nice number of people as a whole. Sharing accomodation wasn’t what I’d normally do but worked out OK.”
