Jump
into a week of wellness with Melina and friends. In between soaking
up the sun, surfing and eating delicious local cuisine. We will
be diving into the heart of yoga practice and philosophy with the
Yoga Sutras as our launching pad. The Yoga Sutras are an inspirational
text, which describe a systematic approach to deeper levels of self-awareness.
Several themes from the Sutras will be used throughout the week
to help us integrate the philosophy of yoga into our lives.
Daily yoga practices will include unique sequences to complement
the time of day, surfing and group level. Don’t miss this
wonderful opportunity for personal growth and exploration! View

About Kate Slater (surf instructor). . . . My
family has lived and worked down here in Sayulita for almost 7 years
now and I have been vacationing and living down here on and off
since I was a little girl. I learned to surf when I was about nine
living in Encinitas, CA and since then I have mostly dedicated my
life to travel and surf. I have lived and studied in Costa Rica,
Brasil, Chile, Mexico and Argentina. I have a degree in International
business and Spanish and hope to continue working in Latin America.
I love to surf and love to share the experience with others.
About Murilo Evangelista dos Santos (surf instructor). .
. . Murilo
grew up skateboarding in the streets of Sao Paulo, Brasil. For the
last 7 years he has lived on and off on the beautiful, jungle coastline
between Rio and Sao Paulo. Surfing has changed his life, giving
him opportunities that he had never even dreamed of. He has taught
the last few years at a surf school for young developing surfers
and tourists in Ubatuba, Brasil. Like Kate he loves to share the
surfing stoke with others.
About Sayulita
Via Yoga is located in Sayulita, Mexico, one of the best-kept secret
beach hamlets along Mexico's Pacific Coast. A quaint fishing village
dotted with charming restaurants, shops and taquerias, Sayulita
also features some of Mexico's best surfing with year round water
temperature of 80°. Both beginners and advanced surfers will
be thrilled by its excellent surf break.
An easy 45 minutes from Puerto Vallarta, Sayulita is a place unto
itself, with vast unspoiled beaches, lush verdant jungle, and friendly
locals ready to share a real Mexican experience. You will find incredible
shopping and restaurants throughout the town. Also, the constant
activity of fishing boats and bird life make it a pleasant place
to be. There are other nearby beaches more absent of tourists and
worth discovering as well.
