About your trip

Ring in the new year with like-minded yogis in a peaceful sanctuary in beautiful Central California. Escape routine at this rustic, 163-acre private retreat center surrounded by the picturesque Santa Margarita foothills. Featuring a stunning pool, dedicated yoga room, a 6,000 square foot main lodge and eco-friendly barn, the ranch combines the magnificence of California’s nature with cozy, comfortable accommodations.


Deepen your physical practice with daily practices ranging from flow to restoratives, and explore beyond asana with meditation and pranayama. We will create vision boards, set intentions, honor a day of silence and gain clarity and calmness for the new year to come!


This is the perfect place to get quiet, centered and clear as we embrace 2018
