About this Retreat
Your Guides
Elizabeth Jane “EJ” (E-RYT 500, Certified Sound Healer and Breathwork Facilitator) creates a safe, nurturing space that allows for a bit of magic, inner healing, and moments to touch the divine within us. She has served as lead teacher for multiple 200hr Yoga Teacher Trainings around the world from India, to Malta, to Indonesia, to Mexico. She founded and hosts a Sound Healing Certification Course in Breckenridge, Colorado. To her, these ancient tools (Breathwork, Sound, and Yoga) serve as profound medicine that help us return to our inquisitive, joyful, natural Self.

Accommodation
The Jungle Accommodations are simple, comfortable, and surrounded by nature. The property is lush with greenery, regional flowers, and swaying palms. From your outdoor yoga shala, you will see over 100 species of plans, numerous breeds of regional birds, and bushes filled with bright red hibiscus flowers. Students will stay in apartments that are designed for either shared group or single occupancy preferences. All students will have their own beds in a shared or private room. Each apartment has a washroom - there is also a washroom at the Shala and a shower near the pool. Rooms are cooled with Caribbean breeze and fans. We aim to keep our eco-footprint small. This is supported by not using AC. We ask that students are gentle on the resources, the island is limited in supply.

The school is located just off the Caribbean shoreline. Students get to enjoy being less than a three minutes walk away from the secluded beaches of the Caribbean in both directions. Easily enjoyed are the calm swimming waters of the west, or the breezy cliff edges on the east.
Students can walk the relaxed streets in either direction to find swimming and shopping areas, live music, and even cultural centers. Less than 500 meters south of the school is the sacred traditional land of Punta Sur.
