Retreat to Baja with Stephanie & Dawn!
We retreat to uplevel our connection to our deepest most authentic self while creating joyful memories with amazing people and building life-long community. Our yoga practices will include precious resources and tools of yoga that they have been gifted to us, not simply asana. We customize our retreat experiences to those who choose to join us, and the practices and satsang that most clearly benefit YOU!
We will be retreating at a new luxurious estate in the surf town of El Pescadero, just south of Todos Santos. Large courtyard with palms and heated custom infinity pool, air conditioning, free wifi [but we recommend unplugging and never learning the password], deluxe outdoor kitchen, yoga studio, private patios, a fenced wall around entire property, gated entrance, & security cameras. 1 mile to Cerritos Beach. Peekaboo views. All suites have their own mini fridge, coffee bar, private patio or balcony, and a private bath.
This retreat is currently not scheduled but will likely be scheduled again in November or December 2027.

Stephanie Adams Ruff
Sharing the awareness, acceptance and transformation the practice of yoga brings to our lives is what truly inspires her to teach. She has seen in others, and experienced herself, that regular practice inspires one to greater peace, authenticity, connection, and joy. In her own words,
"I am deeply thankful for what yoga has given me. Coming from a youth of trauma and fear, I have found deep love, connection and trust in life. I am in awe of this practice. It is so much more than what most people know or imagine it to be. Words cannot begin to describe the reverence and respect I have for this tradition. Thank you to all of my teachers, trainees and students. Deep bow to my yoga community. 🙏🏼✨🙏🏼"
Stephanie has been practicing yoga since 1994 and training teachers since 2000. Some of her credentials include: 500 hour ERYT, YACEP, Certified Personal Trainer, Bodymind Academy Fitness & Nutrition Consultant, Orthopedic Exercise Specialist, SAYF-Certified, and CETI Cancer Exercise Specialist.

Fee Adjustments:
~~ $100 less if coming as a guest, not attending yoga ~ ~
~ ~ $100 more if attending for TT or CE hours ~ ~
If you are attending on your own, we would suggest staying in the Baja Bunkhouse Suite and we will pair you with a roommate or two. In our experience, this is an amazing opportunity to build community and develop lasting relationships. Quad pricing options are for close friends or couples good with sharing one or two Double Bed(s) in a shared room.
Food: Serve yourself coffee/tea, granola/yogurt, avocado/eggs will be available (pre-practice light nutrition) in our shared kitchen. Delicious lunches included most days (except on our Tu/Th “adventure or chill” days). Nutritionally-trained local caterer will be emphasizing local, fresh, healthy, and mostly organic food for our lunches. Most dinners are on our own, but group options at incredible nearby restaurants will be available. There are a couple food options within walking distance (restaurants and market), as well, so you can eat in the neighborhood, or shop and prepare your own breakfasts/dinners onsite in our shared kitchen.
Ground Transportation: The retreat is about an hour's drive from SJD airport. For maximum freedom and access, we recommend renting a car with a friend. Use Cactus Rental (rental cars in Baja are super tricky, so they have made it easier). This can give you lots of free time and meals-on-your-own options: Cerritos Beach, Todos Santos, and other adventures. We will also rent a passenger van, and anyone who would like rides to/from the airport (and to local dinners and excursions), will contribute $100 (instead of renting a car). There will be just one airport pick-up on Nov 26th in the mid-afternoon and drop-off on Dec 3rd in the mid-morning (we will do our best to find a time that works for the majority of people). Taxis and the bus (for those travel adventurous – the bus system in the area is pretty good) are also good options.
