I have been teaching yoga for 10 years. I am 730-hour yoga alliance certified in vinyasa, transformational hatha, restorative, yin & yang, pre & post-natal, therapeutic, and SUP yoga.

We all have different definitions of fun, so you choose what that means to you. We created this retreat for you to let go of what’s burdening you and take care of your heart and soul, as well as your body with movement classes, yoga, swimming, and other options of fun outdoor activities.
