What is Garúa

ga·rú·a noun — a fine, steady drizzle. Soft, constant, everywhere.

We are a community of women from all over the world who travel to move together. We hike to alpine lakes, roll out mats on the meadow and end the day around one long table. Come as you are and leave with friends from everywhere.

  • Community

    Women from many countries in one group chat. Come solo, leave with a crew.

  • Movement

    Pilates woven into every getaway, plus hikes, surf and long stretches.

  • Adventure

    Trails, lakes, waves and studios. Places that ask a little of you and give back a lot.

Getaways + Pilates

Pilates with a view

Pilates is the thread through every Garúa getaway. Guided mat sessions in the open air, mountains all around, then we lace up our boots and go.

  1. Mat pilates on a meadow below forested mountains
    Morning

    We start on the grass before the trail, with the valley still waking up.

  2. Women in a plank variation on mats outside a chalet
    Strength

    Strong for the climb

    Core, glutes and balance. The work that carries you uphill.

  3. Black and white film photo of a pilates class in front of a wooden chalet

  4. Women resting on towels in a green valley
    Recovery

    Rest is part of it

    Long stretches, sun on your face and nowhere else to be.
