Awaken the wild. Awake in the wild. Wildness is childlike. Wildness is innocent. Wildness is free. This yoga and adventure retreat will tap into the inner child within each of us. It will spark joy and unleash our playfulness. In yoga, this is lila - divine play. 

This retreat experience was born from nostalgia and inspired by the long, playful, timeless summer days of my own childhood. My age says I’m an adult but my spirit is definitely still a child. I want to share this childlike spirit with others in the presence of nature because nature is the wildest of them all! 

Awaken the Wild Yoga and Adventure Retreat is an adult summer camp. Leave all your responsibilities behind and come be a big kid for a week of fun and frolicking in the mountains, rivers, meadows and lakes of Glacier National Park. I’ll be your camp counselor for the week, curating classes and experiences to awaken the wild child inside of each of us. Expect daily yoga under the big sky, hikes, rafting, horseback riding, games, campfires and plenty of time to just be. 

There is more than one way to restore and reset. My hope is that absorbing all of the good vibes from mother nature, building community, and tapping in to our collective effervescence will be a restoration of our spirits! But don’t worry, relaxation and down time will definitely be built in to our days because kids take naps, right? 

We will be staying in glamping tents at Under Canvas Glacier in Coram, MT. “Located just seven miles from the west entrance to Glacier National Park, Under Canvas Glacier offers travelers a one-of-kind, upscale, outdoor experience in Montana’s “Big Sky Country.” Recognized as a ‘Top 20 Resort in the U.S. – Pacific Northwest & West’ by Condé Nast Traveler, Under Canvas Glacier is designed in close connection to the surrounding wilderness, offering easy access to the park’s 700 miles of trails to breathtaking alpine lakes, rugged snow-capped peaks, and wildflower-covered meadows.”
