bio

Hi, My name is Allix.
A Venezuelan Warrior.
And I would love to share a bit of my story with you.

For over a decade, I’ve devoted myself to the study of yoga, health and fitness, traveling the world to train and expand my understanding of what it means to truly live in alignment—body, mind, and spirit. My path has evolved from physical discipline to a more holistic, heart-centered way of being, and I’m passionate about sharing that with you during our trip.

Planning this retreat is a dream come true for me.
For 13 years, I’ve been guiding people through their yoga journeys, witnessing the transformation that happens when we come home to ourselves through movement, breath, and presence. I’ve always had a deep love for travel—exploring new cultures, connecting with locals, and immersing myself in the beauty and rhythm of different ways of life.

I’m beyond excited to invite you to join me for a soul-nourishing retreat in one of the most magical places on Earth—Cusco and the Sacred Valley of Peru.
Where I used to live for years.

This is a journey close to my heart, blending adventure, deep practice, and the power of human connection.

I’ve always loved adventure, and I believe in the magic that happens when people come together in sacred places. There’s something indescribable about the energy of the Andes—the way the mountains hold you, the wisdom in the land, the vibrant culture of Cusco, and the peace that radiates through the Sacred Valley.

This retreat is an offering—from my heart to yours.
A space to breathe, move, explore, and remember.
A space to build community, share stories, and be reminded of the beauty of simply being human.

Can’t wait to walk this path with you.

Peru > Sacred Flow: A Journey Through the Heart of Peru with Allix

Trading city noise for the pulse of ancient mountains, this journey invites you to sync your breath with the Sacred Valley’s rhythm and let adventure become your meditation. Feel the energy of centuries-old Inca sites, paddle across glassy lagoons, and stretch into sunrise as the Andes wake around you. Here, wellness isn’t just a practice – it’s woven into every hike, every market visit, every shared meal with local communities. For those who crave connection – within and beyond – this week blends yoga, culture, and adrenaline into an experience that’s as transformative as it is unforgettable.
