Join Jorge for our next Yoga Journey to Mexico City for Dia de los Muertos! We will delve deeply into Mexican culture through the lens of the Day of the Dead. Le Meridien on Paseo de la Reforma will be our host hotel for this magical 5-night six-day adventure.
The trip will offer morning yoga and delicious breakfast followed by a curated and one-of-a-kind itinerary that will present an authentic and exclusive version of Day of the Dead. Each day will be balanced between group activities and free time for you to explore the city. Some of our highlights will include a night visit to Xochimilco on Trajineras and visits to local cemeteries and Death Markets.
We will also be watching the Dia de Muertos Parade from an exclusive location while we enjoy some of the best food and drinks in Mexico City. Our day trips will all be done through private transportation and with the support of our incredible guide Maricel Vargas.
In addition to a series of other cultural sights, some optional group meals will be planned to present some of the city's incredible gastronomy and nightlife! Our group will remain small to maintain a sense of intimacy and exclusivity, so space is limited.

Jorge has spent many years focusing on and curating Destination retreats that will delight your senses, develop your yoga practice, and leave you feeling rejuvenated. We offer two types of retreats, International and Domestic.
Domestic Retreats:
These retreats are for serious and dedicated students looking for a true retreat. Domestic retreats are often hosted at retreat centers, offering seclusion, peace and a return to self. These retreats have multiple practices per day and an educational component that will vary based on the group. Areas of focus can include, chanting, Yoga Nidra, star gazing, painting workshop, conflict resolution, Yoga philosophy and personal development.
International Retreats:
If you are looking for an amazing getaway with a yoga slant…..this is the trip for you. These trips are luxury based. Our accommodations are unique locations that offer historical and local culture with every comfort in mind. Daily morning practices start your day and are followed up with private tours with curated itineraries. Gastronomy and artistic experiences are planned to exceed your expectations. Jorge and his family are extraordinarily proud of being Mexican, therefore most of the international retreats take place at the most beautiful locations throughout Mexico.
