Our June retreat has sold out for the last 3 years! For those of you lucky enough to be registered to attend, here's what you can expect:
Nestled alongside the Green River in Sandgate, VT is where our Inn is located (just one hour from Saratoga Springs and four hours from NYC). The Inn is surrounded by mountains. The silence is deafening and the scenery is magnificent. Picture an authentic, quiet inn in Vermont! We have exclusive run of the Inn with no other guests. Each room is large and equipped with an ensuite bath and there are several common areas for lounging. We have a large deck and a covered pavilion for yoga and outdoor dining. We will enjoy yoga, meditation, hiking and painting as well as some local flavors of summertime in Vermont.
How we'll spend our days:
Friday
Plan on arriving at 5:00- 6:00pm on Friday to check into your room, unpack and unwind. There will be a welcoming circle and a yoga class at 6:00pm and then the group will enjoy a delicious dinner. There will be a team event in the lounge following dinner and later at the outdoor fire pit. You wouldn’t want to miss this opportunity to bond with other retreat goers.
Saturday
A light snack will be available before you begin the day’s activities in the restaurant starting at 7:30. There will be a guided meditation and Yoga will from 8:30-10:00 followed by breakfast from 10-11:00. After breakfast is the first workshop until 1:00. Lunch will be served from 1-2:00. After lunch, the group will meet in the lobby to go on a light afternoon hike. There will be a few hours of free time to soak in the river or go kayaking or tubing on the Battenkill, or just relax before we come back for some stretching which should conclude around 6:15 so you have time to freshen up before our group dinner at 7:00pm. After dinner, meet us back in the lounge for the evening activity.
