The Ignite Your Spark Maui Retreat was a yoga-lovers dream.
Hosts Tanya and Cal shared the spirit of Aloha on the Maui Isle with eighteen energetic yogis at Lumeria, an oasis of tranquility located on six magnificently landscaped ocean view acres just outside of the seaside village of Paia on Maui’s North Shore.
Twice daily yoga practices were held in multiple locations designed to inspire retreat goers while taking in the sights and sounds of upcountry Maui. Vigorous morning practices were enjoyed under the sun and palm trees on the outdoor yoga platform. Relaxing evening Yin and Nidra practices took place inside the warm and comforting yoga shala surrounded by the sounds of the evening jungle coming to life. Beach yoga was a bonus on the trip and while these practices were casual, provided everyone memorable opportunities to flow with the onshore breeze, hang loose with partner acro-yoga fun and explore their asanas in the surf, salt and sand.
Highlights from the retreat included a sea kayak and snorkeling excursion off Maui’s West end made splashy by the appearance of breaching whales spouting and rolling in the mid-island channel. The group enjoyed a sunset luau at the Feast at Lele in Lahaina Town where they were whisked away on a musical and culinary journey of Polynesia. With plenty of opportunity to indulge at the on-site Crystal Spa, lounge at the beach or the salt water pool, savor farm-to-table fare just steps from their comfortable rooms, shop in Paia Town or journey off on their own to hike or venture to the top of Haleakala, each day ended with laughter shared around the communal fire. With stories echoing off the walls of the resort and rising to the inky, star-studded sky, a genuine display of the deep friendships forming as attendees from all walks of life came together to ignite the spark in their yoga practice, while coming away with rich new friendships and a deep collective bond on a once in a lifetime experience.
We look forward to returning once again to the shores of Maui to re-ignite our spark in yoga, friendship, freedom and play. Will you be one of the lucky retreat attendees?
We sincerely hope so.
