Movement Social Pilates & Yoga Retreat

I promise Pilates and Yoga in the woods, food that nourishes, honey that heals, and setting the scene for inspiration. Beyond that, I make no claims.

Also, if you’ve been activating, organizing and are now regularly protesting in one form or another, this will be a good break and a lovely energy boost to keep on. I know because I planned this with the intention of giving my fellow global citizens a place to rest and feel safe.

Full description of the plan:

Reset and revitalize your energy during this four-day and three-night all-inclusive gathering in the mountains of South Central Pennsylvania during peak foliage season.

We will recharge and move thoughtfully in curated sessions that use Pilates, Somatic Movement, and Functional Mobility to help organize our bodies and minds. Opportunities to reset with this energy run abound with access to nature trails, natural springs, and star-filled skies. Creative release is encouraged in campfire drawing sessions and an improv workshop.

Ideal for the explorer seeking mindful inspiration and body nourishment. Message for reservation info.
