Ashtanga Yoga Weekend Retreat

Open to all levels of yoga practitioners. 

Whether you are new to Ashtanga or have been practicing with me for years, my intention is to lead you through practices and workshops that are both inspiring and motivating.  All in the beautiful surroundings of the Kio-o Center in the Laurentians.   

A Weekend of Exploration

A beautiful opportunity to escape for a couple of days this fall to practice Ashtanga yoga, enjoy guided meditations and pranayama sessions, and participate in workshops that will help you to deepen your knowledge and your practice - all the while immersed in nature and surrounded by the vibrant colours of fall in the Laurentiens.

 

Weather permitting, we will also go on a group nature hike. There will also be leisure time in the schedule so you can unwind, relax and enjoy the calm natural surroundings at the Kio-o Centre.
