Inspired by the rhythm of coastal living and the philosophy of “living your yoga,” this Portugal Retreat with Evolve Retreats invites you into an experience of deep restoration, meaningful connection, and embodied presence. Set in the stunning seaside village of Azenhas do Mar, Portugal, this retreat blends thoughtfully themed yoga practices, mindfulness, reflection, nourishing meals, ocean air, and spacious time to slow down and simply be.
Throughout the week, guests will experience a balance of intentional practice and easeful exploration through daily movement, meditation, journaling, group connection, local adventure, and free time to rest, wander the coastline, swim in the ocean, or soak in the beauty of Portugal’s relaxed pace of life.
Rooted in the heart of Evolve Retreats, this experience is designed to go beyond a traditional yoga retreat, offering space to reconnect with yourself, build meaningful community, and explore what it truly means to live your yoga both on and off the mat.

“My first ever time with Evolve Retreats and it surpassed my expectations! Mikaela is a gentle, empathetic and strong spaceholder who brings the right kind of people together and knows what she’s doing. You can tell that hosting Retreats is where all of her strengths come together and that she deeply cares about her participants and their experiences. I loved what we created as a group during Yoga, Sharing Circles and Off-Site adventures. It’s incredible how our group bonded within days. If you are looking for a fun, connecting and deeply nourishing Retreat experience – congrats, you’ve found it!” – Lisa | Vienna, Austria
“Evolve retreats has a way of staying with you long after you leave. From the moment you arrive, you feel the intentionality behind everything Mikaela creates. The balance was perfect: yoga, pilates, movement, incredible food, and real connection with amazing humans. Sunrises, sunsets, laughter, tears of joy, tears of life breakthroughs, it’s all part of it. What makes Evolve different is that it nurtures you on every level. Mikaela and Mama Sue create a container where the friendships feel genuine, the breakthroughs feel safe, and everything feels just natural. This was my second retreat and I’m already planning to come back.” – Sara | Vancouver, British Columbia
“This retreat will be remembered for years to come. Mikaela is extremely professional yet very loving and personable. Her daily themes allowed us to explore what yoga is all about without making it feel like we’re in school. Like minded souls coming together and living our best lives. I highly recommend doing one of her retreats. I know I’ll be returning.” – Jennifer | Ottawa, Ontario
