The Instructors

Arthur Uratani:
Hi everyone, Arthur here! I'll be one of your instructors for this amazing retreat in Belize. Having just come back from another Yoga Beyond the Studio retreat in Belize in January, as you can see, I can't wait to go back!

I have been teaching yoga for over eight years and Sculpt for over three years. I have led and coached close to 10 yoga and Sculpt teacher trainings for CorePower Yoga. What brings me the most joy is seeing you find success and happiness in your yoga practice. You can expect a few things from every class I teach: motivational storytelling, creative flows/poses/transitions, breaking down advanced poses, and lots of juicy twists and stretching.

I also love to travel. My favorite countries to travel to (at the moment) are Japan, Switzerland, and Portugal. I have gone on yoga retreats in Morocco, Mexico, Greece, Guatemala, and Belize. If you have more recommendations, I'm all ears.

A few fun facts about myself: I have taught yoga to both Michelle Obama and Katy Perry, I currently live in Washington DC working as a marketing director, and I know every line from the Simpsons (seasons 1-10) and Seinfeld by heart.

Maryam Kashkooli:
My relationship with yoga began almost a decade ago as a personal quest to find healing and balance for my body after years of battling chronic back pain. Through yoga, I discovered not only physical healing but also a profound sense of inner peace and balance. From the intensity of power vinyasa to the gentle surrender of restorative yin, I practice and offer a variety of yoga styles.

In addition to my passion for yoga, I'm also an avid traveler and have been to 33 countries. I've been privileged to have experienced trekking through the Andes mountains, skiing in the slopes of the Alps, cycling through the starkness of the world's driest desert, and the rich tapestry of cultures in the Middle East and North Africa. Along the way, I've found that the practice of yoga transcends borders and languages, serving as a universal language of connection and well-being. I cherish the opportunity to connect with people from diverse backgrounds and cultures, fostering understanding and unity through shared experiences.

I aim to create a welcoming space where you can explore the depths of your practice, cultivate mindfulness, and gain confidence and contentment. Whether you're seeking to build strength, find inner peace, or simply connect and create friendships with like-minded individuals, I'm here to support you every step of the way!

The Yoga

Throughout this retreat, we will offer yoga and meditation classes catered towards all levels with an emphasis for beginners to yoga.

We absolutely welcome those who have never done yoga before! You will have an amazing time on this retreat.

Each day we will build on the lessons from the day before ensuring you return home with a new found yoga practice that you can continue to nurture and grow on your own.

On this retreat, you will enjoy 1 - 2 yoga classes daily. We will explore movements that promote healthy bodies as well as quiet time for meditation and healing of the mind.

Most of our yoga sessions will be in a stone and mosaic filled cottage. Some of our yoga will also be poolside!

(Advanced practitioners are welcome and encourage to experience a week of connecting to the foundation of our yoga practice)

The Adventure

Two unbelievable adventure tours are included in this amazing retreat:

Cave Tubing

Your cave tubing adventure begins with a jungle hike above the Mayan Caves. Enter the Caves Branch River in your inner tubes and float downstream and through the caves and see their wonders (think lazy rive, Belize style!)

Altun Ha Mayan Ruin

Altun Ha Mayan Ruin is in Belize Boutique Resort and Spa's backyard. A twenty-minute drive to Lucky Strike Village, where Altun Ha Mayan Ruin is located, uncovers the temple of the sun god. Altun Ha Mayan Ruin was discovered in 1957 while building the Pan American Highway through Belize.
