About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Hi, I'm Shawna Nichol, a certified 500 RYT yoga instructor and a dedicated wellness advocate. With years of experience in corporate leadership (MBA, IE Business School, Madrid) and a lifelong passion for fitness, I understand the importance of finding balance in a busy world. After a decade in Miami, I’ve returned to share my expertise in yoga, Pilates, and wellness in stunning retreat destinations that inspire transformation.
Shawna's Signature Wellness Offerings
Yoga & Movement
Experience yoga sessions tailored for all levels — from invigorating Vinyasa flows that awaken your energy to deeply restorative Yin practices that soothe the nervous system. Shawna’s thoughtful sequencing and hands‑on adjustments ensure that every posture cultivates alignment, strength, and fluidity, guiding you to a balanced body and a centered mind.
Pilates & Strength
Build core stability and body awareness with classical Pilates classes designed to challenge and support you in equal measure. Using mats and light equipment, you’ll engage in exercises that strengthen your deep abdominal muscles, improve posture, and foster graceful movement — laying the foundation for everyday vitality.
Mindfulness & Connection
Deepen your inner awareness through guided breathwork, meditation, and intention‑setting ceremonies. These practices are interwoven throughout the retreat to foster mental clarity, emotional resilience, and authentic connection — both with yourself and your fellow participants — creating a supportive container for personal growth.
Stunning Locations
Each retreat is set in a handpicked destination chosen for its natural beauty and cultural resonance. From the misty hills of Sintra to the rugged coastline near Cape Town, from the sun‑drenched shores of Croatia’s Adriatic to the historic charms of Cartagena, our venues provide the perfect backdrop for renewal, inspiring you to explore both inner and outer worlds.
