About organizer

Kaia Yoga was founded in 2006 in Connecticut, and has studios throughout the Connecticut and New York area.
Kaia means pure in Sanskrit, and purity is central to all we teach and practice. Through mindfulness meditation, traditional yoga in various forms, and healing modalities to support and deepen your practice, we invite you to a refreshing life of purity and joy.

Our lovely teacher Holly Arcadi is leading this life changing retreat. She is a local Westport Mom and certified and experienced Yoga Teacher, who after a lengthy career in Digital Marketing, decided to follow her passion within the yoga community. She completed her initial 200 hour YTT with Dice and Briohny Smyth, and not one but two 300 hour advanced trainings with Kaia Yoga and with Cathy Madeo Yoga. During her 20 years of yoga practice, she has been exposed to many different styles of yoga all over the world. Yoga has always been like “pizza” to her- she has never met a slice she didn’t like! That being said, she was taught to teach a style of class that she would want to take.

She tends to gravitate towards Power/Vinyasa/flow yoga classes because building strength, flexibility, and balance in the mind and body is equally as important as building those attributes in life. In her classes, you can expect a powerful, mindful, well-crafted experience designed to energize, ground, and empower you to be the best version of yourself both on and off your mat. She loves arm balancing, inversions and challenging transitions, so you can expect to have the option to explore.
