Yoga + Botanical Drawing: 2 Moving Meditations

with Maile Sivert & Molly Brown


Let’s gather together, in a beautiful place, to practice yoga, be in community, meditate and be in nature.


Green Gulch is a Zen Center tucked in a serene valley near Muir Beach, with walking trails and an incredible garden.  We will practice in a yurt amongst eucalyptus trees and red tailed hawks, eat a healthy lunch prepared by Zen residents from their organic garden, wander the grounds and nearby beach.  This is an all levels practice day, with active and restorative practices, as well as plenty of free time to rest, read and explore. Everyone is welcome to come renew.


After lunch we will have a special treat with botanical art and scientific illustration teacher Molly Brown.  Molly will guide us through drawing flowers in the gorgeous Green Gulch garden.

Maile and Kimberly are exceptional yoga instructors who consistently lead inspiring, thoughtful, and engaging retreats. This was my second retreat with them in Todos Santos, and once again, it was truly amazing. Their classes struck the perfect balance between challenge and relaxation, leaving me both energized and restored. The stunning location provided unique opportunities for whale and bird watching, adding to the retreat’s magic. Most importantly, Maile and Kimberly’s deep knowledge of yoga, seamless collaboration, and warm, supportive presence make their retreats truly special. I highly recommend experiencing a retreat with them—you won’t be disappointed!

This was an extremely well-planned and enjoyable retreat experience, and I look forward to attending again next year! Maile and Kimberly thoughtfully planned for a variety of interests, creating many options throughout every day for leisure time. The two yoga practices each day were also varied and specifically planned, and there was daily meditation and yoga nidra offered in addition to yoga. The retreat center, lodgings, and staff were lovely, although I know some were frustrated by the fact that we could not walk to the beach -- shuttles were provided, however, and I took full advantage to walk the beach and watch the whales. The restaurant and location were pitch perfect for our last night, with a sunset cocktail reception on the beach with whales breaching just yards offshore. Maile and Kimberly have this retreat dialed, and they are both outstanding, knowledgeable, and versatile yoga instructors.

Maile Sivert was our fine yoga teacher, warm and down to earth. It was restorative and pleasing, with stretching, relaxing, meditating. The soup-and-salad lunch and nature drawing break were just right in the gorgeous country setting, with woods and gardens, yurt and beach.

What an amazing day! Maile is a gifted and adept teacher who leads with integrity and brings ease to everyone in a class. She beautifully held space for us and allowed us to expand our awareness in a beautiful environment. Can't wait for her next day-long!

This is my third time going to a day-long retreat at Green Gulch with Maille. She is a wonderful teacher with a kind and grounding presence. She creates an inviting and easeful environment. I always leave feeling peaceful, inspired, and rejuvenated. Green Gulch is a beautiful place to be immersed in nature and the lunch they serve is delicious! I cannot say enough good things about this experience and can't wait to go back for the next one!
