Join us from August 26th to September 1st, 2022 for an Ayurvedic Retreat that will allow you to re-connect with mind, body, and spirit using all 8 limbs of yoga. This is a yin and yang balanced retreat; there will be a combination of nourishing yin activities – Yin yoga, meditation practices, reiki, nourishing meals, surfing, mud baths, and optional massage and other spa services. There will also be yang activities – hiking to beautiful caves and waterfalls, surfing, cooking classes, and even a Zumba class! You can choose to participate in all of the things or none of them -your level of participation is totally up to you! There will be plenty of downtime to explore and transportation available to other parts of the island during your downtime.
Ki-Ra is right on the edge of the Caribbean Sea;25 acres of semi-tropical woodlands, brimming with unadulterated nature and surrounded by 6,000 acres of the same. You will find many of the island’s birds and butterflies here, along with countless plants, many with healing properties.
Blessed with a constant breeze, the peace, and energy of the place provide the ideal platform for the LiveYinsa experience.
We will have direct, private access to the sea, a beautiful seawater pool and
workshops and classes in a covered “Palapa” that is 1,000 ft2.
There is a Holistic Spa on the premises that offers Naturopathic & Ayurvedic treatments and the kitchen serves delicious vegetarian and Ayurvedicinspired dishes. Each guestroom will be stocked with Yinsa Ayurvedic products, custom-created for each participant, according to their dosha.
Optional add-ons from retreat space including massage, reflexology, Ayurvedic consultations, plant medicine consultation -these can be done any day, or in lieu of any activities planned.
Optional: Photo shoot with a local photographer with global experience in television and film (not a “resort photographer”)
Each of the excursions off the premises will include transportation to and from the location, and all things necessary to engage, including towels. All you need is yourself!

Daniele started taking Bikram yoga classes 10 years ago when she was looking for something to help balance her life as a single parent and a teacher for NYC public schools. She quickly fell in love with that practice, and eventually moved on to Vinyasa and Hatha practices, eventually deciding she wanted to be a yoga teacher. In 2014, she received her 200-hour certification from Pure Yoga, ultimately committing to share the yoga lifestyle with the world. In 2017, she began to focus her work on yoga therapy through two different lenses – Ayurveda and the Chakra system. Then entered her love of potion-making, and in 2018 she began to develop a number of Ayurvedic skincare products for both herself and her clients. To this day, her mission has always remained the same: to help people learn to embrace their individuality and find balance from within.
