The Inner Radiance Retreat invites you to step onto a path of adventure and deep exploration to reignite your spark within.

Inner Radiance is your pathway to adventure, growth, and a profound connection with yourself, the earth and humans around you.
the retreat
March 9th - 16th, 2025
This 7 night, 8 day experience will be a rejuvenating experience for your body, mind and soul. Whether we’re on an adventure in nature or moving in new ways on the mat — we’ll be on an exciting journey of discovery.
We begin each day in tune with the rhythms of nature. A serene wake up to the sound of birds and waves moves into a guided meditation and energizing practice on the mat. After breakfast, our days will be spent hiking up volcanoes, lounging by the Pacific ocean or the pool, exploring the nearby cities or riding horseback with on the beach. Our second movement practice or workshop will take place in the late afternoon, before we sit down to enjoy a delicious dinner as the sun sets. Every day’s schedule is well balanced, so there will be ample time for rest and relaxation.
this is your sign to…
dive deep into yourself.
