2023 Mexico Zumba Yoga Retreat

~in Todos Santos, Baja, Mexico


Join us for this one-of-a-kind Zumba Yoga Retreat.  Lots of fun with daily Zumba and gentle Yoga classes.  Combined with Mexican cultural adventures and natural excursions...

This retreat was inspired by Duncan's enthusiastic students...when he goes to Mexico, many people comment they really miss his Zumba and Yoga classes!  This Mexico Zumba Yoga retreat gives you the chance to enjoy his popular classes and escape the cold of winter!

Zumba Classes

World dance-inspired fitness classes, combining dance styles such as Latin dances--like Salsa, Merengue and Reggaeton, with Tango, Belly Dance, African, Broadway and Hip-Hop.  Lovingly curated music and rhythms from around the world that make you want to boogie!

Zumba is not about being perfect, or performing.  It's about having fun and getting exercise!  Some classes will be more active, other classes will help you break down the choreography and better understand the steps.  Beginner's welcome!

Gentle Yoga Classes

Gentle yoga classes for stretching the body, calming the mind and inspiring the spirit.  Includes some simple, guided meditation practice.  These easier yoga classes provide an ideal balance to the higher activity and energy of the Zumba classes.  Restorative yoga classes may also be included.
