Yoga is so much more than the physical asana practice. It is a profound science with specific methodologies that will awaken your spirit and align your life. This seven day intensive will be 100 hours of the 200 hour training curriculum. Guests have the option of participating in the training or just coming for a luxurious retreat at a 5-star oceanfront retreat center! Whether you desire to be a yoga teacher or not, participating in a yoga training and learning how to integrate these truths into your life is one of the most impactful decisions you can make.

The days will be jam-packed with meditation, breathwork, workshops, asana flows, and nightly satsangs involving group connection exercises, sound healing, dance and restorative practices. If you are desiring to get your Yoga Alliance accredited 200 hour teacher training certificate, you will be required to be at all activities. However, if your life is calling for a retreat in a magical place with uplifting, like-minded souls, the week is also open for those who wish to come and attend some of the classes and workshops but also desire to relax, get daily spa treatments or go on diving excursions and explore the adorable beach towns of Isla Mujeres.

*Not included: Flights, Transport (Tax & Ferry), Travel Insurance, Additional Excursions, Spa Treatments

This transformative experience will be held in Isla Mujeres, Mexico! Isla Mujeres is a small, vibrant island just a 20-minute ferry ride from the bustling city of Cancun. We will be staying at a stunning, 5-star, oceanfront retreat center with a covered rooftop yoga shala, salt water pool, private beach access, spa, and tons of cozy spaces for relaxation and rejuvenation.

Accommodation includes three nourishing meals per day prepared by local, five-star holistic chefs. The island is only 5 miles by ½ mile so exploring on foot or by golf cart are great options for heading to local public beaches, exploring the cute towns or going to see the ruins. There are also amazing excursion options from the island that can be booked upon arrival.

Guest Rooms are specifically designed for ultimate peace and relaxation. There are options for a solo room, a double shared room, or a triple & quad room. Rooms are situated against the backdrop of the serene Caribbean coastline. All rooms are designed to better assist you in connecting to God’s spirit within and nature. The retreat center does have free WIFI (so not total disconnection!)

Spirit Lit Yoga is an evolution of 20+ years of Tracey’s teaching and training experience. If you have been to one of Tracey’s retreats in the past or practice with her weekly in Delray Beach, you know that Vinyasa Yoga and the love of movement are her passions. 

In this training, you will learn sequencing specific to the Anuttara Yoga lineage while learning to integrate the philosophy and spirituality of yoga into the structure of the class. This lineage is unique and one of the most metaphysically profound sciences of our time. This training will completely open your heart and give you divine direction for your life. As such, it will equip you to share this healing science with others through your own teaching and your life.

Spirit Lit Yoga is part of the Kriya Yoga lineage incorporating all facets of the science, from meditation and concentration, to breathwork and specific, anatomically and cosmologically aligned movements.

 The schedule will begin at sunrise with morning silent meditation, devotions, and a vinyasa yoga practice. After a breakfast break, workshops will begin. These workshops will cover the entirety of the Yoga Alliance required material for 200 hour yoga teacher certification including: philosophy, history, lineage, energetics, pranayama, meditation, Ayurveda, anatomy, physiology, asana, sequencing, teaching, and more!

As the training is just 7 days, there will be portions of the training done live via zoom and in an online platform prior to the in-person portion in Isla Mujeres. If completing the required training online is not something you wish to do, there will be another in-person training option during the year that you may attend to accrue the other 100 required hours.

Students will be practicing three times each day to integrate the teachings into their bodies. By the end, students will be teaching and guiding each other through the practices. Upon completion of all training materials and tests, students will receive a Yoga Alliance accredited 200 Hour Spirit Lit Yoga Teacher Training Certification that will allow them to be able to teach yoga classes!

For those who wish to participate in this life-changing experience but NOT get certified, you have FULL ACCESS to attend any and all training, workshops, and yoga classes while utilizing free time to relax, rejuvenate, participate in spa services, excursions, or exploring around the island.

The nightly satsangs will be a time of connection, healing, growth, and inspiration for all participants. These group gatherings are what actually makes the retreats such a dynamic, magical experience. Creating a container of love for transformation to flourish is my number one goal in the planning of the curriculum, schedule, location and activities of each retreat.

We chose Isla Mujeres for the ease of travel! There are hundreds of domestic flights to Cancun everyday. Upon arrival at Cancun airport, there are multiple transportation options available to take you the 30-minute ride to the ferry dock where you can board the Ultramar ferry  to take you on the 20 minute ride to Isla Mujeres.

*If you live far away and many layovers are required to get to Cancun, the best option may be to arrive early and stay in Isla Mujeres or elsewhere in Mexico at another resort. If this is something you are interested in, I can definitely help you with planning and have a personal private tour guide/ transporter who I have used for years there.
