What styles of yoga will be taught?
With roots in Ashtanga Yoga and Baptiste Yoga, Sasha's classes are energetic yet grounding. Her hope in life is to improve the lives of those open and willing to roll out the mat and discover the magic of the practice and what’s within them. Yoga can be utilized as a tool to not only calm the body and mind, but also to alleviate symptoms of illness, in the physical and emotional bodies.
Ashtanga emphasizes the connection between breath and movement, and can be a great way to build strength, flexibility, and mental focus.
Baptiste Yoga is linked together by connective momentum and consists of five classical pillars: Drishti (gaze), Ujjayi (breath), Bandhas (foundation), Tapas (heat) and Vinyasa (flow).
Alexandra’s classes draw from her experience teaching Vinyasa Yoga and Buti Yoga. Her classes are powerful, dynamic, and grounded in intention. They blend strong movement with breathwork to create an energizing full-body experience.
Buti Yoga adds a soulful, high energy component, weaving in strength conditioning, plyometric bursts, and dynamic sequences to encourage release, empowerment, and reconnection with self.

What will be required of me when I attend?
Nothing is mandatory. All offerings — yoga, workshops, excursion, and wellness activities are completely optional. This retreat is yours to shape. Whether you’re here to rest, reset, explore, or connect, we encourage you to follow what feels best for you.
That said, we’ve crafted each experience with intention, and many participants find that joining in ; whether it’s an early morning yoga class, a facial self love workshop, a group hike, or snorkeling in the ocean, can be both nourishing and transformative.
We invite you to be open, curious, and gently stretch beyond your comfort zone — but only ever at your own pace.
-
What experience level should I have to attend?
All experience levels are welcome!
While our retreat is designed to support those looking to deepen their practice, all you truly need is an open heart and a willingness to explore. Modifications and support will be offered throughout—you’ll be encouraged to listen to your body and move in a way that feels authentic to you.

What do I need to bring with me for yoga classes and workshops?
Everything you need will be provided for you - yoga mats, meditation cushions, blankets, journals, pens and facial supplies. You're also welcome to bring anything extra that you feel is important to your practices.

What documents do I need to enter Mexico?
Just a valid passport!
If you have a US, Canadian, Australian, New Zealand or European passport you will be granted a tourist visa once you arrive in Mexico and pass through customs.
If your passport is from another country please check for any other visa requirements. Most tourist visas are issued for 30 or 90 days, however you can ask the immigration officer to make it for up to 180 days if you plan to stay longer in Mexico.
There is no need for special immunizations.
Keep your tourist visa in a safe place, as you will need it upon exiting Mexico. If you lose your tourist visa you need to be at the airport 4 hours before your flight on your departure day and pay $30 USD.

What will the weather be like? How should I dress appropriately?
Chacala lies south of the Tropic of Cancer, thus it is located in the true tropics, and its climate is tropical – hot and humid. Average temperatures for February are highs of 81°F and lows of 66°F.
Yoga clothing is recommended for yoga practice. Outside of yoga practice, we recommend wearing loose fitting, flowing, and comfortable clothing that you can layer, relax in, and also move about freely while walking or traveling during excursions.
Bring appropriate footwear for all types of terrain, from airport travel to hikes, and beach walking to lounging around the resort- eg. one pair of tennis shoes, and one pair of sandals.
