Soul Water Surf Retreat

January 6 - 13, 2023
The Emerald Coast, Nicaragua
Exercises are like prose, whereas yoga is the poetry of movements. Once you understand the grammar of yoga; you can write your poetry of movements.
- Amir Ray

Nicaragua is still an undiscovered paradise. A haven of untouched waves, tropical fruits, warm balmy weather, joyful beings and a sense of earthy roots surround you.
Through the experience of daily Yoga classes, world class surf, one of a kind breath-work sessions, wellness experiences, spa and much more, attendees can expect an immersive experience of relaxation and disconnect from their day to day environment.
The Flavor
Who is Flo
I have always been fascinated by the water element. I feel like nothing is softer and more flexible than water, and yet, nothing can stand against it. I see a lot of similarities between the human spirit and water and I feel like in order to calibrate ourselves, we can learn a lot from water. Learn how to flow, how to be soft, how to to be malleable, yet focused and strong.
My yoga flows for this retreat will be inspired by the water element. We will learn how to become soft and subtle like water, creating a rhythm between the inhale and the exhale, and also how to focus our strength and be bold and powerful like a tidal wave. In my flows, I put a lot of emphasis on the connection between the movement and the breath, teaching the student to move consciously and to become aware of the breath al all times.
I see yoga as a moving meditation, a dance between control and surrender. Learning how to be focused and still, knowing when to move and when to fully surrender and relax.
For me, the practice is an inner journey of transformation, leading you closer to the essence of who you are. In order to understand your being, you must explore all your dimensions- mind, body and soul and yoga is the perfect tool for this inner exploration.
Having a background in classical dance and Fine Arts, I found the perfect means of expression through Vinyasa yoga. My classes are dynamic and flowing , with a lot of emphasis on the breath.
