Chrysalis with Mara Hoffman & Annie Parr
December 9-13, 2026
El Campo | Baja California Sur, Mexico
Join Mara and Annie
A retreat for people navigating transition or longing to retreat. Together, Annie & Mara offer a dynamic experience blending creative movement and reflective practice - meditation, writing, conversation, and play - to help you shed what no longer fits and step more fully into who you're becoming.
Daily, you will move between body and mind, structure and openness, effort and surrender. There is space to listen inward, to speak what feels true, and to reimagine what comes next — with an approach that is intuitive and honest, creating the conditions for real clarity to emerge.
A space to explore new iterations of self, expand creative expression, and deepen self-love in a way that feels lived rather than conceptual.
Annie’s work is a powerful entry point into the body. Her movement practice blends somatic awareness, strength, rhythm, and emotional release. It centers presence over performance or perfection. Through guided sequences, music, and intuitive exploration, she creates a space where the body becomes a site of truth, expression, and freedom. People often find themselves moving through stuck energy, reconnecting to instinct, and returning to a more honest relationship with themselves.
Mara brings a complementary container that holds the internal and creative process with care and depth. Drawing from decades of building, evolving, and ultimately completing a brand, alongside years of personal practice rooted in meditation, ritual, and reflection, she offers guidance through transition. Her work invites you to examine identity, soften the inner voice, and explore what it means to let go and begin again.

Outdoor terraces, shaded patios, and a hot-tub soaking pool invite rest, reflection, and connection beneath the Baja sun and stars.
The Mill features shared or individual bedrooms, each with a private sink and access to nearby shower rooms and toilets—private stalls with doors for changing and comfort.

LOCATION
El Campo is a creative retreat space overlooking the Pacific and farmlands of Playa Pescadero, just 10 minutes south of Todos Santos and 50 minutes north of Cabo San Lucas.
Founded in 2023 by Annie herself, it’s a sanctuary for art, movement, and slow living—where beauty, creativity, and rest converge.
KIND WORDS
Spending time at El Campo with Annie Parr was nothing short of transformative. The space itself is a sanctuary—intentionally designed, rooted in nature, and humming with creative energy. But it’s Annie’s presence that truly sets it apart. Her mastery of movement and deep intuitive wisdom created a container for both expansion and restoration. I arrived seeking space to breathe; I left with a sense of alignment I didn’t know I was missing. El Campo isn’t just a retreat space—it’s a return to self.
-Nicole Oge
The movement practice built on itself and centered the whole experience. I left feeling fully reset, inspired and whole and I hope to return on an annual basis. I can't recommend it more highly!
- Lisa Lombardi
Annie’s movement vocabulary was gentle, awakening, and challenging in the best ways. Her classes got into all the nooks and crannies of where my body had been stagnant and neglected for so long. It was eye opening. It really was the new beginning I needed to assist my body to heal and trust movement as the way through. She also did an incredible job of facilitating connection with the other participants who were strangers to me. It was fun, joyful, and connective.
- Rande Dorn
Waking up to the beauty of El Campo and starting the day with one of Annie’s classes was pure magic. As someone who doesn’t consider themselves a dancer, I felt totally at ease—and even in love—with the mix of movement, meditation, dance, and whatever other Annie alchemy is happening. Her classes create a real shift in body, mind, and spirit. And the music? Truly next level. It’s an experience that stays with you long after it ends.
- Robyn Shapiro
Annie is an incredible host and one of the best movement practitioners I've ever worked with. Her classes truly light people up and shift their energy immediately.
