This retreat exceeded my expectations. It became a very deep,
profound spiritual experience and of course an amazing yoga practice.

This retreat went above and beyond. I feel my asanas are much better
and I felt a great sense of silence in me, which is not easy.

Sarah Rose JeffersonUSA

I really enjoyed the asana classes. I’m a beginner but I felt very confident
when doing the postures. The classes were very well guided.

Giorge Alexandre Dos SantosBrazil

My intention was to go deeper into the yoga sutras and yoga asanas. I was in grad school for
yoga therapy and we used the sutras a lot. This retreat was so clear and I learned more than ever. 

Lynne PidelUSA

I knew it would be physically challenging and was hoping that people like myself who had not been practicing yoga asanas recently would be accommodated and we were with great compassion.

Thomas DoyleUSA

I so appreciated the meditative nature of many of the classes and the restorative
focus mixed with more active postures.

It was the first time that a yoga class has been so spiritual. I loved the intentions

Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali Retreat Chapter on Freedom; Kaivalya Pada

The Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali highlight the movements of the mind and point toward a freedom that does not depend on circumstance.

“The purpose of Yoga is for our inner well-being. It does not belong to any particular faith or religion. It was passed on to us by the ancient seers for the well-being of humanity. Yoga helps us to reconnect with nature and eventually become one with God.”
