4-Day Private Aerial Yoga Escape in the Guatemalan Highlands

The retreat starts on arrival day in the afternoon with a welcome and orientation, followed by your first yoga session at 5 pm. Each day after that begins with an earlyish yoga class, then a homemade vegetarian breakfast with tea or coffee. Late morning is the main event: an aerial yoga class, where you'll learn inversions in silk hammocks — good for decompressing the spine and working on balance and core connection. In the afternoon you're free: book a treatment at the local SPA, sunbathe on the terrace, find a nearby café, or take an Uber into Antigua to wander the cobblestone streets and see the Spanish Baroque architecture. Then at 4 pm there's a second aerial yoga class. Evenings are early — dinner together, then time to read, journal, or meditate before bed. The retreat finishes on your last day after another yoga class and breakfast.

The setting is a big part of the experience. You're on a mountain slope at 2,200 meters above sea level, looking out at volcanos. It's quiet and rural, surrounded by private houses and farms, and on clear days you can see at least two volcanos from the terrace. The air is crisp in the mornings and evenings — it gets chilly after 5 pm and warms up during the day. You might spot squirrels, hummingbirds, or butterflies depending on the season. Antigua is just a short drive away if you want culture, markets, and a livelier scene.

Dani has been teaching since 2010 and is a 500-hour certified yoga teacher (ERYT500), trained in India, the UK, and Goa, with a Pilates certificate from Spain. She's the instructor and host, and she also does aerial arts, HIIT, and personal training. Jorge, her partner, is Guatemalan, with a background in TV and media. He handles logistics, coordinates local excursions, and can guide you around Guatemala if you want to explore further. Together they make the retreat feel personal and genuinely welcoming — something the guest reviews mention again and again.
