Nia + Yoga Revive Retreat with Jill Factor and Kelle Rae Oien

The Nia + Yoga Revive Retreat is a week-long yoga and movement retreat at Xinalani Retreat near Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico, led by Nia trainer Kelle Rae Oien and Power Vinyasa teacher Jill Factor. It suits anyone who wants a Nia and yoga retreat in Mexico, from first-timers to seasoned movers, with a warm, judgement-free group and a good deal of fun built into every day.

What to Expect

Nia is a mind-body-spirit practice, and here it sits alongside Vinyasa yoga, meditation, Nia Floorplay and The 5 Stages of Self Healing. Together they make up what the teachers call a healthy movement menu for the week. Some sessions are held on the beach.

The days follow an easy rhythm with two movement classes and long, unhurried meals:

- 7:00 am: morning coffee and snacks
- 8:00 am: Nia or yoga class
- 10:00 am: breakfast
- 2:30 pm: lunch
- 5:30 pm: Nia or yoga class
- 7:30 pm: dinner

The afternoon is left open between lunch and the evening class, with a kayak and snorkel equipment included for time on the water.
