Zazil is the Mayan word for ‘light’ and all that the idea of light signifies. On the Pacific coast of Oaxaca, Zazil is a unique retreat nestled under the southern arc of the sunlight reaching across the San Agustinillo Bay from east to west all day long. It truely offers the most spectacular panoramic sea view you can find in the Mazunte / San Agustinillo area!

e·mer·gence: the process of coming into being; becoming known; unfolding; coming to light.

Welcome to retreat, where the gentle embrace of nature meets the transformative power of self-care. Join Tanya on Vancouver Island for the Emergence Spring Retreat—a holistic experience designed to revitalize your body, mind, and spirit.

During our time together, we'll delicately tend to both body and mind through a fusion of somatic yoga practices—ranging from invigorating to restorative. Silence, stillness, connection, breath, sound, and grounding will weave seamlessly into your retreat experience. Together, let's gently awaken to our inner selves, harmonize our nervous systems, and nurture a renewal of strength, kindness, and resilience.
