The Mists of Atitlan
Escape with Sarita Louise Rhodes, to Lake Atitlan, a magical crater lake located in the heart of Guatemala.
Mar 19 - 26, 2022
This retreat will provide you with the perfect opportunity to explore a remote, sacred part of the world that will open your heart and your perspective to what could be.
Our trip begins with an overnight stay in the beautiful city of Antigua, where the group will gather. You'll have time to explore the unique architecture and funky boutiques of Antigua prior to meeting up for a welcome dinner that evening.
On day 2, we will make our way to Isla Verde, a lakefront hotel with a tranquil bohemian vibe, and stunning views of Lake Atitlan. Once there, you will have ample opportunity to experience the Mayan culture of Lake Atitlan, connect with nature, and create your own adventure.
Our days will include daily yoga classes and workshops with Sarita, locally sourced meals, two included excursions, and plenty of time for relaxation and reflection amongst the grounds of Isla Verde and Lake Atitlan.
Our retreat center features a lakefront sauna, hot tub, and restaurant / lounge area,
all available for you to enjoy!
Come experience Guatemala with Sarita for a soulful, restorative journey that you won't forget.
Outdoor lovers will have ample opportunity to partake in many activities throughout our week including: kayaking, volcano hiking, stand up paddle boarding, horseback riding and zip lining, to name a few. There are also local cooking and weaving classes that can be arranged upon arrival. Boat rides are readily available to visit neighboring Mayan villages where you can enjoy local foods, markets, and some of the best textile and arts shopping in Central America.

Dancing with Dedication & Ease
3-day Workshop with Sarita Louise Rhodes
December, 28 | Wed 30, 2020 as part of WINTER TANZ 2020/21 Tanzfabrik Berlin
As an integrative approach to movement SRT is recognized as a significant way to experience and empower the creative self in the act of dancing, tapping into one’s own imagination, intuition and wisdom. Poetic imagery and hands-on studies facilitate deep and more nuanced kinaesthetic experience of movement.
Noticing as a first step for change and allowing movement to happen are key to this practice that provides specific tools to access effortlessness and multi-directional alignment, depth, presence and freedom in movement and stillness. During these 3 days we will engage with the basic principles of Releasing as a way to access the intuitive and poetic body in motion.
In the on-going interplay between inner and outer awareness we will find compelling simplicity and significance in our dancing.
