Sagrada Wellness Yoga Retreats

Santa Margarita, California

The all-inclusive resort boasts a robust repertoire of yoga retreats, including ones that combine the practice with hiking, live music, meditation, writing, and myofascial release. Others are themed around mental wellness, such as increasing calmness, boosting resilience, and living inspired. Retreats often incorporate different yoga modalities, including Hatha, Yin, Iyengar, Ashtanga-influenced vinyasa, and Qi Gong, or even Pilates, usually with two to three classes per day.

Mexico was Sagrada Wellness’ first home before owners Scott Currie and Eva Inglizian moved to California’s Central Coast and opened the center outside San Luis Obispo. Currie, who is also an architect, designed the retreat center to be a place of reflection and rejuvenation, with nature trails, outdoor showers, a welcoming courtyard, and a hot tub and saltwater pool. Private rooms share a bathroom and communal rooms offer a more budget-friendly alternative. Both Currie and Inglizian lead retreats, and Inglizian, a practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, further helps guests on their well-being journeys through the use of acupuncture and other holistic therapies.
