Imagine this…
You wake up in a cozy bed with luxe linens, sunlight pouring through the windows and the soft breeze carrying the scent of the sea. You step outside and you feel the Portugal Sun on your skin. Coffee or tea in hand, you settle into a nourishing, all-natural breakfast alongside a table full of new friends who feel like instant kindred spirits.
Then we flow. You’re guided through a challenging yet soulful yoga practice set to the sounds of bands like The Cure, Fall Out Boy or Type O. Maybe you land a pose you’ve been working on for months—or maybe you just feel completely at home in your body for the first time in a while. The energy in the room is expansive, electric, and deeply grounding.
After practice, your day is your own. Maybe you wander the cobblestone streets of a nearby town, take a salty dip in the ocean, or you journal in the courtyard, Maybe you lay on the beach with a book or get a massage to unwind. Maybe you try surfing for the first time—or again, or just watch the waves roll in while your feet are buried in warm sand.
We'll explore some of the most iconic and breathtaking corners of Portugal, like:
🌍 Strolling through enchanting castles in Sintra
🌊 Hiking along dramatic cliffs with unforgettable ocean views
🌆 Immersing in Lisbon’s colorful culture, food scene, and nightlife
🍷 Visiting a local vineyard for wine tasting and connection
🏄🏽♂️ Surfing, swimming, or straight-up beach lounging—your call
🧘♀️ And of course, flowing, breathing, and connecting through yoga together
After our day’s adventures, we come together again for an evening yoga practice—gentle, meditative, and deeply nourishing. The kind of class that helps you settle back into your body and heart.
Dinner is communal—shared stories, belly laughs, maybe even a few tears of gratitude. Then you choose your own ending: a quiet night with a journal, hang in the living room with a few new friends, or heading into town for cocktails/mocktails and music.
This isn’t just a vacation.
It’s a reset, a recharge, and a chance to reconnect with yourself in a setting that’s pure magic.
Join us for this intimate, soul-filling retreat in coastal Portugal—where cliffside hikes, medieval castles, vibrant culture, and ocean waves meet alt-yoga vibes, deep connection, and just the right amount of wild.

Meet your Retreat host
RETREAT HOST: Crystal
Crystal Rose is latina punk who has been practicing yoga and meditation for over 15 years. Like most, she came to yoga for the physical benefits, but continued for the emotional and mental benefits. Yoga allowed her to breath deeper, reduce anxiety and increase her focus, both on the mat and in life. She has a passion for Ayurvedic Self Care and all things Lunar.
She's all about making yoga accessible to BIPOC and Alternative Folks who may be scared away from trying it because they don’t fit the stereotypical mold for a yoga practitioner. Her classes are intentional and powerful and always open to all-levels.
co-host: Kaila
Kaila will be teaching two classes / workshops on this trip! She is a adventure loving yoga teacher who has been practicing since she was a teenager and teaching for the better part of the last decade. She believes in the magic of movement and breath and the invisible connection between all things. A lover of astrology, tarot, and all things woo-woo, she’s always up for discussing the occult or participating in a ritual.
Kaila’s classes can range from energetic and challenging to slow and introspective. Each class comes from a choose-your-own-adventure approach, wherein Kaila acts as the guide, giving cues and variations, but ultimately the authority on how to move through the postures lies with each student, after all, they are the ones who know best how things feel for them. Her goal is for each student to leave her classes feeling a little more empowered in themselves.

Most morning classes will be energizing. These invigorating classes will include pose breakdowns of intermediate poses like Crow Pose, Bird of Paradise and Splits. Most evening classes will be meditative, relaxing and cooling.
Power Classes will be challenging yet accessible with options offered to meet the need of various levels of experience. Vinyasa classes are moderately paced and multi-level that link movement to breath. Yin Yoga is a grounding floor-based practice that allow the body to open and lengthen deeply with long holds. Yin Yang is a mix of Yin and Vinyasa flow to balance the lunar and solar energy within the body.

FAQS
WHY HEALTH GOTH YOGA RETREATS?
Though Health Goth Yoga invites anyone and everyone, HGY is the only brand that regularly hosts yoga retreats that are curated specifically for alternative subculture yoga students around the world and geared to those who love to adventure as well as practice yoga to emo, punk, goth alternative and metal 🤘🏽
CAN I COME IF I’M A BEGINNER OR NEW TO YOGA?
OMG yes, of course! We encourage all levels, genders, body types, ethnicities, orientations, subcultures, anyone and everybody. We get a lot of students who have never done yoga! We ask that you have an open mind + listen to your body!
WHAT IF I’M NOT ‘GOTH”? WILL I FIT IN?
10000% YES! Health Goth Yoga is totally inclusive!! We love everyone!! We don’t care if you don’t like goth music, punk, metal, indie or emo! But a lot of us definitely do! So we just ask that you come with an open mind and willingness to practice yoga to alternative music! Since I teach traditional classes at studios across Boston, there’s usually a handful students who don’t consider themselves alternative, but just love yoga and love adventure! We all vibe and get along great!
CAN I COME ALONE?
Of course, I’d say 75% of people come alone to HGY Retreats! It's a great way to focus on yourself and meet new like minded people! Everyone leaves with life long friendships!
CAN I BRING A PARTNER?
Yes, splitting a bed in a private room is a great way to offset cost! Portugal is a great trip to bring a partner to! The location of the retreat center is super central to attractions, stores, activities and the beach. Even if they don’t like yoga, they will still have fun and you can add them for just $1,275!
WHEN IS FULL PAYMENT DUE?
Six months before the start of the retreat, 50% of the remaining payment is due.
Full payment is due 3 months before the start of the retreat.
DO YOU HAVE A PAYMENT PLAN?
Yes! The deposit is $750, but we can split the rest of the payment due across 2-10 payments as long as the full amount is paid in time.
WHAT ABOUT THOSE THREE MEALS THAT AREN’T INCLUDED?
One of the best things in Portugal is the food and the cafes!! We’ll have three meals not included so that you can support other local business and have the chance to explore the city,
WHAT'S THE REFUND POLICY?
We know yoga retreats are an investment of time and money. I suggest getting Travelers Insurance after placing your deposit (up to 14 days after signing up to be covered). This can cover canceled or missed flights, lost luggage, and some travel insurance cover for sickness or cover if you want to cancel for any reason (CFAR).
If you cancel up to four months prior to retreat, any payments after your non-refundable deposit can be refunded (but not your deposit itself.) After four months, there are no refunds.
All deposits and payments can be transferred until one month prior to the retreat, but you are responsible for finding your replacement.
After one month prior to retreat, there are no refunds and no transfers. As a small one-person business that has contracts with venues and vendors, exceptions to our policy cannot be made for any reason, not even medical (that’s why you buy travel insurance.)
