Retreat Change is our only constant. Sometimes it is an epic relief and other times, it is a devastating weight. Along this continuum of experiences, the one thing we know is that change brings us closer to our truest selves and destined path. We have the ability to harness and flow with change to explore the depths of our creative, emotional, and powerful selves. In this world today, we also are invited to find the strength, balance, and stability within to maintain grace and compassion while ebbing and flowing with the unknown. The core devotion of this retreat is to provide the space and intention to build strength, flexibility, and endurance in the mind, body, and soul, stoking the Sacred Flame within, while connecting to the powerful nature of the island. Join us for incredible asana, strength building, beautiful food, and connection with nature on the island of empowered transformation.
