WHY THIS RETREAT?
Some places don't simply invite you to visit—they invite you to remember who you are and leave an imprint on your heart.
The Sacred Valley of Peru has always been that place for us.
There is something extraordinary about its mountains. They have been shaped not by dramatic moments, but by countless subtle forces over thousands of years—wind, water, earth, and time. Standing among them reminds us that our own transformation often happens the same way: quietly, patiently, one conscious choice at a time.
As we gather beneath the Capricorn Full Moon in July 2027, the Moon passes close to Earth's shadow while remaining fully illuminated—creating a Penumbral Eclipse. It's a beautiful reminder that freedom isn't found in avoiding the shadow—it's found in remembering that we have a choice in how we meet it.
We don't need to run from our fears, doubts, or old stories. We simply learn not to mistake them for who we are.
Every breath offers a choice.
To tighten or soften.
To resist or receive.
To react from habit or respond with awareness.
The smallest choices, practiced with intention, become the path that reshapes our lives.
And there’s no better place to explore this than Peru.
In the Andean traditions, the majestic condor is revered as the ruler of the Upper World—a sacred messenger that soars between the earthly realm and the heavens. With effortless perspective, it reminds us to rise above fear, see beyond limitation, and remember the greater wisdom that has always been within us.
Throughout our time together, we'll take inspiration from the condor's flight. Rather than turning away from our shadows, we'll learn to illuminate them—to meet every part of ourselves with curiosity, compassion, and presence. Because when we bring awareness to what has been hidden, it no longer holds the same power. It becomes part of our wisdom.
This retreat is about more than exploring one of the most breathtaking places on Earth. It's about remembering that you already carry everything you need within you. The Sacred Valley simply creates the space to hear it again.
It's also where Sandra and I met. What began as a retreat experience grew into a beautiful friendship and a shared vision of creating meaningful journeys that blend yoga, adventure, connection, and personal growth. Together, we've created this experience as an invitation—not to become someone new, but to come home to yourself.
Our hope is that you leave Peru with more than unforgettable memories and incredible adventures. We hope you leave with a deeper trust in yourself, a renewed sense of possibility, and the quiet knowing that transformation doesn't always arrive with fireworks.
Sometimes it begins with one breath.
One choice.
One moment of awareness.
And sometimes, all it takes is the courage to illuminate your shadow... and fly with the condors.
From our hearts to yours,
Maja & Sandra

Is travel insurance recommended?

Do you offer payment plans?

What is the elevation like in the Sacred Valley, and will I need time to acclimate?
The Sacred Valley sits at a higher elevation, which is why we thoughtfully designed our retreat itinerary to allow your body time to acclimate naturally. From nourishing meals and intentional hydration to rest and a slower pace upon arrival, every detail is designed to support your comfort and well-being throughout the experience.
To help you prepare before you arrive, you will also receive an altitude preparation protocol to follow in the weeks leading up to the retreat, giving your body the best opportunity to adjust with ease and fully enjoy your time in Peru.
What will the weather be like in July while we are in the Sacred Valley of Peru?
This is a fantastic time to travel to the Sacred Valley of Peru as its after the wet season and before the dry season, so everything is lush and green. It's nice during the day while we are out and about on our excursions, and cool at night - so make sure to pack with layers in mind - highs in the high 60s during the day and can get into the 30s at night. Remember, it's higher elevation so the weather feels closer to you.
What level of fitness is required for this retreat?
This retreat is designed to be accessible for a variety of fitness levels. While some excursions involve walking, uneven terrain, stairs, and higher elevations, we encourage guests to move at their own pace and honor their bodies throughout the journey.
Is this retreat suitable for solo travelers?
Absolutely. Many guests join us on their own, and we intentionally create a welcoming environment where everyone feels connected from the beginning. Our goal is for you to arrive as individuals and leave feeling like part of a community.
Will there be downtime for quiet reflection?
Absolutely. We intentionally create space throughout the retreat for rest, reflection, and integration. While there are meaningful excursions and experiences woven into the journey, you will also have time to slow down, enjoy the beauty of your surroundings, journal, rest, connect with yourself, or simply be present in the magic of Peru.
Will there be time for shopping?
Absolutely! We’ve built in plenty of opportunities to shop and explore local markets throughout the journey. Some of my personal favorites include the Pisac Markets (a must-see and my personal favorite place to shop), Aguas Calientes, and Cusco, where you’ll find so many beautiful treasures to bring home from Peru.
Can I book only the Continue the Adventure portion of the Retreat?
The extension is reserved for Core Retreat guests and is created as a natural continuation of the retreat experience. After spending time connecting as a group during the retreat, we continue the journey together into deeper exploration of Peru’s history, culture, and sacred sites.
