Serita Colette will be leading a once in a lifetime retreat in Troncones, Mexico on Rest & Liberation. We will be studying yogic practices of liberation through the Hatha Yoga tradition, and the power of Nidra to open to ourselves beyond limiting ideas of self to unfold into our deepest desires.
Present Moment Retreat will be our beautiful home for a week. Known for its picturesque landscape, Troncones is a quiet beach village located about 20 miles northwest of Zihuatanejo on the coast of Guerrero, México.
Immerse oneself in the sacred ocean around the full moon, evening sangha around a bonfire, time for massage, fresh smoothies, beach play, peace and reflection.

Your Leader
Serita Colette
Serita believes adamantly in the work of healing justice; “that we begin to value care, emotional labor and resilience, not as add-ons, but as central components of sustainability that restore us to life,” (Prentis Hemphill, BLM). Through teaching yoga, ayurveda and liberation practices Serita has emboldened many of her students to bring forth their vision and power with love and gratitude for all that is sacred. It is through Serita’s sustainable practices for deeper awakening that we are healing ourselves, and each other, “a practice of freedom!” -bell hooks.

Your Boutique Bungalow
Present Moment is the perfect antidote to the chaos of everyday life. Authenticity was imperative in the construction of every inch of this resort. Thus, all bungalows have an indigenous palapa thatched roof, hand-crafted in the Mexican tradition, and are furnished with a pillow top queen-sized bed, luxurious 400 count cotton bedding and a canopy of white linen.
With 5 deluxe bungalows and 3 family bungalows, somewhat blurring the lines between the indoors and out, with its amazing vantage points to the sea, gardens and pool, your accommodation will be the perfect place to rest yourself after a full day of yoga and surf at Present Moment. Just a 30 second walk the beach, let the sounds of the ocean lure you to sleep each night.
With 3 air conditioned suites, for those seeking a little more similarity to the comforts of home. Centrally located, you will be just steps away from the beach, amazing yoga classes, massage, and fine dining. If you enjoy strolling the shore at sunrise, these stunning bungalows will have you on your way in no time. Hand-crafted and beautifully appointed, a true home away from home.
About Troncones & Getting Here
At the heart of charming Troncones Beach, nestled between the lush mountains of the Sierra Madre and the sparkling Mexican Riviera, Present Moment Retreat combines the ambience of nature’s grandeur with personally challenging mind-body work, set in harmony on beautifully-landscaped tropical grounds.
Troncones Beach is a small, recently-developed community situated on some 3 miles of pristine Pacific beach – a strand of white sand punctuated by occasional rock outcroppings often harboring tidepools teeming with fascinating saltwater life. The charming village is home to a small school, a public library (donated by generous local residents for education of the village’s children), a church, several dry goods outlets and a few other small provisioning services for essential items. All of these are couched within a traditional and tropical Mexican ambience.

Troncones Beach is highly connected, yet still a world apart. Its proximity to Ixtapa and Zihuatanejo affords you a full choice of shopping conveniences and recreational possibilities, all just a short distance from your world-class yoga retreat and resort.
