Vital Humans™

a community,

a movement,

a remembering.

Vital Humans — designed to cultivate a profoundly natural experience where people transcend convention, reconnect with themselves, nature, and each other in ways that regenerate mind and spirit long after they leave.

Through music, real food, dance, art, poetry, writing, movement, surfing, and story-telling, we open heart and mind in ways that ripple outward like a butterfly effect. Your voice and presence would be incredibly impactful — helping us spark a bottom-up wave of empowered, awakened humans. Would love to share more and invite you to be part of it.

Vital Humans is not just a “retreat”,

it is a gathering of different minds

who are like hearted.

Through guided breathwork, deep mindset recalibration, nervous system regulation, functional movement, sauna sessions, daily yoga, and somatic healing, you’ll build resilience, restore balance, and remember what it feels like to be fully alive. Expect practices that ground you, challenge you, and expand your capacity to live from alignment!
