flow arts gathering
in tropical paradise

We’re super happy to announce the 3rd edition of GuateFlow! Last year was again an amazing success, and we’re really proud of how everything is evolving. This year, there will be a 3rd deck where we can organize workshops, so we can even grow a little bit to accommodate more people.

Guatemala has its high season in February, as the weather is amazing around this time of the year.
In February it will be the dry season, so probably there won’t be any rain, and day temperatures average between 75°F / 23°C and 83°F / 28°C during the day. At nighttime, temperatures will go down to around 59 °F / 15 °C making it comfortable to sleep.
Get your perfect tropical winter escape, if you’re coming from the northern hemisphere! Our epic-view training space at Eagle’s Nest has a roof, so we’re out of the full sun, also we’ll have two other shaded training decks, including the yoga shala at Starry Mountain.

Acatenango & Fuego Volcano Hike

Optional post-retreat Acatenango & Fuego Volcano Hike
Join us for a guided overnight volcano hike to one of the most spectacular volcanoes on the planet – or in fact two, Acatenango and Fuego! The two volcanoes sit next to each other. Acatenango is a perfect observation spot to see Fuego, which erupts every few minutes and offers a real fire show. If weather permits, we can also hike on the side of Fuego and watch eruptions from even closer distance.

We will leave San Marcos in the early morning of the 27th and first visit Antigua where we’ll be briefed, get additional hiking clothes (in case you need to borrow a jacket for instance) and get into our shuttle to the trailhead. We’ll spend the night in a camp near the top of Acatenango. Tents, mats, sleeping bags and food will be provided. Just before the sunrise, we will hike to the top of Acatenango and watch an incredible sunrise.

After getting down and arriving back to Antigua we will have a few hours to explore this historical city before getting on our shuttle back to San Marcos. You may also opt to use this opportunity of getting to Antigua and stay there after the hike (the Guatemala City airport is an hour away from Antigua (depends on traffic). The price of this is around 60$ including the transportation from San Marcos and back. Please mind that the possibility of this climb is a subject to weather conditions (but weather is generally good in this time of a year).

He is spinning with Single Staff, Double Staff, Poi, Fire Fans, and Dragon Staff and also gives performances with Fire Eating and Sword.
Within his teachings and performances he’s combining elements of dance, flexibility, strength conditioning, martial arts, and yoga. Blending all these things together has given Luke a very unique way of bringing his skills and expressions of self to the world in a very holistic way.

Completing his yoga teacher training in 2016 Luke has taken his adventure from Australia to across the world, and toured through Europe and the UK. Now based in the Netherlands he continues his path as a performer and teacher with his group ‘Luminosity’ while also collaborating with groups such as Lumino, Lights in Motion, and Super Cho.

“I really look forward to giving yoga and meditation sessions within this retreat, along with Double Staff workshops. I think with the combined knowledge I have acquired over the years, I will be able to bring a fun and beneficial experience to all. Catering towards flow artists and dancers I will explore different yoga techniques, dynamic/static stretching, flexibility, and strength and conditioning for all levels”.

VOJTA’S TOUR-GUIDE

From Vojta: Since I explored Guatemala in 2017, I always dreamt of organizing a retreat at the Atitlán lake. The combination of numerous active volcanoes, tropical nature and mountainous landscape gives this place a truly unique feeling. This video is partially shot in Guatemala and Costa Rica (majority of beach shots are from Costa Rica and all the volcano shots, waterfalls, and Mayan ruins are from Guatemala)

I’m happy to share my experience from this beautiful country – from the volcanoes of Atitlán to the beautiful colonial architecture of Antigua, millenniums-old Mayan ruins or incredible waterfalls and cascades of Semuc Champey.

Atitlán lake 

is the deepest lake in Central America, with water that is clean and perfectly suitable for swimming. The culture of the towns and villages surrounding Lake Atitlán is influenced by the Maya people. Lake Atitlán is renowned as one of the most beautiful lakes in the world, and is one of Guatemala’s most important national and international tourist attractions. In literature, it is often called “the most beautiful lake in the world”. It won’t look so far-fetched once you see it! The area around San Marcos (where the retreat takes place) has particularly tall cliffs abutting the lake and in recent years has become renowned for cliff diving. Despite that, there are many small beaches offering comfortable access to the water.

Surrounding the lake caldera, there are three volcanoes. Volcán Atitlán lies on the southern rim of the caldera, while Volcán San Pedro and Volcán Tolimán lie within the caldera. San Pedro is the oldest of the three and seems to have stopped erupting about 40,000 years ago. Tolimán began growing after San Pedro stopped erupting and probably remains active, although it has not erupted in historic times. Atitlán has developed almost entirely in the last 10,000 years and remains active, its most recent eruption having occurred in 1853.
If you wish to observe an active volcano doing its things, then we recommend visiting volcan Fuego or Pacaya, that are nearby.

Pacaya is an active volcano, which rises to an elevation of 2,552 meters (8,373 ft). After being dormant for over 70 years, it began erupting vigorously in 1961 and has been erupting frequently since then. Much of its activity is Strombolian – which is a rare type of frequent activity, perhaps the most interesting one, as it almost guarantees you to see lava. It’s not a coincidence that we organize a retreat in Stromboli and Guatemala 😉

Have you ever seen lava? If not, you might be really interested to see it. If you have seen it, you are probably interested even more.

