Who it's for

Come as you are.

Guests typically range from their mid-20s to early 50s, and every adult is welcome. What matters is the mindset: openness to connection, rest, growth and a little adventure.

  • Solo travelers

    Most guests join solo, and you're welcomed into a warm, inclusive group from day one.

  • Couples & friends

    Come with a partner, friend or family member, in a shared or private room.

  • Every fitness level

    Connection and presence, not performance. Everything is optional, with no pressure to keep up.

  • Bodies with a story

    Injuries can usually be accommodated. Share them in advance and sessions are adapted for you.

  • Groups & teams

    Families, friends and corporate teams can book a fully custom retreat.

  • Instructors & leaders

    Bring your community and we handle the planning and logistics.

What's included

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Salim's credentials

Meet the founder

Movement with meaning.

Salim Heyaime · Founder, retreat host & coach

Portrait of Salim Heyaime, founder of Santosh Retreats, arms crossed in a black T-shirt against a warm yellow backdrop.

Salim Heyaime began his career as a civil engineer in the Dominican Republic, working on public infrastructure and development projects. He was never the athletic type. In his mid-30s, personal challenges showed him how deeply movement, nutrition and mindset are connected, and that changed the direction of his life.1

Roughly nine years of training himself and coaching others later, he helps people in Utah and around the world through online coaching, and he wrote A Challenge to Move: Your 22-Day Roadmap to Move Better and Feel Better.1 Santosh Retreats grew out of the same belief: healing happens when we slow down, reconnect and remember who we are.

"Nothing I do is cookie-cutter."Salim Heyaime, Voyage Utah1
