The resort is very family friendly. There are lots of activities for friends and family who may be travelling with you but do not wish to take Maya's yoga class.
Visit the gallery page to see some great photos taken by the 2018 participants.
What makes Mar de Jade extrordinary is its humanitarian mission. It supports a private Montessori/Waldorf school for local children, an 18-acre organic farm, and job training for local young people.
The farm supplies the resort with fresh produce and chicken for the meals.
More information will be added as when we get closer to the workshop.

The closest major airport is Gustavo Diaz Ordaz International Airport, Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco. Airport code: PVR.

But it is a little early to do this – we will send an email out a few months before the workshop reminding you to do this. It is highly recommended that you let Mar de Jade handle the shuttle to and from the resort. It much cheaper if you share the ride with others – with 8 passengers, the cost was about $25.00.
