“Just returned from the most transformational, meticulously crafted, and inspired yoga retreat at Jungle Keva in Tulum, MX.
The retreat was organized and lead by Leslie Corren, a gifted yoga instructor, who seamlessly and intelligently possesses an innate ability to weave thousand year old teachings into relatable stories. Meaningful, well placed music plays int the background and enhances the practice. All yoga levels are made to feel comfortable.
Leslie's yoga retreat exceeded expectations. She not only taught different styles with inspiring dharmas both mornings and afternoons, but also arranged for a transcending Sound Healing and an authentic Cacao Ceremony.
We practiced all of this in the most beautiful, serene environment. We also had free time to explore Tulum, as well as planned excursions to a beautiful beach club, a luxury Cenote sanctuary, a group dinner out, and a private chef who served us lunch, brunch, and dinner with fresh fruit cocktails in our Villa's kitchen; all healthy, fresh and the presentation and taste was exquisite!
We came to this experience as an unconnected group and joyfully left forever woven together trough this wonderful experience!"

“Leslie pours herself in all she does and this retreat was no different.
It was evident that she did a lot of planning beforehand. From yoga sessions, dharma talks, extracurriculars, hiring private chefs, and planning our outings - nothing was missed.
Leslie cares for her students on a deep level. When practicing with her, she sees your whole person, not just a body on a mat. She has an unmatchable yogic gift and is patient, kind, and very approachable. Spending a week with her and the other yogis was exactly what I needed. I felt guided and supported from day one, The friendships I made in Tulum are ones that will last a very long time. Thank you, Leslie!”

“I had a life changing experience while on my retreat with Leslie and would recommend this trip to absolutely anyone.
I am a first time yoga practitioner an was nervous about slowing people down, or being too new to the practice. Leslie made me feel extremely welcomed and there was not a single moment of the retreat where I felt out of place. I never felt single out, and was supported by Leslie and the whole Tulum 2023 crew to become the best yogi possible. Leslie helped with my poses, breathing, and understanding of the practice itself.
What is imperative to understand about this retreat, is that it is not all about the poses! We are able to self-reflect, dive deeper into our own psyche, and learn a lot about ourselves. We participated in sound healing ceremonies, cacao ceremonies, various styles of yoga, and s much more. All of this combined into an amazing spiritual journey that I think would benefit anyone.
We also had an amazing time when not being “spiritual”. We had amazing food and drinks, we danced, shopped say Mayan ruins, went to the beach, explored natural landmarks, and got to know an amazing group of new people along the way.
I could write 100 pages about how this trip with Leslie changed my life. If you’re curious to learn more about this trip from the morning yoga to the small details in between, please reach out! You’ll be glad you did!”

“I recently went on Leslie’s first yoga retreat in Tulum, Mexico and it was one of the best experiences I have ever had! I do not practice yoga but decided to go to learn about yoga.
I could not have asked for a more beautiful setting or better teacher. Before this retreat, I thought yoga was about the poses and physicality, but I learned that yoga is much more than that - it is actually about finding your true self and living life purposefully and peacefully. Leslie’s teachings every morning and evening were deep, but she spoke plainly so that the messages were comprehensible and I was able to internalize the messages. Beyond the yoga classes, there were plenty of fun activities, including cenote and beach days, zip lining shopping and dancing. Furthermore, all the meals at Jungle Keva were amazing!
In conclusion, all I can say is that the experience more than exceeded my expectations and that I would participate in any retreat Leslie creates. Since coming back from the retreat, I genuinely feel lighter and unchained. I cannot pinpoint the moment of this transformation, but it is real and honest. I have also decided to start practicing yoga at home. Leslie, thank you for opening my eyes to a whole new world!”

“I just wanted to thank you so much for organizing this beautiful retreat. It was truly a transformative experience for me.
Jungle Keva’s lushness and greenery created a tranquil and lovely environment for yoga and mindfulness.
Your yoga classes felt so familiar to me. I so much appreciated your music selection, affirmations, your direction and your attention to accommodate all levels.
The food was next level. Everything was fresh and delicious… the restaurants, the private chefs and even the food at the beach club and cenote were all fantastic!
I ams mut mention the cacao ceremony and the sound meditation. These experiences took me to a place of true peace and appreciation. As I stated at the end of the ceremony, when we went around the room to describe what we were feeling… I truly felt connected.
Thank you for creating a retreat that I will treasure forever!”
