Germany Berlin-Bezirk Tempelhof-Schöneberg paid

Ancestral Retreats grew from founder Carolina’s search for healing: after an ayahuasca ceremony in 2015, she travelled to Rishikesh for yoga teacher training and began imagining a supportive place for personal growth. The retreat community took shape in Palomino, Colombia, where its team of healers and holistic practitioners brought together yoga, ancestral healing techniques and mindful practices. Its listed address is now on Motzstraße in Berlin’s Schöneberg district, giving travelers a practical city reference point alongside the organization’s Caribbean-coast roots. Retreats are paid, with prices starting at USD 2,199, and the listed amenities include a yoga studio, pool, fitness center and restaurant. Dietary options range from vegan and vegetarian to meals with meat, with several allergy-conscious choices. The exact program and setting can vary, so contact the team before booking to confirm where a particular retreat takes place and what it includes.
