2027 Retreat
Oaxaca, Mexico
Join us…
Join The U Institute in Oaxaca, Mexico, for six days designed to create space—for movement, reflection, connection, exploration, and whatever might be ready to shift.
Surrounded by the color, history, food, art, and extraordinary landscape of Oaxaca, we'll step outside the rhythm of everyday life and into an experience that invites you to slow down, pay attention, and reconnect with yourself.
This retreat brings together yoga and meditation, leadership and personal-growth work, shared meals, and plenty of time to experience Oaxaca itself.
Come ready to move, explore, connect, and see what emerges when you give yourself a little room.
