Bikini Bootcamp story

Set at Amansala (sanskrit for ‘peaceful waters’)

Hotel in Tulum Mexico, Bikini Bootcamp has been connecting like-minded travellers through mindfulness and movement since 2001.

Let our team take you away from the routine and stresses of everyday life and surround you with an expert team with one goal: to help you achieve life-changing health and fitness results.

We promise to send you back feeling better than when you arrived, with a glow lasting long after your sun tan has faded.

Devastated by 9/11, owner and founder Melissa Perlman poured her energy into volunteering. Eventually, burned out from the New York City lifestyle, she wanted to leave the city and start something fresh.

After 9/11, like many people Melissa asked herself, "If I could. live anywhere in the world, where would it be?" She immediately knew the answer, the white sandy beaches of Tulum, just a few hour’s flights from the hectic New York lifestyle she had been living.

She envisioned creating a place where people could come to reconnect to themselves and nature through a combination of fitness, time in nature, pampering, healthy food, and being around like-minded people. That place is Amansala and started with 4 cabanas and has now grown into nearly 100. Thousands of people have found their home away from home here and continues to evolve. Melissa has stayed very active in the business and it shows.....

It shows in the staff that has been there for over a decade, some since the early days.

It shows in the classes, as they are based on her original Bikini Bootcamp recipe.

It shows in the clientele; some have been coming for 20 years.

It shows in all the details that make this your ultimate wellness vacation.

She followed her dreams and created a safe space for women to travel alone and leave feeling better than when they arrived.

She created a business,

She created a family

She created a wellness empire in paradise
