"The yoga and hiking retreat was a deeply restorative experience. Argentina planned each day with the perfect rhythm of activity and rest, scheduled offerings and free time. The mountaintop setting was gorgeous, secluded, and comfortable. It was the perfect reset!"

"Argentina is a seasoned, highly skilled professional yogi in every way. Her calm demeanor was so welcoming. She made sure that our experience was complete by providing all essentials necessary to perform yoga. There was always excellent food choices, snacks, beverages. The retreat was organized, clean, beautiful views. It allowed time to visit others and to renergize and relax. I will join her retreats in the future."

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

  • You crave relaxation and connection in a quiet, supportive space
  • You’re new to retreats and want a gentle, welcoming entry

  • You want one-on-one attention in your yoga and meditation practice
  • You’re seeking a meaningful getaway to reconnect with yourself and others

THE FULL SCOOP...

In a world that rarely slows down, this intimate weekend retreat offers something increasingly rare: space — to breathe, to feel, to soften, and to come back to yourself.

Set in the tranquil countryside of Western North Carolina, this retreat invites you to find rhythm and relaxation.

You’ll spend three unhurried nights in a cozy two-bedroom cabin, surrounded by the quiet beauty of nature — a perfect backdrop for rest and reconnection.

Guided by Argentina Rosado Yoga you’ll get personalized attention and gentle support every step of the way. Mornings begin with intentional yoga and meditation sessions tailored to your body, energy, and needs — not one-size-fits-all classes, but thoughtful practices designed to meet you exactly where you are.

The days unfold at a relaxed, more casual pace, with group hikes through nearby trails that encourage grounding, presence, and conversation. 

In the evenings, you’ll enjoy dinner outings to thoughtfully chosen local restaurants, where connection continues over nourishing food. On Sunday night, settle into the comfort of the cabin for a cozy, family-style supper — a grounding way to close the weekend.

This is a space for just two guests — come solo and connect with a fellow traveler on a similar path, or bring a close friend or loved one to share the experience. With a rhythm that weaves together movement, stillness, nature, and shared meals, you’ll return home feeling nourished, grounded, and deeply restored.

THE CABIN

Your home for the weekend is a charming 2-bedroom cabin nestled in the peaceful hills of Rutherfordton, North Carolina, located an hour drive East of Asheville, and an hour drive West of Charlotte, NC. With a blend of rustic character and modern touches, this cozy little cabin is the perfect balance of comfort, simplicity, and charm.

The cabin features wood-beamed ceilings, cozy furnishings, and country-style details that create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. 

Located just a short 8-minute drive from the Tryon International Equestrian Center, this area blends elegance and rural simplicity. You’ll be in the countryside — private and peaceful, yet within reach of charming small towns, scenic hiking trails, and award-winning wineries.

It’s not just a place to stay — it’s a space to unwind, reset, and feel held.

I loved everything about the Spring Awakening Retreat in Panama with Brenda and Argentina—the varied, thoughtfully planned, and deep-digging yoga practices, the perfectly appointed Istmo Retreat Center, and most of all the sense of community instilled among the brilliant women on the retreat. 

Margaret-Ellen

GUEST, PANAMA RETREAT

“The Spring Awakening Panama retreat was my first yoga retreat, and I couldn’t have picked a better one. The inclusive atmosphere, flexible schedule (lots of yoga, fun outings and activities, free time to rest, go to the beach, and relax), experience of a few different areas within Panama, and quickly-formed community of awesome yogis was an unforgettable experience. I loved the wide range of yoga classes (headstand workshop to vigorous flows, to yoga nidra and restorative), and the whole experience at Istmo retreat center was exactly what I was hoping for. Thank you, Brenda and Argentina, can’t wait for the next one!”

PANAMA, 2019

“I think that this retreat helped to deepen my personal relationship with yoga and I really appreciated that opportunity. I feel I was able to spend enough time by myself to relax and focus on my personal experience, while also getting to feel like I was surrounded by other wonderful yogis. I like the diversity of people who attended and that none were stereotypical yogis.”

YOUR HOST

Hey, I’m Argentina

I started practicing yoga and meditation when I was in high school. I was stressed, overwhelmed, and highly anxious due to the many changes that were happening in my life at the time.

I was a teenager back then, and yoga became my sanctuary. It changed the way I handled everything that was going on. It changed my life. I practiced at home because I was too anxious to go to a group class. And actually, when I practiced, I used to put up a sign on my bedroom door that said “do not disturb.” Geeky, I know. But that’s how serious I was. Now I’m a full-time instructor and coach with a mission to share this powerful, healing practice with as many people as I can. 

Come join me!

Wait, you probably want to know about my qualifications and stuff. Right? So here you go.

I’m a 500-hour “Yoga Alliance-School” Certified teacher, and I’ve been teaching yoga and meditation for 7+ years. My “specialties” are breath-work, meditation, and Yoga Nidra to help students manage chronic anxiety and stress. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Medical Technology, and a Masters degree in Business Strategy and Leadership. Before I became a yoga teacher, I worked in the pharmaceutical industry where I helped manage clinical trials for new drug development.
