Wellness Retreats for Entrepreneurs and Ambitious Professionals
Hosted in the beautiful colonial town of Antigua Guatemala, these retreats will have a strong focus on your personal well-being, with a mix of relaxation and adventure. We're focused on helping entrepreneurs like YOU create more balance in your life and business so that you can make a greater impact in your community.

If we haven't met, I'm Shayah!
I actually "get" what you do and fully understand the challenges that come along with being an ambitious entrepreneur. I understand the struggle of trying to do ALL the things, show up for your clients/customers, have a personal life, and create balance with everything!🤪
Before starting Virtuwell Balance, I was running my health and wellness business as a registered holistic nutritionist and yoga teacher. I was working 1:1 with clients, running online group programs, designed my own recipe books, and hosted yoga retreats abroad. I built my own website, ran email marketing campaigns, grew a loyal social media following, and sold out my first yoga retreat in Nicaragua. I learned A LOT along the way about how to create a successful health, wellness, or fitness business fully remote.
​
After becoming successful in building and leveraging my own platforms to grow my revenue and increase my impact, I realized I also had a passion for design and marketing. This is how Virtuwell Balance was born!
I now combine my skills and experience, with the help of the VB team, to support other entrepreneurs with growing their revenue and increasing their impact.
The Inspiration for these Retreats...
After 4 years of working in the design and marketing industry with hundreds of businesses, I've noticed a common theme among ambitious and heart-led entrepreneurs...
​
They give, give, give, without taking enough time to fill their own cup.
When you are passionate about what you do and you love your work, it's easy to forget to take a break and slow down. But it's necessary, not only for you, but for your business and your clients/customers as well. When you feel your best you can produce your best work and create a greater impact in your community.
​
THAT is the idea behind Virtuwell Balance retreats :)

RETREAT DETAILS
We are still in the planning phase and solidifying the activities and workshops included. After you pay your deposit, you will receive a survey/questionnaire to vote and give suggestions.
WHEN AND WHERE
​
Antigua, Guatemala! Antigua is a 480 year old town and a UNESCO world heritage site. It's surrounded by volcanos, full of colonial style buildings, and cobblestone streets.
You will need to fly to GUA (Guatemala city airport) and Antigua is a 45 minute drive depending on traffic when you arrive.
Arrive any time after 11am on Saturday November 4th (I would like to plan a welcome dinner for everyone on this day if we can all arrive before dinner time) and leave any time on Wednesday November 8th (unless you decide to extend your trip longer!)
​
We have the beautiful Ojala Hotel all to ourselves. Check them out on Instagram. You can choose between a shared dorm room, queen room, or king room (first come first serve).
​
All transportation within country for activities is included as well as airport pick-up and drop-off.
FOOD AND DRINK
Breakfast every morning is provided by our hotel. They serve two options: typico (this is typical Guatemalan breakfast with fried or scrambled eggs, black beans, fried plantains, tortillas, fresh fruit), OR a muesli yogurt bowl (oatmeal granola with yogurt and toppings of grated apple, banana, chia, raisins, macadamia nuts, coconut). Both options include coffee, tea, or juice.
Welcome dinner on the first night and farewell dinner on the last night is provided by Virtuwell Balance. Restaurants for this are to be announced.
​
All other meals, snacks, and alcohol is not included but we have many great suggestions and tips for restaurants! A few places we will go eat as a group (like the spa) but meals are not included.
​
Please let us know if you have any special dietary needs/allergies.
