Of The Earth

Fuerteventura, Canary Islands
February 28 - March 6 2027

Escape the cold winter for a week on a sunny volcanic island off the coast of Morocco. Of the Earth is a retreat that invites you to connect deeply with the natural world around you. During the week we'll spend our time moving intentionally on the mat, sharing locally sourced meals with new friends, long days enjoying the warmth of the sun, with plenty of time to take in the views.

Location

In Lajares, Casa Erbane is hidden in a nature reserve. Behind it’s modern and minimalist style, it embodies the spirit of the region. Between colorful and sophisticated decor, contrasted with raw and warm materials, nature is omnipresent in the house.

Activities

We believe that meaningful growth often happens when we step beyond the familiar and immerse ourselves in the beauty of the unknown world around us. That’s why thoughtfully curated adventures are a core part of our retreat experiences. Each excursion is an invitation to connect more deeply; with nature, a new culture and the group of humans around you. While we encourage you to join every outing, we also honor your intuition. If a particular activity doesn’t resonate, you’re welcome to spend your time exactly as you wish.

Food from the Land

Olita is a chef originally from Poland, but living in Spain for the past 8 years. She recently completed the Plant-Based Nutrition Certificate at eCornell and the T. Colin Campbell Center for Nutrition Studies and a certification as an Intuitive Eating lay facilitator. She fully embraces the potential of a well-balanced plant-based diet. Eating plant based is a restorative practice, especially for those of us who aren't used to eating this way. Drawing inspiration from global cuisines, I design plant-based meals that showcase the versatility of vegetables, legumes, whole grains, nuts, and seeds and provide a balance of essential nutrients.

About Kaylie

I've been teaching yoga and movement for the past 12 years, and as time passes, my passion for the craft continues to grow. After years of teaching in studio, I created The Glow Method app so that I could cultivate a space to share that love for moving my body with the world. Since 2023 I've had the honor of leading retreats internationally and it has been the greatest joy of my career. I love being able to put faces to the names that I see in comments and form everlasting friendships with each guest. Retreats hold a special kind of magic that I have yet to successfully put into words, and I hope to experience it with you one day!

Application Process

If you’re feeling the call to join us, trust your intuition that you are meant to be here! To create an intimate atmosphere, capacity is limited.

We ask guests to fill out an application so that we can be sure it’s the right fit for everyone. Spots are first-come, first-served.

All prices are per person, so if you’re attending with a friend or family member, please apply separately. If you would like to share a room with someone you know, please provide their name when you apply.

If you choose to join solo and want to share a room, you’ll be matched with another retreat guest(s).

If the retreat is sold out, you can still apply and your name will be added to the waitlist in the event that someone cancels their spot.

We offer scholarship spots on at least one retreat a year.
