Program Details
Each morning Georgia or Ame will alternate leading a two-hour sweaty solar-inspired asana practice, and each late afternoon, a 90-minute cooling lunar-inspired asana and meditation practice. The rest of the day is limitless: bask in the sun on a white sand beach, ride the panga (a traditional fishing boat) to see dolphins, whales and sea turtles, (time out, fresh guacamole and chips anyone?), nap in your open-air suite, surf the waves only steps away from your bed or for the novice surfers- take a lesson, or for the foodies- take a cooking class, get a massage or facial, take a hike through the surrounding jungle…just be sure to fit it all in before a delicious candlelit dinner with friends.

About the Teacher
ABOUT AME (www.amewren.com):
Based in Boston, Ame is a self-proclaimed -yoga mutt.- Her teaching is a hybrid of many styles of yoga as well as other movement modalities. She is known for lacing her classes with humor while instilling the importance of proper alignment and smart transitioning to craft a sustainable yoga practice. Continually humbled by the practice and her students, Ame hopes to contribute to the ever-evolving world of vinyasa yoga by encouraging appreciation and the creation of quiet space. Ame wholeheartedly believes yoga can be an amazing addition to anyones life and does not need to be achieved or attained, just enjoyed and explored. She is greatly indebted to all of her teachers past and present and is continually inspired by her NYC home away from home, Kula Yoga Project. Ame is a Lululemon Ambassador and was recently named Best Yoga Instructor in the 2010 Boston magazine -Best of Boston- awards. She leads teacher trainings and retreats nationally and internationally and is a featured teacher at Wanderlust Festival.
ABOUT GEORGIA (www.bluelightyoga.com):
Georgia teaches flow classes with a strong emphasis on alignment. She is known for her smart, creative and authentic sequences that are challenging yet accessible. Through the use of repetition, pranayama (or control of the breath), bandhas (or internal locks), groovy tunes, and with a deep respect for the cleansing power of sweat, her classes are designed to ease her students into a transformative space where she lovingly encourages and guides them across boundaries into unknown territory. Georgia tries hard to acknowledge and honor all transitions that occur in her classes, whether in physical poses, state of minds, or state of beings. Her intention is for students to learn and find inspiration in every class. In addition to being a certified yoga teacher, Georgia is a Columbia University trained mental health counselor, an adoring wife, and an ever-loving and ever-grateful mama.
