sTEP OFF THE MAT AND INTO THE WORLD

Some of the most important yoga you'll ever practice happens far from home — in the quiet of a desert canyon, beside a volcanic lake, or soaking in mineral-hot spring water at sunrise. At Meta Yoga Studios, our retreats are designed to take you deeper: designed to take you deeper: into your practice, into community, into yourself. Each year, our expert teachers lead small-group retreats to destinations chosen with intention. These aren't just getaways. They're experiences that change how you move through your life when you return home.

Lake Atitlan, Guatemala
November 2–8, 2026

Nestled on two acres of breathtaking lakefront on Lake Atitlan, Guatemala, this retreat is a full immersion into nature, community, and soul. Each day is anchored by the five elements — a framework for deepening your connection to the natural world and to yourself — through dedicated yoga practices and explorations around the lake.
You'll stay in thoughtfully adorned casitas furnished with local handcrafted art with many different room options available. Every meal is shared together at Tierra Atitlan, featuring seasonally inspired Guatemalan cuisine made from locally sourced ingredients. Arrival day dinner through departure breakfast is included.
Getting there is easy: one group shuttle picks up November 2 from Guatemala City and drops off November 8. For those who prefer it, a 22-minute flight from Guatemala City to Lake Atitlan is available for an additional fee.
Kimberly and Leslie will be your guides for this one — and if you've been on a retreat with them before, you already know what that means.
**Space is limited.** Contact info@metayogastudios.com to learn more and reserve your place.

Why Retreat With Meta?

Our retreats are small by design. We keep groups intimate so that every person feels held, seen, and genuinely connected — not just a name on a roster. Whether it's your first retreat or your fifth, you'll leave with something you didn't have when you arrived. Meta Yoga has been leading retreats for years, and the experience we've built is hard to describe until you've lived it. Our past retreat participants put it better than we can — read their words below.

Left Me Wanting More

This retreat was the perfect amount of activity (movement), socializing (connection), and recharging (reflecting and relaxing) in a safe and welcoming group. It left me wanting more!

— Imane

Keep Looking Foward to Each Retreat

“Kimberly and Leslie put together retreats that not only focus on each individual's wellness needs but also add elements of the culture surrounding the location of the retreat making the experience memorable. Opportunities to interact with other retreat participants as well as the surrounding environment is what keeps me looking forward to each retreat with excitement and anticipation.”

— Rose

Central Concepts Discussed Have Stuck with Me

“Many thanks to Kimberly and Leslie for a fantastic retreat! I really appreciated the way they were flexible when the weather didn’t quite cooperate. I actually think the rain enhanced the forest bathing experience, and the central concepts we discussed have stuck with me. This fall has felt like a necessary time for self-reflection for me, and the retreat really kickstarted that. ”

— Jeaneen

Full of Intention, Connection, and Deep Relaxation

“Leslie and Kimberly curated a weekend full of intention, connection, and deep relaxation. Sacred hot spring soaks, delicious meals, morning and evening yoga, gem-filled hikes, energy work, and sound healing—everything you need for a soul-nourishing weekend. 💖”

— Bre

Created Space for Me to Reconnect

“I signed up for this yoga retreat when I was in the depths of postpartum and feeling desperate to feel connected to old versions of me that I felt like I lost upon becoming a mother. The retreat created space for me to recapture and reconnect with those younger / playful / sensual versions of me. I left feeling like my whole self again.”

— Kim

Space to Connect with Yourself

“Kimberly and Leslie know how to curate a retreat that not only gives you space to connect with yourself, but also build connections with others. These two are incredibly caring, intentional, and supportive. They balance and compliment each other well. I can’t wait to retreat with them again!”

— Carrie
