Metta Yoga Retreat
September 29 – October 4 ,2024
Reset, renew, and nourish yourself this Fall on the beautiful Maui North Shore. Lumeria is a tropical jewel set on 5.6 acres of private high-country land offering beautiful views of the north shore and central valley. Lumeria Maui is located between the famous historic plantation towns of Paia and Makawao, with easy access to the best beaches and surf breaks on Maui’s north shore as well as a plethora of offsite adventures such as waterfall and bamboo forest hikes, sparkling beaches, snorkeling, kayaking, SUP, and surfing.
You will start each morning with an invigorating and grounding yoga flow. The days are intentionally designed with ease to allow you to lounge poolside with a good book, indulge in spa treatments, explore the island on your own, or join our yoga teachers on planned excursions to our favorite beaches and guided hikes. Late afternoon gentle flow, yin, or restorative yoga classes will be offered daily to ease into the evening.
Morning coffee, fruit and snacks will be out daily before yoga. Following yoga, you will enjoy a daily hot breakfast complete with locally made grains, granola, and bread. Celebrated chefs will prepare seasonal, farm-to-table, and coursed dinners nightly for us to enjoy together.
This will be a week filled with tropical energy, laughter, adventure, and connection. You will grow your yoga practice, show yourself care and love, and live aloha. Return home renewed, reset, and refreshed!

Melody is an extraordinary yoga teacher, who conveys her great knowledge of yoga asanas—from physical mechanics to spiritual upliftment—with a blend of graciousness, authority, and fun.
One of Melody’s greatest strengths is the purity of her transmission of Yoga. She has very little egotism to block the clear flow of inspiration she shares. Her inner life is committed and deep, and she’s able to help students experience that depth in their yoga practice.
Melody has been practicing the teachings of yoga since the age of 14, and began teaching at age 17. She is a Certified Ananda Yoga Therapist (C-IAYT), and teaches therapeutic yoga for private sessions and groups. Melody loves leading Ananda’s Restorative Yoga Teacher Training in-person at The Expanding Light Retreat three times per year.

Co-host from Maui: Annapurna Delyle
Practitioner of Ayurveda Medicine, AWP, Massage Therapist, LMT; Ananda Yoga ® and Meditation Teacher E-RYT 500.
For Annapurna, living in Maui is a blessing. Annapurna Darcy Delyle has been practicing meditation for over 40 years and yoga for over 30 years. She began her meditation practice at the age of 15. After living in Maui for three years, Annapurna has much to share. She is volunteering to help the people of Maui Strong, who lost their city of Lahaina. She is learning the Hawaiian ways of living in harmony with nature and Ohana.
Ayurveda chose Annapurna. It became a practice mostly after she began teaching yoga in 2007. Annapurna has trained in classical Ayurveda with Indian Vaidyas, at Kerala Ayurveda Academy, in Milpitas, and in Kerala India. She will be offering pre-scheduled appointments for our guests to receive treatments. She has an online practice from Maui, helping people find their balance through diet, herbs, PanchaKarma, yoga, and meditation. Learn more at her Ayurveda website.
Annapurna has been practicing massage for over 30 years now. Her mother was also a practitioner, giving her the healing transformation that allowed her to intuit how to work with people. Her warm and nurturing presence can be felt as she stands tall and graceful.
Annapurna has traveled the world and has lived in many wonderful places, such as Alaska, Hawaii, California, where she was born and raised, and even Atlanta, Georgia. Her first time on a SUP was a pleasant surprise to learn how the whales migrate here yearly and how much joy they bring to spending time on the ocean with them and the other living beings.
