I enjoyed the classes and the facility, but I do want to say that one of the teachers was super inappropriate when correcting my form. I told her I was doing it to the best of my ability and she kept telling me to straighten and lock my leg. It got to the point where I wanted to wear headphones to class to boldly ignore her. I forget her name but i think it was marianela, or something like that. I teach as a yoga instructor in Chicago and this was totally inappropriate. I only continued to go because it was the only option for a hot class in Merida.

All the instructors were very knowledgeable and welcoming. If I lived in Merida this would definitely be my go-to yoga studio. Prices are a bit high for Mexico but you'll truly get the best practice EVER. Studio is spacious clean and well maintained.

The grounds are of a lush manicured jungle with foot paths numerous fruit trees, bamboo and palms. There was a beautiful natural pool which was lovely, empty and cold. The sleeping accommodations vary from bamboo huts to our free standing, family suite which was labelled as the Safari Room. It was a clean, spacious unit offering 4 full size beds, tile floors, a hot shower, a quaint porch and even mosquito nets although they were not needed. Breakfast was included which was a fresh fruit plate with a souffle cup of yogurt, a strong cup of coffee, followed by fresh toasted bread with marmalade and then the main course of your choice. Either scrambled eggs with or without ham, a Mexican scramble or hot cakes. Dinner was available which offered steak, poc chuc (pork loin marinated), pollo pibil (chicken breast marinated in sour orange and mayan spices), pasta, fish entrees and some standard Mexican fare. The Pollo Pibil was excellent and the moistest chicken breast I may have ever eaten. The marinated chicken was cooked while wrapped in banana leaves. It was the winner of the night for my family's "best entree ordered" contest. Sure, I could complain about the occasional dog barking in the distance or the hot water heater that needed relighting. But, I am sure that even heaven may have a few flaws outside its gates.
