We will also be offering advanced classes for those who wish to attend during the week. Whether you are new to Bikram Yoga or have been practicing for years you will after this week surely come back home with a much more improved practice.. and a sun tan as well.

One of our classes – the yoga room equipped with heaters, mirrors and fans – get hot and sweaty 

In addition we will also be offering daily Inferno Hot Pilates classes for the week. At our last Retreat in Panama we were fortunate enough to have Brooke here as a teacher and all guests loved the Inferno classes so much that we decided to include them at our Mexico Retreat as well. If you have never tried it before then its now time. A full body workout which is guaranteed to tone your arms, bud, thighs, core and legs. Add some funky music and heat and the high energy of our teacher Brooke and the class is complete; give it a try, you will for sure like it

Location: 

Puerto Morelos is a laid back fishing village just 20 minutes south of Cancun. What visitors love about ‘Puerto’ are lower prices and a slower pace of life than its larger, busier neighbours like 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. And there are some great restaurants and cocktail bars too which we will visit. The weather is hot and humid with a bit of wind in May with little chance of rain so THE best time to come visit Mexico. 

The Villa:

Casa Om is situated right across of one of the most beautiful beaches at the Riviera Maya, with crystal clear waters. Just how you would imagine the Caribbean at its best. We have been running 7 retreats here and are every time excited to be coming back to this premier Hot Yoga Retreat Centre. Casa Om boasts a private swimming pool, rooftop deck with stunning ocean views (where we will be having our meals), a fully equipped and heated yoga room, ample space for relaxation and some turtles as well. 

Most classes will be held in the heated Yoga studio right in the villa so no need to walk anywhere with the exception of a couple outside classes on the pier overlooking the ocean. An experience not to be missed. The Inferno Hot Pilates classes will be all held at the Yoga studio.

All rooms in the villa are beautifully decorated in Balinese style and feature daily fresh towels, aircon, mini fridge, own en-suite bathroom, ceiling fans, mosquito nets over each bed and organic toiletries. Further –  yoga clothes will be washed once a day which is also included. There is also unlimited fresh drinking water available throughout the villa. The villa is a short 10 – 15 minutes walk from the centre of Puerto Morelos with its shops, supermarkets, bank, restaurants and bars.
