“As the sun illuminates the whole world, so does the Self illuminate the entire body.” — Bhagavad Gita

There’s something special about sunrise on the beach—the quiet, the light, the sound of the waves, and the chance to simply be present.

I love capturing morning yoga flows, as the first light of day paints everything in gold. A beautiful blend of strength, grace, and stillness, all set against the backdrop of the sunlit ocean.

Yandara 3.0 !!! ✨
•
This April I spent an entire lunar cycle at @yandarayoga in Baja, Mexico. I first found my way to this slice of paradise nearly two decades ago for a 200 hour training and also visited 10 years ago when I completed my first 300 hour teacher training + Ayurveda immersion. This place and the people who hold it have helped shaped my path in incredible ways and for this I am forever grateful. Yoga Trade would most likely not exist without Yandara. 🕉️

As excited as I was to return for a third visit, I was also a bit hesitant as I did not want to jade my wonderful memories from here. Also, I had already completed this training, was it silly to do it again? I was also aware that the space had evolved into hosting retreat groups, and now has a pool and more upscale accommodations + amenities and wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the new changes as I generally like to keep it roots.

I am SOOOOOO happy I got below the neck and followed my heart and experienced this magical month. Yandara is the real deal. I have been to many yoga centers around the world and I believe this is one of the most underrated, amazing, and affordable places out there. We had a wonderful and harmonious group of 12 students, a holy trinity of 3 lead teachers, and 1 playful dog. We were also graced by other great teachers, staff, volunteers, guests from other programs, and other furry friends on site. Blessed to spend time where this desert oasis meets the sea. 🌊🌵
•
After this month I am now feeling; re-inspired in yoga and life as a student and a teacher, a stronger faith in humanity, a deeper love for nature, grateful to have a new cohort of life long yoga teacher family, and actually really appreciative for all the new comfort upgrades at Yandara like the cozy glamping tent, new studio spaces, and refreshing pool;)

If you’re considering visiting Yandara....DO IT. They offer heaps of heart led programming. Even the greatest teachers can evolve. Feel the love. Learn. Practice. Sing. Dance. Connect. Eat well. Live outside. Be together. Just be. Enjoy the sunshine! 🌞

And then there are moments in time, soul deep connections, that are forever etched in your heart

This is powerful!! When people are drawn together by a shared intention. We all dove in together. Said yes to life. Said yes to expansion. The intention is to dive deeper into our yogic path.

Twenty-eight days. Twelve yoga teachers. A secluded beach in the dessert of Mexico. Strangers turned family. Studying all things yoga, diving deep into our own practice, our own personal journey, developing our visions for life, staying curious, chanting together, and supporting each other along the way. My heart is so full 🤍

Things shift when you surround yourself with the dreamers, the soul seekers, the ones who inspire you to reach further, to dream wider. Choose wisely when you decide who you will surround yourself with.

The last 28 days at @yandarayoga has been life-changing, and it’s all because of the humans who chose to be here, at the same point in time as I did. There is a reason we all met, and I can’t wait to see where each and every one of our paths unfolds from this moment on. Now ripples sent back out into this wild world.

Forever connected by this moment in time we shared together - my heart is so full of love for these humans ✨

300 hours later… and a lifetime opened.

Yandara didn’t just teach me yoga — it transformed the way I breathe, feel, listen, and live. Through every sunrise practice, every challenge, every moment of surrender, I met parts of myself I didn’t know were waiting.

This journey asked for presence, patience, and truth… and gave me back connection, strength, and love.

Grateful for the teachers @yandarayoga , the souls I shared this space with , and the magic that held us all.

I leave not as someone who finished something, but as someone who just began.

From the mat… to life. 🤍

𖦹 i just completed my 300 hour teacher training at @yandarayoga and im leaving with a heart fuller than i really know how to put into words right now. so much gratitude for my teachers, for the souls i shared this journey with, for the love, the authenticity, the depth of the conversations, and the nature of this experience that shaped me in ways i’m still taking in.

there’s so much more i can’t wait to share, but for now… here are a few moments that express the joy we shared.
