A Breathwork & Cold Immersion Retreat on Cape Cod

Plunge & Presence Retreat

In a world that rarely slows down, stillness can feel like a luxury. At Plunge & Presence, it becomes a practice. 

This immersive Cape Cod wellness retreat invites you to step away from the noise and into something more grounded — where breath, cold immersion, mindful movement, and community create space to reset your nervous system and reconnect with yourself. 

Guiding this experience is yoga pro Jenya Nesterova and breathwork and meditation coach Michael Christoforo, whose work was recently featured in Modern Luxury. In the article, Michael describes breath as “the eye of a hurricane” — a steady center you can return to, even when life feels overwhelming. It’s a simple but powerful philosophy that will help to shape the entire retreat weekend. 

Trained in the Wim Hof Method, Oxygen Advantage, and XPT, Michael integrates breathwork, cold exposure, and heat therapy to build resilience from the inside out. His approach isn’t about pushing limits for performance — it’s about learning how to regulate your body and mind so you can move through stress with more clarity and calm. 

Jenya is a is a 500-hour certified Ashtanga-Vinyasa yoga teacher who began her yoga journey in 2018 to heal back pain and find balance through asana. Her teaching honors the lineage and transformative power of the practice, which will help deepen the practice  for all retreat attendees. 

At Plunge & Presence (March 20–22, 2026) at Ocean Edge Resort, you’ll experience: 

  • • Guided breathwork sessions to regulate and reset 

  • • Ocean cold plunges designed to build resilience 

  • • Sauna and heat integration 

  • • Yoga and mindful movement 

  • • Reiki and restorative practices 

  • • A floating sound bath session 

  • • Healthy, gourmet meals 

  • • Time to explore the beauty of Brewster Bay

     

A day at the retreat feels like a deep exhale. Structured sessions are balanced with time to walk the beach, reflect, and simply be. The setting — coastal, expansive, restorative — becomes part of the experience itself. 

Whether you’re new to yoga and breathwork or ready to deepen your practice, Plunge & Presence is designed for all fitness levels and walks of life. You don’t need experience — just a willingness to try. 

If you’ve felt that quiet pull toward something different — something that challenges and steadies you at the same time — this might be your invitation.
