About this retreat

Join a 24-day, 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training on the Caribbean coast of Palomino, Colombia, running from November 17 to December 10, 2026. The venue lies where the Sierra Nevada meets the sea: jungle on one side, a private stretch of beach and a river on the other, with Palomino town close by. The curriculum weaves Hatha-Kundalini, Vinyasa, Acro Yoga and Himalayan Kriya Yoga with anatomy, philosophy, Bhakti, pranayama and mantra, alongside ancestral ceremonies such as Rapé, Cacao and Blue Lotus. The group is capped at sixteen students, which leaves room for one-on-one mentorship, and the kitchen serves vegan and gluten-free meals three times a day. A printed manual, yoga props, an airport pick-up, a river tubing day trip and workshops such as Ayurveda, Yin and sound healing are part of the programme. Four room types are offered, from a shared quadruple mangrove bungalow at EUR 2,399 to a private deluxe mangrove bungalow at EUR 3,699, and a EUR 400 deposit secures a place. Graduates can register with Yoga Alliance as RYT-200 teachers and stay connected through the school's alumni community.

Why this retreat

Yoga in all its dimensions: We believe yoga is more than physical practice. Our training integrates Hatha-Kundalini, Vinyasa, Acro Yoga, and Himalayan Kriya Yoga with pranayama, mantra, ritual, and Bhakti, offering a path that is both technically grounded and spiritually alive. This is a space where practice becomes prayer, and every moment becomes part of the journey. Inner Purpose & Nervous System Healing: This training offers more than a certification. It is a space to slow down, regulate the nervous system, release stress, and reconnect with what truly matters. Through breath, movement, ritual, self-inquiry, and community, you are invited to find deeper meaning, emotional clarity, and a healthier relationship with your body, mind, and heart. It is a sacred pause from daily life, a journey into spiritual depth, inner healing, and renewed purpose. Intimate Group Size: We cap every training at sixteen people, and most groups end up closer to twelve. That number is not a marketing decision. It is the largest group where a teacher can still notice that you have been quiet for two days, or that something shifted in your practice this morning, or that you need a different cue than the person next to you. In a room of forty, none of that gets seen. It also means one-on-one mentorship that is actually one-on-one, dedicated sessions where you can bring whatever is surfacing, ask the questions you did not want to ask in front of the group, and think out loud with someone who has been paying attention to you specifically. Ancestral Ceremonies: Engage in profound rituals like Rapé, Blue Lotus, and Cacao ceremonies. Rapé, a sacred tobacco-based practice, helps ground your energy and clear mental blocks. Blue Lotus supports deep relaxation, subtle inner vision, and meditative awareness. The Cacao ceremony fosters heart-opening connection and self-awareness. Community: Every group has been an unlikely mix: people in their twenties beside people in their sixties, wildly different lives and languages, arriving as strangers and leaving as friends. Then something else begins. Graduating does not end your relationship with Ancestral. It changes it. You join an ongoing network of practitioners and teachers across four continents: alumni circles, local meetups, online gatherings where people bring the questions that only surface once you are actually teaching. Graduates collaborate on retreats together. They refer students to each other. Some end up co-teaching, some end up working with us. From the first message you send us — before you have booked anything, before you have decided — through the training itself, and long after you have flown home.
