Yoga Adventures + Service Projects
Bringing my profound love for curating intentional, healing, inspirational experiences combined with travel, movement, mindfulness, PLAYfulness, as well as, service…is ME living my dream and getting to do it with YOU.
Since my first retreat to Cabo San Lucas almost 15 years ago, I’ve created upwards of 40 yoga adventures + service projects around the globe including: Tanzania, Nicaragua, Belize, Mexico (Tulum, Isla Mujeres, Todos Santos, Cabo San Lucas, Sayulita, Quimixto) Costa Rica, The Islands of Hawaii (Maui & The Big Island), Cambria, California, Blackberry Farm-a 4,200 acre luxury destination in The Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee, as well as, local retreats like the Manzanita, The Coast Range in Vernonia and a beautiful property in Banks, Oregon.
I’ve had the awesome pleasure of creating memories with over 1,000 yogi friends as we’ve explored the practices of yoga, various cultures and far-away lands.
Next up?
Tamarindo-Costa Rica, Brsečine-Croatia, more Mexico time in Quimixto & Isla Mujeres, beautiful Lefkada-Greece, a return to Africa and more.
I’d be so honored to have you join us someday soon!
Retreat Testimonials
“Around 2011, I was going through deep personal turmoil and during this transition enrolled in a 200 hr yoga teacher training program in Portland, OR. I was a successful professional but needed a varied and positive outlet. My intention wasn’t to teach but rather to learn. As part of the curriculum, Jill taught a very vigorous anatomy course. She inspired me because she was technical and disciplined, but also inspirational with her understanding of the divine connection between the yoga mat and our body and mind. Her flow choreography stood out to the point one would reflect and think- that woman has a gift. One of my dearest friends and I booked a retreat with Jill to Mexico in January 2023, knowing we wanted a vacation and yoga that would push us beyond our comfort level of growth. We went and it was truly magical. My soul is so proud of what Jill has done with her craft. She is a studious teacher and it shines through in her message and variation in the way we move our bodies. I feel a new welcoming to yoga and all of its blessings because of my experience. Jill is on a quest to take us to new spaces within ourselves, a balance of calm and progress. I am so excited to loosen my grip on life and rest in to the moment. Thank you, Jill!” – Shana D
“I had taken a few years off from yoga when one of my besties asked me if I would be interested in going on a yoga retreat that Jill was leading in Quimixto, Mexico. Mexico in Jan? Yoga with Jill? A week with my amazing friend? Yes, Yes and Yes please! I am so glad I jumped in. It was even better than I imagined. Jill thought of every detail and created an experience that will stay with me forever. The setting was amazing, the hotel was postcard-fabulous, the food healthy and delicious, the spa massages were decadent and healing. And the yoga…it was first class, top-notch, honestly the best yoga classes I have ever taken. With a 90 minute morning class and an hour late afternoon class, I was worried I wouldn’t be able to keep up since it had been a while. But, Jill creates a non-judgmental, kind, encouraging, always different yoga experience-showing up with immense preparedness. She has an ability to connect with everyone in their practice with a presence that pulls you right in. Her energy and personality shines bright. Her music is thoughtful, fun, perfectly synced with the class. In no time I found my way back.
Not only did we practice yoga but Jill organized an afternoon boat trip to Yelapa, as well as, a waterfall hike. There were excursion options or you could choose to relax on the beach or by the pool. You get to create your own experience.
I loved Jill’s retreat so much that right after I got home, I booked another one!! Isla Mujeres 2024!!!” – Karen W
