This weekend retreat is a dedicated time for you to reroute and ground in goodness. Life can feel overwhelming and now is a wonderful time to refuel yourself with the magic of meditation, asana, and community.

The guided weekend is a chance to renew, realign, and rejuvenate you. The weekend includes special yoga sequences (with great playlists), time in nature, comfy lodgings and prepared nourishing food.

Spring retreat
First of all, I’d like to say that I thoroughly enjoyed the retreat! The room had a couple things that could use improvement, mainly in the bathroom. The sink in the bathroom, the hot water valve was leaking. And we had a few problems with the shower, retaining hot water.
Other than those couple of items, the food was delicious. The staff was amazing and I definitely will return.
