MISSION: FOSTERING AUTHENTIC BONDS WITH NATURE AS A BACKDROP
Go Beyond Retreats was founded on the belief that to bond with ourselves and others we need to change our environment and get back to the basics. Using nature as a backdrop we will reconnect and recharge as well as create awareness and inspire creativity. The focus of our retreats is nature and wellness with fun and camaraderie. We use our time to connect and to get moving. We seek to instill an appreciation for our surroundings, others and the process of realigning the team’s compass.
Tammy Mayle, Founder
Tammy was previously the Director of Programs for Fit Kids, a Bay Area non-profit that promotes a healthy, active lifestyle among children in underserved communities. Prior to that she co-founded and ran a large-scale boys and girls lacrosse club in the Bay Area for 10 years. As Operations & Events Manager for ADVNC Lacrosse she organized events and managed travel and logistics for coaches, players and families. She was also an academic and physical education teacher for over 10 years.
Through these experiences she developed a passion for team-building through sports and outdoor activities. She was able to foster and harness a sense of teamwork among many groups using the context of sports, healthy lifestyles and outdoors activities. This inspired her “a-ha” moment to create Go Beyond Retreats, which offers a variety of wellness retreats that combine nature, mindfulness and fun while fostering strong, authentic bonds between people who work together.
