Retreat Intention
This day-long retreat will offer many elements of the yoga practice (SATYA, asana, pranayama, meditation, etc) in longer sessions designed to offer time both to journey inward and connect with others in the yoga community.
Please come with a sense of curiosity and willingness to explore. Some yoga experience is recommended, although all levels are welcome. There will also be an opportunity to rest, hike, write, read, and visit with friends.
