A little about Playa Zipolite, The Beach of the Dead . . .

Playa Zipolite, Oaxaca, Southern Mexico, on the Pacific Ocean. A little bit about my favorite little get-away on this small world of ours.

Zipolite, a sweaty 30-minute walk west from Puerto Angel, brings you to Playa Zipolite and another world. The feeling here is 1970's - Led Zep, Marley, and scruffy gringos.

A long, long time ago, Zipolite beach was usually visited by the Zapotecans...who made it a magical place. They came to visit Zipolite to meditate, or just to rest.

Recently, this beach has begun to receive day-trippers from Puerto Angel and Puerto Escondido, giving it a more TOURISTY feel than before.

Most people come here for the novelty of the nude beach, yoga, turtles, seafood, surf, meditation, vegetarians, discos, party, to get burnt by the sun, or to see how long they can stretch their skinny budget.

I post WWW Oaxaca, Mexico, Zipolite and areas nearby information. Also general budget, backpacker, surfer, off the beaten path, Mexico and beyond, information.

REMEMBER: Everyone is welcome at Zipolite.

Yoga with Beach View: Mazunte, Oaxaca, Mexico Yoga Retreat ... Agama Yoga Mexico offers 2 hour Yoga Drop-in classes and short Yoga courses between Mazunte & San Agustinillo Beach, Oaxaca. Meditative, relaxing, low ... agamayogamexico.com/yoga/daily-drop-in-classes/


Drop-in Classes

Although at Agama Yoga we specialize in our 1 month long Hatha, Kundalini and Tantra Yoga Immersion or Intensive, we understand that not everyone has a whole month available to them. As we wish to avoid excluding anyone who has a desire to learn and practice Yoga with us, we also encourage you to drop in to our retreat program for as long as you wish, whether that is only one day, several weeks, or to complete the full First Level Intensive.  Also for local tourists, a day at the beach can be made even better with a bit of Yoga practice in between.  Bring your partner or family or take some free time from them as you re-charge with a bit of Yoga, Meditation, stretching and relaxation.   Our meditative, low impact style is perfect for all all ages and levels and the two hours pass by exceptionally quickly leaving you light and rejuvenated.
With our drop-in Yoga program, you can take part in as many of our First Level Yoga Intensive classes as fit your schedule. We hold Agama Hatha Yoga classes from Monday to Friday at the following times:
8:30-10:30 Asana of the Day Introduction and Hatha Yoga with extended Final Relaxation
4:00-6:00 Sun Salutations, Hatha Yoga, Music Meditation and extended Final Relaxation
6:30-8:00 Yoga Theoretical, Practials and Philosophical Evening Lecture
Additional Special Events, mostly free for students are held throughout the week.
One full day is 200 MXN including the evening talk (and Wi-Fi), while single 2 hour Hatha Yoga Classes are 100 MXN. One’s first week of Agama Yoga (upto 28 hours) is 800 MXN, and the entire Agama Hatha, Kundalini & Tantra Yoga  course is 4600 MXN (10% discount if paid up front in full, 4140 MXN).  And remember the first day is always free.  Note that in the first 3.5 days of our course, the physical practice is much shortened and the theoretical and philosophical explaination and unfolding emphasized in the morning and afternoon Hatha Yoga class.  If you catch one of these Yoga class days and find it slow, don’t worry, the pace picks up quickly.
Local Resident discount = 50 pesos per Yoga class
We will supply blankets, Yoga mats and bottled water.  Please come on a light stomach.  We can be found easily on the main road at its most inclined point between San Agustinillo Beach and El Centro de las Tortugas.  See you in Mazunte.
