About this Retreat
The mission of Tybee Wellness Retreats is to create a safe, nurturing, and fun atmosphere for those who are “seekers”.
What began as a personal journey sparked a passion to share what I have learned so that others can create a calmer, more fulfilling, and connected life for themselves. My deep desire to help other women take back control of their lives propelled me to curate a spectacular group of professionals who are at their best helping others.
I am a native of Savannah and I have resided on Tybee Island for 16 years. Through my 20 plus years of experience in the hospitality industry, I have created an opportunity for you to rest, restore and relate on a deeper level with yourself and those around you.
I am a Certified Holistic Nutritionist through the American Fitness Professionals & Associates and a Certified Group Fitness Trainer through IFTA, 200hr Yoga instructor with Yoga Renew, certified Spiritual Coach.
Laurie Kinkel has lived full-time on beautiful Tybee Island since 2001. She discovered yoga in 1997 while studying performing arts at Akron University in Ohio. She has evolved her practice and teaching ever since.
She received her RYT 200hr training with Marianne Wells Yoga School at the Goddess Garden Eco resort in Cahita, Costa Rica in 2017. There she gained knowledge from teacher Marianne Wells who, in the early 1980s, studied with B.K.S. Iyengar, the father of Iyengar yoga.
Iyengar yoga is alignment based yoga with the use of props to aid in performing asana. Since receiving her Iyengar yoga certification, she has added certified Pranayama training through Svastha Yoga & Ayurveda Institute. Pranayama is the yogic practice of focusing on the breath to elevate life energies.
She specializes in teaching many different classes on the beach and around Tybee & Savannah including all levels of Hatha yoga, full moon yoga, gentle yoga, kitten yoga, bachelorette yoga, senior yoga, and kids’ yoga.
Lauri is the founder of Tybee Yoga and Healing Arts.
Details of this retreat
Reconnect with your inner compass and embrace the wisdom of your soul.
Intuition is a powerful skill that can be nurtured and developed. Have you ever felt an unmistakable sense of ease – or discomfort – after making a decision? That’s your intuition speaking.
Unfortunately, societal norms, expectations, and past traumas often cloud this inner voice, leading us away from our true selves, causing confusion and doubt.
Join us for an immersive retreat in Guatemala, designed to help you reconnect with your intuition.
Through a harmonious blend of silence, movement, laughter, and nourishing experiences, you’ll learn to trust the innate wisdom that resides within you. This journey will empower you to let your body guide your mind, fostering decisions that resonate with your true self.
When your body speaks, are you ready to listen?
