Body Safari Pilates Retreat

Pilates, Flexagility and other intelligent movement disciplines, are not workouts, but the way out. The way out of oblivion, out of discontent, out of discomfort, out of pain, out of disillusionment.

Body Safari at Prana del Mar is an immersion in Pilates principles and philosophy, in cognitive functional movement and somatics, in better grasping of your own anatomy, and in the state of grace called flexibility.

Seminars in your 6 senses – seeing, listening, tasting, sniffing, felt sense, and balance – heighten your concentration, perception and physical excellence. Practice of the language of Pilates brings you to your brain in your body, and to a quiet confidence and self-awareness.

You are safe, you are accountable, you are autonomous.

Retreat from the shallows of the public world.

Retreat to you.

Each day of the event, join us on the beach for a silent stretch class at 7:30 am. At the bell ring, we walk up to the Movement Room for an hour or more of Pilates and then replenish with brunch. You have the morning to run the beach, walk the labyrinth, build your own labyrinth, get a massage, swim laps in the pool, or take a nap.

In the afternoon, we reverse the order of integration. At 4:30 a mat class on one of several themes, for example, Egg for Power or DaVinci’s Man or giving up your champagne butt for a Kodo Drummer butt, and then back to the beach for a sunset stretch. A fabulous healthy dinner awaits.
