    Immerse yourself in the magic of Maui through daily yoga, sacred ceremony, breathtaking wild landscapes, and the healing power of sisterhood. This is an invitation to reconnect with your wild nature, awaken your spirit, and experience the beauty and aloha of the remote side of the island.

     

    Step into the untamed beauty of Maui—and into your own renewal.

     

    Join us for an 8 day, all-inclusive yoga retreat set on private land in a remote, lush region of Maui rarely seen by tourists. Hidden in one of the island’s most pristine regions lies a vibrant landscape known as the Land of Rainbows, where sun and rain create daily prisms of light, waterfalls pour through ancient lava rock, and nature pulses with life force. This is a Maui few ever experience—and it is here that our retreat unfolds.

     

    This retreat offers a harmonious blend of feminine practices, holistic yoga, ceremony, and wild nature experiences in one of East Maui’s most picturesque and energetically rich locations.

     

     

    A Sacred Sanctuary

     

    Our retreat home is a serene, beautifully designed yoga sanctuary nestled on a thriving organic farm abundant with exotic fruits and medicinal plants. Centered in a spacious yoga shala with sweeping ocean views, this retreat offers an exquisite balance of simple comfort and raw, wild nature. It is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and experience yoga as a living, embodied practice—rooted in the rhythms of the Earth.

    Every detail has been thoughtfully curated to create a wholesome and joyful experience—quiet comfort, nourishing food, playful adventures and an atmosphere of ease and presence.

     

    The Experience

     

    Each day is a harmonious blend of movement, stillness, ceremony, and exploration.

    You will enjoy:

     

    🌒 Daily somatic movement, yoga, dance and breathwork practices to ground, open & restore

    🌒 Gentle afternoon sessions for integration and deep rest

    🌒 Sound healing, kirtan, and ecstatic dance

    This is yoga beyond the mat—an embodied, sensory experience that awakens vitality and nourishes the soul.

     


     

    Farm-to-Table Luxury Cuisine

     

    Meals are a highlight of the retreat. Organic farm-to-table cuisine is freshly prepared each day, with over 80% of ingredients grown onsite or sourced locally. Every meal is vibrant, nourishing, and crafted to support clarity, energy, and deep wellbeing.

     

    🌺 A Place of Origin & Inspiration

     

    This area of wild Maui holds personal significance—it is where Leala’s yoga journey began over 30 years ago and the source of inspiration behind the design and feel of Prana Yoga Studio in Edmonton. Returning here is both a homecoming and an offering—sharing this powerful place with our yoga community.

    YOUR GUIDES:

     

    Leala Enfield E-RYT 500

    Leala has been devoted to the path of yoga and embodied movement for over 30 years. Her journey began on the remote side of Maui, where she fell in love with practicing yoga in wild nature and exploring the freedom of movement, dance, and intuitive expression.

    Her passion for feminine wisdom and community led her to complete Women’s Group Facilitator Training with the Awakening Women’s Institute in 2008, and to attend the Yogini Summer Ashram in Corfu, Greece in 2010 and 2025.

    After moving to Canada, Leala met Yogrishi Vishvketu, beginning her deeper studies in Akhanda Yoga. In 2006 she founded Prana Yoga Studio, which has grown into a thriving urban yoga community and a respected center for Akhanda Yoga teachings.

    Alongside running a busy studio, Leala has raised a family, guided international yoga retreats, and taught numerous Yoga Teacher Trainings in both Canada and India.

    Her work today weaves together yoga, feminine practices, somatic awareness, and group synergy to create spaces where authentic expression, connection, and transformation can unfold.

     

     

    Aylssa Tait

    Alyssa knew at an early age that both the Jungle & the Water would always feel like home.

    After many visits to see her father while he lived in Costa Rica from 2000-2003, she had to return. Ten years ago, completing her YTT under those same stars. This was the start of her adult travels that will never end. Since then Alyssa has explored Nicaragua, Europe, India, Peru, Indonesia, Guatemala & Thailand! Amongst these travels, she has both participated in retreats as well as simply frolicking about like the Curious Creature she is.

    In 2020, she was introduced to Cacao and instantly fell in love. She didn’t know it, but Cacao was about to hold her through a season of grief. For the next two years Cacao carried her through death, loss, transformation and rebirth. Cacao called her to Peru where she spent 3 months immersing in the culture, the plants and her practice. This relationship continues to blossom each day and she shares this Heart Opening Spirit, in deep Reverence, Trust & Gratitude.

    Cacao invited her to deepen into relationship with herself as well as the world around. Leading retreats, facilitating women’s circles, and guiding Cacao Ceremonies at Festivals has become a part of her story.

    Alyssa thrives through a blend of connection & reflection. She is passionate about sharing a life of intention, through creating caring spaces & experiences

     

     

    Anika Rain RYT 500

     

    Yoga, Sanskrit for “union of the mind, body, and soul,” has been a presence in my life since the beginning. My family members and role models each embody unique adaptations of values and practices that reflect this philosophy, but when I truly fell in love with the yogic tradition I was 18 years old in India. There I spent a month in Yogrishi Vishveketu’s ashram observing him and my mother lead a 200 hour yoga teacher training. This experience inspired my own dive into a 200 hour training, which solidified my connection to the practice and integration of yogic wisdom into daily life. My love for the umbrella of conscious movement and mindful practices that includes asana blossomed over 9 months of backpacking solo across Asia. On this journey I first began to teach yoga classes and explore complimentary practices of honing the mind, heart and body, including vipassana meditation, ecstatic dance, ceremonies, and fire spinning. Following this trip I began my psychology degree at MacEwan university which continues to expand my understanding of human consciousness and refine my love for communicating it. With the completion of my 300 hour program and regular teaching experience at Prana, I continue discovering new depths of nourishment in my own practice and in sharing yoga with others.
