La Selva sits about 30 minutes from Ginebra along a scenic mountain road, roughly 1.5 hours from Alfonso Bonilla Aragón International Airport in Cali. The property is surrounded by forested mountains, open valleys and rural trails, with a temperate mountain climate that stays green year-round. Days are mild enough to train outdoors; mornings and evenings are cooler.

The physical side is led by Pacho Diröa and adapts to your starting point. Sessions draw on calisthenics, functional training, strength and mobility work, plus walking and running. The programme also includes martial arts sessions. A guest review from a longer programme with the same team describes arriving barely able to run half a mile and leaving able to run six, with swimming progressing from tears to ten laps — the coaching pushes but respects boundaries.

The detox side runs through daily habits rather than a single treatment. Kambô sessions are offered as needed, plant steam baths with medicinal herbs are part of the rhythm, and personal wellness treatments include Verpubirí, compression boots and Praxis Vertebralis. Nutrition is anti-inflammatory and low-carbohydrate, adjusted to your condition and goals, with three meals and snacks prepared daily. Note that the kitchen's approach is not suitable for a vegan diet.

Support is personal and ongoing. Carolina Forero, a clinical psychologist specialising in addictive behaviours, works with applied psychology alongside yoga, breathing, meditation and conscious movement, and the team offers guidance throughout your stay. Human Design and reflection sessions are included when appropriate, and there is space for remote work — the cabin has a desk and workspace.

What separates this from a conventional retreat is the scale. With a maximum of three guests, La Selva runs as a family home and coliving space rather than a retreat centre. You share meals and outdoor spaces but keep your own cabin, your own bathroom and the freedom to follow your own rhythm. The stated aim is not to promise a result in 15 days but to set up habits around eating, moving and resting that you can carry home.
