Join yoga teacher & embodiment coach, Natalie Somers, for a weekend of yoga & embodied rest. This three day retreat takes place in the beautiful redwoods of Los Gatos, CA on sacred Ohlone land and offers the perfect space to restore and replenish in nature.

Each day begins with Hatha yoga & meditation, followed by afternoon activities and evening restorative practices. There will be plenty of free time in between to indulge in the sweetness of being in nature, soak in the cedar hot tub, read poolside, explore, get creative at the art barn and more!

Enjoy Ayurvedic meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. All meals will be ovo-vegetarian and gluten free (vegan available) consisting of fresh fruit, seasonal veggies, eggs, grains, legumes, delicious spices and lots of hydration! Healthy & delicious snacks included. 

*Scholarships available for Queer & BIPOC. Please contact the organizer for details. 

How many single rooms are available?

There is one single yurt available. Very comfortable for one, could work for two if you're willing to get cozy! Contact your event organizer to inquire about booking for two. Price is per person.

Will I be sharing a room with someone else?

There are seven single beds in the shared sleeping yurt. So, if you're booking that option you will be sharing space with others.

Do I need to bring my own food or snacks?

You are more than welcome to bring your own food and snacks. However, you will be served nourishing Ayurvedic breakfast, lunch, dinner and healthy snacks each day.

Yes, prices are per person and each individual needs to purchase a ticket. If you are sharing a tent with another traveler, please indicate who you will be sharing with when completing your participant information.

Is the retreat weather permitting?

Safety is our biggest concern, so as long as the roads are safe to drive on and there aren't any rainstorms or wildfires, the retreat is on!

Will there be free time between activities?
