A One of a Kind Cultural Immersion to the Caribbean Island

Are you an adventurous yogi?  We have 12 spots for this unique and intimate trip to Havana and Vinales, Cuba for cultural, culinary, and unique experiences with the locals.  Each morning begins with yoga, and then we're off to explore the island in the afternoon and evenings.  For this one of a kind trip, we are partnering with local guides from Heart of Travel to get a more intimate and first-hand look at the beautiful country of Cuba.  We will be traveling under the Support for the Cuban people visa and our lodging, transportation, and dining selections have all been carefully thought out to directly support Cuban entrepreneurs and small, nongovernment, businesses. *Please note: this is not a Yoga retreat but rather a Cultural Immersion trip w/ daily Yoga
