DAY RETREAT
May 21, 2023
11:30-5PM
Yoga is a small word with a huge heart.
Taste of Yoga Day Retreat is an opportunity - lovingly created by our 300YTT students - to unplug from the crazy of life and retreat into the 8 limbs of yoga.
Discover how - with just a few hours of your time - you can embody a more peaceful presence with your soul.
Participants will curate their own customized retreat schedule by choosing between over 8 different breakout sessions throughout the day. Healthy snacks will be provided and there will be time to chat with yoga teachers regarding how to build a practice to serve you best.
We know life is busy and taking an out of town retreat does not always feel feasible. Our intention with this offering is to hold space for you to realign with your true self and then step back into life more deeply connected to your soul and inspired through the art of yoga.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Participants will be able to choose (4) different 45 minute sessions with 15 minute breaks in-between.
There will be over 8 different options to choose, ranging from:
Sound Bath, Vinyasa yoga , Pranayama, Kundalini, Philosophy, Journaling, Dosha Discovery, Yin + Reiki, Yoga Nidra & time to unwind in our relaxation room or chat one on one with one of our 300YTT yoga teachers about cultivating your yoga journey.
Because yoga is so much more than just the poses, this event has also been created to raise awareness and funds for Dress for Success, a global non-profit that empowers women to achieve economic independence. All proceeds from the Taste of Yoga retreat will be donated to this organization.
Participants are also invited to bring new or gently used shoes and/or handbags.
Advanced registration is required. Space is limited so sign up to reserve your spot.
Frequently asked questions:
Can I come if I am new to yoga? YES! We actually love introducing people to yoga and helping them discover how yoga can be uniquely woven into each individual’s wellness journey.
What if I can't stay for the entire retreat? We always feel a little yoga is better than none at all, so if you need to leave early or come late, that is completely fine. You will need to still sign up for the entire retreat but you will be able to pick and choose which parts you come to if you can not stay for the entire time.
How do I select my breakout sessions? Once you sign up, you will be emailed a link to sign up for your desired sessions and make your custom itinerary for the day.
What if I change my mind once I arrive and want to switch my sessions? We will be offering each session 2 times through out the day so people have more of an opportunity to participant in sessions that interest them the most. Sessions are filled on a first come first serve basis, so as long as there is space, you are welcome to change your agenda throughout the day.
What if I can’t participate but I still want to donate funds or items? We will miss having you attend for sure but you are welcome to stop by anytime during the retreat and drop off gently used shoes, handbags or make a monetary donation.
Snacks and drinks are provided. What if I have allergies? With our yoga studio located inside a holistic doctors office, we are very aware of the importance of having dietary restrictions met. Each participant will be sent an intake form which will ask about dietary needs. We will do all that we can to make sure you are safe and can enjoy your retreat with no fear of food allergies. If a one-on-one conversation is needed, we will gladly speak individually to ensure this is possible.
I don’t think I can “do yoga” for 5 1/2 hours. Is this day retreat for me? A lot of people are surprised when they come on one of our multi-day retreats or even sign up for our yoga teacher training that we do not “do yoga” the entire time. :-). Yoga is much more than all the poses you see in the media. There will be time for discussions, journaling, walking in nature, connecting with other lovely souls. If you want to move all day long, you will have that opportunity. If you want to build a more gentle restorative day retreat, you most certainly will be able to do that too!
Reach out if you have additional questions. We look so forward to holding space for you to have a Taste of Yoga Day Retreat all while supporting a wonderful cause!
