This retreat offers a rare opportunity to fully immerse yourself in yoga—on and off the mat. Whether you choose a half-day (up to 4 hours) or full-day (up to 8 hours) schedule, each day will be grounded in the eight limbs of yoga, with guided classes, time in nature, and space to reflect and reset.
