About the Retreat

Join Crystal and Terri for an unforgettable 6 days/ 5 nights Yoga holiday at the stunning Casa Om in Puerto Morelos at the close of 2021 to help you invigorate, relax, and envision for the new year December 18-December 23, 2021! Enjoy 2 daily yoga classes, morning beachside meditation, and amazing gourmet meals. Join Crystal and Terri for an uplifting Vision and Goals workshop to set intentions for the new Year. Spend your afternoons relaxing on the beach, snorkeling at one of the best reefs in the world, or at the Casa Om pool, and celebrate the season in style and in community!

Puerto Morelos is a laid back fishing village just 20 minutes south of busy Cancun. What visitors love about ‘Puerto’ are lower prices and a slower pace of life than neighboring cities, such as Cancun or Playa del Carmen. It’s the perfect spot for relaxation – a place to get away from it all and experience the simple Caribbean life, while still being centrally located to the surrounding attractions of the Riviera Maya. There are some fantastic restaurants, friendly locals, and plenty of R&R.

This will be Crystal’s sixth time in Puerto, and she has co-led four successful retreats at Casa Om in the past and can’t wait to return, most recently leading with Terri. This will be Terri’s second time to Casa Om. Crystal and Terri have been collaborating since 2016 and can’t wait to co-host this amazing retreat!!!!

The Week:

We have planned a fantastic week with plenty of powerful Yoga Yang classes, rejuvenating Yoga Yin Classes, a vision and goals workshop, and more. The Retreat is also open to partners who don’t practice Yoga yet would like to enjoy the holiday and celebrate the season together, check out our double occupancy rates if you’d like to bring a friend!

The Villa:

Casa Om is situated right across of one of the most beautiful beaches at the Riviera Maya, with crystal clear waters. Exactly how you would imagine the Caribbean! Casa Om boasts a private swimming pool, rooftop deck with stunning ocean views (where we will be having our gourmet meals), a fully equipped yoga room with mats and props, ample space for relaxation and meditating.

Most classes will be held in the Yoga studio right in the villa with the exception of a couple outside classes on the pier overlooking the ocean, which is an experience not to be missed. Morning meditation will be beachside. ALL offerings are optional.

Join Heather and Crystal on Mondays from 645pm-8pm for a six week Hot Yoga Series! Hot Yoga 26 consist of 26 groups of postures plus two breathing exercises (known as Asanas). By doing these yoga poses, one can exercise and invigorate all of the body by stimulating its glands, nerves, and organs and by improving circulation of oxygen throughout the body. Many of the poses are not typically practiced in a vinyasa or power flow class, so expect to be challenged in a new way! The room will be heated to approx 95 degrees, so bring a towel and water! Every week the sequence is the same, so you will be able to really learn it and watch your progress. This also means you can attend some sessions if that works better for your calendar!

This series is a "workshop" series and does not apply to monthly memberships or other special offers.
