Yoga Retreats
Yoga, great food, laughter and relaxationTake a break from life’s busyness and nourish yourself on a weekend yoga & wellness retreat or single day retreat.
In partnership with Dawn McKiernan, our next yoga and wellness retreat takes us to Karma Kinglake for a 3-day, 2 night rejuventing midwinter retreat.
We give ourselves the gift of deep rest and self care nestled amongst the gums.
You’ll walk away lighter in spirit, with better sleep, more motivated and with effective and proven tools to nourish you in everyday life.
