el salvador yoga retreat

January 30 - February 6, 2027

Join Lindsay and ellie for a transformative ocean Retreat at Balancé in El Salvador

Join us for a retreat designed to help you move, breathe, reset, and play. We’ll gather at Balancé in Playa El Tunco for a week of yoga, connection, sunshine, nourishing food, and plenty of space to choose your own adventure.

This week is about more than getting away. It’s about getting back in touch with yourself.

At Up Yoga, we care about experiences that help you feel strong, clear, connected, and inspired. This retreat is built with that same intention. We’ll move every day, meditate, slow down enough to actually feel what’s here, and make space for joy, laughter, rest, and possibility.

All are invited!

"I could not have anticipated the deep connections I would form with nature, myself, and new friends on this trip. The facilitators blew me away with their dedication to our experience, and I grew personally both emotionally and in my yoga practice. I would take this same trip 1,000x"
