“This trip really exceeded all expectations. The place is as beautiful as the pictures would suggest! Nearby activities (zipline, beach, surfing, etc.) fun and easy to get to.

Anamaya provides the perfect escape to reconnect with yourself while stepping away from life’s relentless pace and urban chaos. Throughout the week, Natalia will guide you through carefully curated workshops designed for souls ready to break free from limiting routines and rediscover what truly matters.

Partner Yoga Workshop:  

There’s something magical about sharing your practice with another person. In this playful workshop, you’ll flow through sequences designed for two, discovering new depths in familiar poses while building trust and connection. Expect laughter, supported stretches, creative balances, and those beautiful moments when two people move as one. As they say, “Unity is strength” – and you’ll feel that power firsthand.

This 1.5 hour workshop is $30 + tax per person (or $90 for all three workshops).

 

Bio-Creation Workshop:

Bio-creation is the art of connecting with your highest self and letting your inner potential shine. Grounded in earth energy yet reaching toward infinite possibility, we’ll dive deep into your soul’s true desires and create a roadmap for the life you’ve been dreaming of. Through intentional practices, you’ll learn to shift your emotional frequency toward joy, abundance, and wellness while releasing old patterns that no longer serve you. Discover the essence of who you truly are and remember this truth: a peaceful mind is a powerful mind.

This 1.5 hour workshop is $35 + tax per person (or $90 for all three workshops).

 

Awakening the Senses Workshop:

Take an extraordinary journey inward as we awaken your inner light through the gateway of the senses. Through mindful experiences with food, music, movement, essential oils, and sacred silence, you’ll rediscover the profound connection between your senses and your soul. This immersive meditation becomes a conscious celebration of life itself, bringing you fully into the magic of the present moment and the vibrant being you truly are.

This 1.5 hour workshop is $35 + tax per person (or $90 for all three workshops).

 

Private Sessions with Natalia:

Sound Healing:

Let the ancient vibrations of Tibetan singing bowls, chimes, and healing voice wash over you in this deeply restorative experience. As sacred sounds flow through your body, they naturally harmonize your energy, quiet mental chatter, and melt away stored tension. This gentle yet powerful practice guides you into profound relaxation, creating space for emotional release and a return to your natural state of inner peace. Price is $90 + tax per person.

Biocreation Private Session:

Reconnect with your creative life force in this transformative one-on-one experience. Through powerful intention-setting and guided visualization, you’ll learn to manifest from a place of deep presence and inner alignment. This personalized session awakens your dormant potential and opens the channels for authentic creative flow to move through you once again. Price is $80 + tax per person.

Woga® (Water + Yoga):

Experience the healing embrace of water as you flow through gentle yoga sequences in our pool. The water’s natural buoyancy supports your body, allowing for deeper stretches, effortless movement, and complete relaxation without strain on your joints. This meditative practice enhances flexibility, soothes your nervous system, and invites a profound sense of fluidity that mirrors the graceful flow of life itself. Price is $75 + tax per person.
