  • Coming to a retreat on your own can be a beautiful experience, especially if this is your first time. You get to meet new people and be part of a community of like minded individuals.

    You can share a room with someone else who’s coming alone, or if you prefer your own space to enjoy quite time, you can do that also. What ever feels best for you, we can do our best to accommodate.

  • Many people feel intimidated when they see yoga and meditation on the agenda. I encourage everyone to consider joining, regardless of your experience or ability.

    Yoga and meditation are somatic tools used in helping facilitate self-discover, relaxation and calm and as a way to learn how to regulate the nervous system.

    As an experienced teachers, we always provide plenty of options and adjustments to suite your needs and abilities.

    We encourage you to simply keep an open mind and an open heart for the experience.

  • Closer to the retreat date, a full list of items to bring will be provided. Typically a yoga mat and any yoga props like blocks, bolsters or cushions and blankets are encouraged.

    Its also always best to be prepared for all weather.
