Facilities

During your retreat, you will start your day with a morning yoga practice and then proceed with a post-practice breakfast by the beach. Then you will have some free time to do any activity you would like. Your kiteboarding lessons will be held in the early afternoon and another yoga practice will take place before the beach-front dinner with the group. Close your day with your downtime or go out and explore the surrounding areas of Kite beach.

The kiting program is geared towards your skill level, whether you are a total beginner, getting comfortable with the sport, or a well-tested kiter looking to hone your skills in the home of world champions.

The Yoga Loft supports and empowers local Dominicans IKO certified instructors. You will be able to support sustainable tourism while getting fit and having an amazing adventure in the knowledgeable hands of your teacher.

The retreat will be held in Cabarete, Dominican Republic. Cabarete is best known as one of the world’s meccas for kiteboarding. The sport is popular due to the consistent winds nearly year-round, so it is one of the best places to learn, practice, and perfect the sport. Cabarete however, has so much to offer beyond kiting.

It also is a fantastic surf location for both beginners and advanced surfers with waves reaching double overhead in the fall when the wind dies down. Most of the breaks are coral-based, making the perfect formation when the conditions are right. Cabarete also has horseback riding, beautiful lagoons for paddle boarding, and waterfalls to be explored.

Due to the active community that frequents Cabarete, the town is full of healthy eating options, ecological businesses, and sustainable tourism. Cabarete is home to a lively international community that supports local development through private business operations and non-government organizations.

The center of Cabarete is full of international restaurants, bars, live music venues, and much more. The Yoga Loft believes in living a balanced life, so for those who enjoy the nightlife as well as the day, you would not be short of options.

All breakfasts and dinners are included in the retreat. The Yoga Loft believes that how you feed your body is as much of a part of a yogic life as breathing. The food served is made from mostly organic, natural, fresh, and unaltered ingredients supplied by selected small local businesses who deliver several times per week.

The menu is carefully planned to provide fuel and energy to your body to keep it running at its top level. Every bit of food is prepared at the same day with love and will be enjoyed with just as much zealous pleasure as that with which it was created. The Yoga Loft can cater to vegetarians however, unfortunately they do not have the ability to cater to vegans or raw foodies yet although 75% of the meals are vegan.
