Restore & Recharge in La Paz, Mexico

Join us from February 25th to March 1st 2027 for a rejuvenating yoga retreat at the beautiful Hotel Catedral, hosted by Yoga Sanctuary and Just Add Yoga.

Escape the winter blues to the serene beauty of La Paz, Mexico, where welcoming skies meet the tranquil turquoise waters of the Sea of Cortez. This inclusive experience invites you to connect with yourself and others in a warm, community environment.

Each day features uplifting yoga sessions. Following our practice you will have the opportunity to relax by the rooftop pool (perhaps with a good book and a refreshing margarita in hand) , explore the vibrant town, stroll along the iconic malecon, or enjoy one of the stunning nearby beaches.

Included in your retreat is a day trip to the stunning Espiritu Santo Island, the most iconic spot in La Paz, renowned by its beautiful beaches, wildlife, and rock formations. With opportunities to snorkel, explore trails, stunning white sand beaches, rock formations and a bird sanctuary.

La Paz, the capital of Baja California Sur, is a stunning coastal city renowned for its picturesque landscapes and vibrant culture. Nestled along the shimmering coastline of the Sea of Cortez, it boasts breathtaking turquoise waters, sandy beaches, and dramatic sunsets. The lively malecon (boardwalk) invites leisurely strolls and dining, offering a charming blend of urban life and natural beauty.

Rich in history, La Paz features a variety of museums, galleries, and local markets that showcase its welcoming community. The surrounding area presents unique outdoor adventures, from kayaking and snorkeling in protected marine parks to hiking the diverse desert landscapes. With its laid-back vibe, La Paz is the perfect backdrop for your yoga retreat, inviting you to embrace nature and connect with yourself and others.

Who is leading the retreat? 

Just Add Yoga, of course! We love Yoga. We thrive on community. All of the classes will be lead by Dawn Gent. Dawn’s classes are fun, engaging and accessible to all.

We know what it's like to be the person who can't sit still or feeling like maybe they don’t belong in Yoga spaces.  Luckily, we never gave up our love of the practice, yoga turned our worlds upside down. It changed us and not in a Stranger Things kind of way. We knew we had to create an avenue to share yoga with people like us.

After many brunches attempting to figure out a fun way to make our vision a reality, one day the light bulb went off, take Yoga out of the studio. What better way to get people together than to combine two of our favorite things, Travel and Yoga?

Our classes provide an approachable and casual way to practice yoga. We believe that yoga doesn't have to be so serious. You don't have to be able to do the splits or stand on your head. You don't even have to be able to touch your toes.

We will be bringing this same attitude to the retreat. Join us for yoga in La Paz, whether it's your first class or your 1000th!

How do I get to La Paz, Mexico?

La Paz has its own small airport offering direct flights from Mexico City. However, most travelers opt to fly into Los Cabos International Airport which provides cheaper and more accessible flights. A part of your travel package will include a shuttle transfer from Los Cabos Airport to La Paz, the drive take about 2 hours.

Why should I come to this retreat?

Well, simply because it’s going to be laid back and fun, the perfect break!

You will get to move your body with a caring yoga teacher, swim, snorkel, explore, kayak, shop, whatever your heart desires. Also, you’ll get to share time with some really cool people over a great meal. Pure relaxation with no expectations! The retreat will be full of casual vibes and all things awesome, it’s going to be really fun! We are pretty stoked about it!!

Being my first ever yoga retreat I wasn’t sure what to expect, however, before we even arrived from the airport Dawn was taking care of us. She was there to great us and had made sure to save us some dinner. You can tell that she spent a lot of time on the details and loves what she does. The restaurants she picked out were amazing and the boat ride/whale watching was something I’ll never forget. As for the yoga, Hillary’s calm presence, ability to read the room and adapt to go with the flow (including the occasional four legged furry friend on the beach) was impressive. I can be picky when it comes to yoga instructors and I would recommend Hillary any day of the week. Bottom line…you’ll be in good hands (and company) on whatever retreat these two yogi’s take you on! - Olivia G.

Sunshine. Yoga on the beach. Mango margaritas. Whale watching. And authentic empowerment to choose your own adventure. The 2022 Just Add Yoga Retreat in Sayulita, Mexico offered escape, a renewed fitness focus, and the opportunity to make new friends. Dawn has a gift for creating inclusive community and Hilary's puns make yoga fun. I highly recommend! -Erika B
