It will be an incredibly powerful and rich time to accelerate your personal yoga practice as well as learn the tools to offer safe, sacred, and energetically intelligent classes.

Part One – Mexico Immersion, Majahua Palms Jan 20 – 30 2019 : We will start with a 10 day immersion in Mexico where we will lay the groundwork for the months to come. There will be tons of self study, learning, ritual, and rhythm to tap into. The retreat space is lovely, simple, and remote. Although we will be spending a lot of time learning, there will be ample time to relax, enjoy the beach, and watch incredible sunsets over the ocean.

Part Two – Portland and Seattle: These weekends will be time of deep connection and study. We will meet all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Seattle sessions will take place at Kamala Yoga in Woodinville and Portland sessions will take place at Elk Rock Yoga in Milwaukie.
