Summer Weekend Yoga Retreat with Hiking and Wine Tasting
At the beautiful Westerbeke Ranch, Sonoma, California
August 24-26, 2018 - from $675 per person
with Sally Mitchell (Yoga Teacher, Massage Therapist and Integrative Health Coach)

Join us for a rejuvenating weekend with yoga, wellness, hiking, nourishing and local food and delicious healing wines. We're thrilled to be heading back to the beautiful retreat center, Westerbeke Ranch, just 1 hour drive north of San Francisco, and 5 mins drive from Sonoma town plaza.

Nourish your body, connect with your self and nature, and relax and rejuvenate!

The yoga classes will be mostly Vinyasa Flow, linking movement with the breath, moving your body through both power and restorative poses, available for all levels and abilities. The classes will be theme-based, creative and balanced and will incorporate pranayama (breathing), strengthening, stretching, detoxing, energizing, and meditation. You will experience a safe and nurturing practice, leaving you feeling relaxed yet energized. There will be one Yin class during the retreat.

All levels are welcome and encouraged. We look forward to meeting you! If you have any questions or concerns about the level of yoga or anything else, please feel free to email or call us.
