ANASTAJA
What to Expect
This retreat is a sacred interruption to the stress and strain of daily life—a gentle rebellion against the noise, the rush, and the distraction.
Held in the heart of the lush Panamanian jungle,
Whispers of the Wild invites you to slow down, reconnect, and remember what truly matters. Through movement, stillness, and the healing power of nature, we return to a life of reverence, joy, and deep connection.
Each day begins with intentional vinyasa and meditation in the open-air jungle shala, alive with birdsong and breeze. Evenings invite you to soften through gentle, restorative practices lulled by the rhythm of soothing ocean waves.
As part of our shared journey, you’ll also be guided beyond the mat to explore the magic of Panama itself.
Our group excursions include a Boat & Wildlife Tour through the breathtaking archipelago of Bocas del Toro, where the heartbeat of the islands reawakens your sense of wonder.
Under the cloak of night we will glide through glowing waters on a Bioluminescence Tour.
Whether you're journaling by the pool, reading that book you’ve longed to finish, adventuring through the verdant jungle on horseback, or pedaling a beach cruiser into the wild unknown—you’ll remember yourself as sacred again.

Meals are prepared by our private chef and include unlimited Panamanian coffee, tea, fresh cut tropical fruit, and hot dishes - like ham and egg cups with crispy hash browns. Yoga programming includes 2 days of sacred silence, the opportunity to digitally detox, reset your nervous system, and reprogram your mind, body, and soul through a curated sequence of movement, breath, and mantra.
Each day offers the opportunity for relaxation and recalibration. Turn your face to the sun and lounge by the pool while lazy sloths curl in the canopy. Find your breath in meditation as the monkeys chatter and swing from the treetops. Walk barefoot along the beach and watch as exotic birds announce their presence with bursts of color and song; or book a much-needed massage through the spa services.
This is not just a retreat—it’s a rewilding of the heart.
A return to yourself through deep reconnection with nature.

About
As a teacher, I consider space-holding to be both an honor and an art, and I strive to create a sacred container for others to feel held and supported in their healing journey. My goal is to encourage students to practice from a place of curiosity and compassion while investigating the power of breath-work, movement, mindfulness, and stillness. I am dedicated to helping others cultivate self-awareness and learn to alchemize life in ways that support personal growth, intentional living, and the continued evolution of our collective consciousness. I strongly believe yoga can help us take radical responsibility for ourselves so we can become more effective agents of positive change in our immediate and global communities. My classes vary from long restorative meditations and gentle flows to challenging vinyasas, and are introspective, light hearted, and balanced.
