Begin your day with an early arrival to connect with the earth and prepare for a nostalgic journey into the heart of good old-fashioned fun & community spirit. Jump into some cooperative field games and relay races reminiscent of carefree summer days… Then, bask in the sunshine as fan-favorite jazz-folk-Indian fusion band Gaia Raga takes the stage for a live music performance. Savor the taste of freshly baked wood-fired pizza made on the spot by Massamiliano, paired perfectly with mocktail elixirs that will quench your thirst and tantalize your taste buds. As the sun begins to set, it's time to lose yourself in the exhilarating rhythms of Ecstatic Dance, guided by Dj Sylo… Dance under the stars and feel the FREEDOM of expression coursing through your veins! To wrap up the evening, we gather around the crackling bonfire to share songs and stories together. FRIDAY TO SUNDAY: Yoga Retreat *4th of July Celebration included* As the sun rises on Friday morning, our retreat transitions into a more intimate and introspective space. Throughout the weekend, we will explore grounding practices like Kriya Yoga, Meditation, Prayer, and Sound Healing to develop a sense of inner silence and independence. To balance it out, we will also be guiding you through playful practices like ecstatic dance, cooperative games and group exercises to explore our interdependence with one another to foster a deeper connection with yourself and others. In the evenings, we gather around the bonfire for special guest acoustic music, fire spinning, and storytelling, creating cherished moments of connection and camaraderie. Our motivation for curating this retreat is to guide you towards a new level of inner and outer freedom. Whether it's finding peace amidst chaos or expressing your true self authentically, this retreat offers a sacred space for self-discovery and growth.
