This mid-summer come along for 4 nights, 5 days right in the town of Telluride, and an alpine retreat and summer adventure unlike any other. We’re ready for a nature bath in one of the most beautiful corners of Colorado.
Imagine yourself surrendered by scenic mountains endless waterfalls, star gazing and unwinding in fresh mountain air with space to relax, explore, practice, meditate, practice, create, and connect, thrive, and adventure!
Join me for my next Telluride Yoga, Hiking, Meditation Retreat and a long weekend in my favorite little mountain town in Colorado for an alignment-based yoga, hiking, meditation, and art retreat you’ll never forget.
Slow down, pause, and revel in daily yoga, a couple of hikes together, an art workshop, and more. We will slow down in our yoga practices to enjoy and explore the energetics and alignment of asanas, proper breath work, and a variety of guided mindful and insight meditations.
Students will also have the option to pop around town or simply soak up more time relaxing, soaking, or by the river, or explore more on your own.
All students are encouraged to join but basic outdoor knowledge and some hiking experience is encouraged as this is a high-altitude mountain retreat.
Retreat yourself and create space to slow down and share a wonderful long weekend with a fantastic group of adventurous, mindful, and nature-loving human beings.
Enjoy a stay at incredible and lovely houses and condos right in town not far from the river, trails, gondola, and walking distance to everything. We will also enjoy access to a shared hot tub on site.
Take time to deepen and explore your yoga and meditation practices in a safe and supportive container and space with an experienced yoga and meditation teacher, student, and educator. Create space for practice, joy, nature, and community, and join us in the incredible and inspiring San Juan Mountains and Telluride, Colorado.
We’ll get out for a couple of hikes together, get creative with a little art and painting with epic views, reflect in journaling sessions, and immerse ourselves in the mountains. Yoga practices will be sustainable and appropriate for all, from beginning students to advanced practitioners and teachers.
Daily breakfast/brunch will be provided each day, as well as 3 dinners in at the main house, and out together at our favorite incredible local restaurants in the area.
Grab a friend, family member, or partner, or join solo and join us this mid-summer for a yoga holiday and mountain adventure you won’t want to miss, and retreat to self, nature, and community.

Yoga:
We will be practicing a dynamic, sustainable, syrong, and compassionate Hatha yoga practice and flow, marrying together the traditions of Iyengar and Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. We will also weave in workshopping, gentle and restorative yoga, and Yoga Nidra relaxation.
We will slowly and mindfully weave our way through alignment-based practices each day, taking time to workshop asanas and come-see-come-look moments, allowing students to demo postures as we practice.
Expect a sustainable practice with longer holds occasionally, flowing, breakdowns of alignment and postures, and a focus on the breath. Classes are wonderful and appropriate for all levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners and teachers. We ask students to be curious and expect to take a deep and joyful dive into the practice and their own inner ecology and wilderness.
Styles:
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga, Hatha Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Vinyasa Yoga, Vipassana & Yoga, Iyengar Yoga, Yin Yoga, General Yoga, Yoga Nidra
Skill Level: appropriate for beginner, intermediate, and advanced
Meditation:
We will enjoy guided meditation and will explore the style of Insight/Vipassana and mindful meditation.
Within this style, we will explore a variety of methods, including breath meditation, heart meditations, including a compassion meditation and a metta or living kindness meditation. We will talk about the basics of meditation, finding a comfortable seat, and the roots of mindfulness.
We will take time to explore seat options, mudras, our breath, and begin cultivating a greater sense of connection and intimacy with our own breath and mind, and we practice befriending the breath and befriending the mind on and off the yoga mat.
At the end of the day, yoga is life; it’s how we are living and how we are meeting ourselves on and off the yoga mat, and we can’t wait to share an incredible time together living well, immersed in practice, nature, and community.
