WE HAVE TWO NEW RETREATS COMING UP IN 2023!

 

Join Luna and Katy for this once-in-a-lifetime yoga, meditation, and music retreat.  From the Jungle to the Sea, we will immerse ourselves in Jamaica’s sacred lands to slow down, find balance, and remember joy.  Good hope is a magical place located 20 minutes into the mountains on a 3000-acre fruit plantation.  Good Hope also has a wonderful beach dwelling that can be used as much as wished.

In this week-long retreat in beautiful Jamaica, we’ll let go of the to-do lists and the “shoulds” and instead reconnect with our practice, our community, and our true Self. Through daily asana and meditation practices as well as the study of the Yoga Sutras, you’ll unite mind, body, and spirit and, in the meantime, connect with like-minded happy yogis in a fun and easy environment. Leave the retreat feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and re-focused on what’s truly important in life. Read more here.