Climbing Pacaya is relatively easy and suitable for almost everyone. The full hike can be easily done in half a day. The reward isn’t only seeing lava and the top of Pacaya, but also an amazing view of all the other surrounding volcanoes, as shown in the picture of the dude with poi (Vojta)

Antigua is an ancient city (originating in 1524) in the central highlands of Guatemala known for its preserved Spanish Baroque-influenced architecture as well as a number of ruins of colonial churches. It served as the capital of the Kingdom of Guatemala. It has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

It is surrounded by three majestic volcanoes – Volcan de Agua, Volcan de Acatenango, and the most impressive one, Volcan de Fuego.

A volcano worth seeing – even from a distance – that is Volcan de Fuego. As the name tells, this is a furious one – it is famous for being almost constantly active, with small gas and ash eruptions occur every 15 to 20 minutes.
The best view is available from Volcan de Acatenang – a neighboring volcano with a similar height to that of Fuego. If you are into volcanoes and hikes, this is the right choice for you. However, this quite a challenging one, requiring certain equipment, and time to hike.
If you are interested, let us know, as we are probably going to climb this volcano before or after the retreat too 😉

Tikal, perhaps the most amazing Mayan ruins

A bit further from the Atitlán lake, there lays the ancient Mayan city of Tikal. It can be easily reached by an overnight bus to “Flores” – a city on a little island on a beautiful lake, which is the starting point of all Tikal expeditions. This Mayan city is definitely worth visiting. I’ve been to many Mayan sights in Guatemala and Mexico, but this is perhaps the most amazing one. I recommend going there early and spending a whole day. It’s not a bad idea to pay for a tour guide (which isn’t expensive) as the stories that come with each of the numerous pyramids or ruin in the city add another dimension to your experience.

The Cascades of Semuc Champey

Located in the middle of a tropical national park, surrounded by traditional villages and steep mountains of mid-land Guatemala, Semuc Champey offers perhaps to most tropical experience I can imagine in this country.
It’s not only this tropical paradise by a wild river but also the whole experience of getting there and seeing the local life. I remember walking in a random village near this place, observing some local religious ceremonies, eating in a small restaurant that perhaps wasn’t even a restaurant and staying in a little cabin just next to the river with a lot of fireflies all around!

It does take some time to get there, but it is worth it! It’s good to combine this trip with visiting Tikal – perhaps on your way back from Tikal to Guatemala city.

I hope you’ve enjoyed my little story about all the amazing spots to visit in Guatemala. I look forward meeting you soon, so we can climb a volcano together!

details guateflow gathering

The location of Starry Mountain is; Barrio 2 San marcos la laguna, 07010, Guatemala

Most of the attendees will stay here, and with the neighbors. It’s about a 5-minute walk to Eagles Nest, where part of the workshops will be given.

The location of Eagle’s Nest Atitlán is; Lake Atitlán, San Marcos La Laguna, Guatemala

https://eaglesnestatitlan.com

Most of the workshops will be given here. It’s about a 5-minute walk to Starry Mountain, where some workshops will be given, and many attendants will stay.

All classes are open to all levels, also total newbies!
POI CLASSES: There will be two different workshops, for the different levels of Poi Spinners. Choose your level; Beginner or Intermediate and above
– Beginners classes from 9:00 to 11:00
– Classes for Intermediate and above from 11:00 to 13:00. We won’t only focus on tricks, so even if you aren’t familiar with some poi moves yet, you will still benefit from the body movement workshops. And you will be taught the moves you miss.
Workshops will be held in a group and also individually (for some moves we might make small groups depending on the skill level and your interests). To benefit the most from this retreat, be sure to know the basic poi moves, such as: 3-beat weaves (forward & backward) windmill, watermill, hip-reels & turns, butterfly (same-time, split-time), buzzsaw.

If you can’t do some of the moves listed above, don’t worry! We will teach you that. However, if you want to be prepared, look up some tutorials (such as those on Playpoi.com – those are great!)

BEGINNERS OR TOTAL NEWBIES
We don’t have any minimum requirements to join any of our retreats. For every trick, there will be beginner and advanced variations. We always work with groups of hugely varying levels, and the lesson material will go on as planned, even if not everybody gets the trick. There will be recaps of every class on the retreat, so you can continue to practice at home 😉

You will be faster to pick up the lesson material if you have a bigger knowledge base. But it’s not necessary, and a retreat is a great opportunity to try out new props, and to get inspired. Because we offer workshops for many different props, there are always people who want to try a prop they never touched before. So you definitely won’t be the only one to try out new things 😉 We’ve all started somewhere, and the flow community has always been super amazing and helping, in my experience.

Prices range for the full event from $ 470 p.p. for a Workshop-Only ticket to $ 1170 with accommodation and breakfast included at Starry Mountain.

  • EAGLE’S NEST: 3 meals per day are included in the ticket price
  • STARRY MOUNTAIN +: Lunch is included in your ticket at Eagle’s Nest. Free coffee is included from breakfast till lunch 😉
    For breakfast, you can order what you want in the Starry Mountain cafe, or prepare your own breakfast.
    For the dinners, you can decide per day. We’ll go to different venus to do fire spinning for example, so you could have dinner there. There are many amazing restaurants in town. Also there are evenings where we’ll stay in Starry Mountain, and there will be meals prepared which you can decide to buy for around $ 6. On the evenings where we have program elsewhere, if you’re not feeling to go out, you can prepare your dinner in the communal Starry Mountain kitchen.DRINKING WATER is freely available at Eagle’s Nest and Starry Mountain+. They have water filters, as we don’t reccomend drinking the tap water!
