8 Day Yoga and Kite Boarding with Eco Hotel Stay in Cabarete

Facilities

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

The Yoga Loft partnered with the Kite Lounge for a one-week intensive kite boarding program. 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 Kite Lounge provides top-level service, high quality equipment, and over eight years of experience in Kite beach. The Kite Lounge supports and empowers local Dominicans to train to be instructors, with the majority of the staff being born-and-raised Dominican. You will be able to support sustainable tourism while getting fit and having an amazing adventure in the knowledgeable hands of the Kite Lounge crew.

Tour of Taino organic farm

This half day experience will teach you about aquaponics and sustainable agriculture, as well as get you into the local culture of rural Dominican Republic. The Taino organic farm grows a variety of fruit, vegetables, and super foods which you’ll be able to taste fresh off the trees during your tour.

River tubing at Yasica River

After the farm tour, be ready to head down to the beautiful Yasica River. The cooling fresh waters will be your guide as you float peacefully downstream from 1 to 2 hours. Adventurists are invited to scramble up a jungle side cliff and jump from an overhanging tree into the crystal waters below. Afterwards you’ll enjoy a lunch prepared from fresh organic produce.

The retreat will be held in Cabarete, Dominican Republic. Cabarete is best known as one of the world’s meccas for kite boarding. 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, modern community who 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 organic, natural, farm fresh, and unaltered ingredients supplied by the Yoga Loft's own Taino organic farm.

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 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 and those on gluten and lactose restricted diets, however, unfortunately they do not have the ability to cater to vegans or raw foodies yet.
