About this trip

Togetherness with Intention. 

Join us for an intimate week-long women‘s retreat, set on the beautiful island of Kauai,  to take time for yourself, get present to who and where you are in life, shift your perspective, and bond with other incredible women along the way. 


The retreat dates coincide with the rare occurence of an astrological Blue Full Moon.  This is a full moon amplified and the perfect time to clear out the old and bring ourselves to a place of peace, where our deepest desires have space to come toward fruition.


This Once-in-a-Blue-Moon Retreat experience is designed to support you in disrupting business as usual, transforming your view of yourself and your life from the inside out. Offering a safe space to relax, rejuvenate, inquire, learn, play, grow, and heal - you will cultivate a renewed understanding of what it means to live fully, love deeply, and align with your highest Self.


You will be invited to participate in daily meditations, journaling exercises,  and yoga practices; as well as flexible time for rest and reflection, opportunities to explore the island, hike, relax on the beach, embark on specialty excursions, or take what you need in any given moment.  It's your time to embark on the retreat of a lifetime!

About your organizers

Angela Bompiani is 200 hour trained through the Baptiste Institute.  She has a Bachelor of Science in Education with a specialtion in Fitness and Recreation Management from The Ohio State University. In addition to teaching at Balanced Yoga Studios, Angela also works as an esthetician in Columbus, Ohio. She is heavily influenced by the work of Ana Forrest and the cycles of the moon. Her theme of life is to live in the moment and her life’s practice is the belief there is no set “right” plan you have to live up to. Create your own plan as you go, it’s going to be amazing no matter what. 


Courteney Martin is a 500 hour E-RYT Yoga teacher. A former college athlete and high school psychology teacher originally from a small island in Rhode Island, she started practicing yoga to balance her body from a lifetime of competitive sports, injuries, and as a release from the fast paced high-stress environment she had become accustomed to. She quickly realized that on her mat she ultimately found true peace & clarity of the mind and a healing balance of strength and flexibility.

Courteney completed her RYT 200 hour yoga training in 2013 in Rhode Island and since then has completed over 1,000 hours of teacher training in a blend of yoga styles including Vinyasa, Baptiste Power Yoga, Hatha, Kids Yoga, Stand-Up Paddle (SUP) Yoga, and Pre-Natal Yoga. She recently completed her 300 hour Advanced Yoga Training with Jason Crandell in San Francisco. 

Courteney currently teaches vinyasa-based classes on Kauai with an emphasis on alignment, breath, and self- exploration. She strives to help her students explore their own yoga experience and grow and transform on and off the mat.


Nicole Klasa

Nicole imparts her enthusiastic spirit and passion for yoga in her daily teachings. Inspired heavily by the practices of Kundalini yoga, Nicole is a disciplined and dedicated practitioner committed to shifting and uplifting the human experience through sharing the power of yoga, pranayama, meditation, self-reflection and human and community connection. Her current life mantras are: “the way to is through” and “everything happens for a reason, not to us, but with us, and for us”.


She first trained under Tami Schneider at Cleveland Yoga in 2013, and has been traveling and training with the Baptiste Institute annually since 2014.  Nicole currently leads classes, workshops, programs, and is the co-creator, lead teacher and trainer at Balanced Yoga Studios in Columbus, Ohio.

Angela and Nicole met at Balanced Yoga Studios in Columbus, Ohio. It was at a Baptiste training in Sedona, Arizona where they met Courteney. Through the amazingness of the universe, a love for yoga and the proper planetary alignement this retreat was created. Courteney currently resides in Kauai which adds to the uniqueness of this retreat. In additon to amazing yoga, you will get the home touch feel of all that Kauai has to offer.

A life-changing experience! Just the right blend of adventure, relaxation, inquiry and connection. Thank you Angela, Courteney, Nicole and Holly for being such thoughtful and generous hosts. From delicious, healthy meals to sweet yoga practices on our private deck overlooking the lush tropical landscape... everything was just amazing. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. Kauai is magical!
