About this trip

To cultivate inspiration and clarity of mind, to feel powerful, strong, and refreshed, to move past personal limiting beliefs and tap into the unique gifts you were born with.  To relax and connect in a gorgeous natural setting, care for yourself, and to feel free in your mind, body, and expression.


Location: Located seven miles and 1,600 feet of elevation gain from the Yellowstone River and just 60 miles from downtown Bozeman, our retreat location places you in the heart of the Paradise Valley, one of Montana’s most awe-inspiring landscapes. The Tom Miner Basin is a diverse landscape that provides important habitat for most forms of wildlife also found in neighboring Yellowstone National Park. The snow-covered mountain peaks that surround our private ranch retreat, the B Bar, jut a thousand + feet above the tree-dotted valley and provide inspiration, as well as a chastening reminder that we are only temporary inhabitants of this beautiful planet. 


Daily Experience: Wake up to orange sunrise over the Absaroka Range, the crisp morning air of September in the mountains, and the smell of freshly brewed coffee, and delicious gourmet food. Offerings include daily yoga practice and workshops.  Daily guided meditation. Live guided soundbath sessions. Trail riding. Guided tour and education about wildlife, sustainable and organic cattle ranching, the cowboy way of life, and how to powerfully steward the land.  Sunset wagon ride and wildlife viewing.  Campfire and fire ceremony. Fly fishing in the stocked trout pond. Group hikes. Hot springs visit. 

About Us

Lauren and Molly first met through a shared love of yoga in 2016 and have been collaborating and connecting through their mutual love of family and adventure ever since.  They are excited to lead you on this journey! They each bring powerful and complimentary experience and skills to co-create unsurpassed experiences for clients throughout the world. 

Lauren's Bio

Lauren has been practicing yoga for over 25 years and has been teaching Baptiste Power Vinyasa yoga since 2015.  In addition to teaching yoga, she is a professional mental health counselor.  Lauren fell in love with the physical practice of yoga and quickly realized the benefits of integrating it into her clinical work and personal life.  


Lauren is committed to achieving balance both on and off the mat, having led students in their individual journeys to self discovery through yoga workshops and instruction in Asia, Africa and North America.  She has a zest for life and seeks balance in all she does, and is passionate about facilitating others in discovering their own potential.  When not working, Lauren finds her own balance through trail running, white water rafting and kayaking, travel and spending time with her family.

Molly's Bio

Molly has been practicing yoga for 20 years and has been teaching and leading classes and trainings for 12.  She is a Tier 3, 1200- Hour Baptiste Certified Teacher, an E-RYT 500, YACEP with Yoga Alliance and is certified to teach Yin Yoga and Prenatal Yoga.  Molly originally founded The Practice Power Yoga in Bozeman, Montana in 2019.  She has now moved beyond the studio to continue expanding her reach, leading successful corporate and private yoga, soundbath and meditation programs.  She teaches group classes at Bend Beyond Yoga in Bozeman and otherwise puts her energy towards guiding fabulous adventures for On Point Yoga Adventures.  


Growing up as a competitive horseback rider, Molly began practicing yoga in 2002 as a way to help rehab a series of riding-related injuries and to manage anxiety and stress.  Through this powerful practice she found healing, strength and comfort in her body, clarity in her mind and inspiration in her soul.  She credits yoga with shifting her entire way of being.  In addition to leading group classes, Molly loves curating trainings, workshops and retreat experiences for anyone who wants to expand beyond their day to day and discover something new.  When Molly isn't teaching, running a business, leading teacher trainings or adventuring on retreat, she enjoys skiing, hiking and playing with her family and snuggling with her two sweet, sleepy dogs.  She also recently embarked on a second graduate degree in Clinical Counseling through Wake Forest University.

Molly and Lauren are perfect leaders. This retreat was what I needed to ground myself for fall. I wish the last day had been all day!

This was a wonderful combination of a yoga/wellness retreat and boutique tourism. Staying at Il Roccone, a beautifully renovated farmhouse tucked up on a hill overlooking the beautiful town of Piancastagnaio, Italy was amazing! Each morning we began our day with meditation up on a platform surrounded by a most serene natural environment. The meditation began with an inspirational reading from Molly or Lauren, our illustrious hosts!! Once done, we would go down to the yoga studio for yoga activities which also included, but not limited to, yoga, sound baths etc. Absolutely outstanding! The resonant sounds truly soothed my soul. The team assigned to the Retreat, could not be more accommodating. Carlo the owner of the farmhouse, along with Renato, the house manager and Elena our chef, truly cared about our comfort and always provided assistance when needed with a smile at all times!! Just to mention, if there are dietary concerns, they will be accommodated. Also, each day there was an excursion of some type, planned for the group, i.e. hiking, city tours, thermal baths, wine tasting etc. I highly recommend this Retreat if you want to rediscover yourself and/or become a better version of yourself. Molly and Lauren will guide you through whatever it is you may need. They are very compassionate, patient and non-judgmental. Wonderful program! Thank you!!!!! Michele M.

Words can not begin to express the gratitude I have for this experience. The grounds, accommodations and staff of ChoZen were simply amazing. From the moment of arrival to the bittersweet moment of departure, this yoga retreat flowed from one experience to the next with love and grace. Lauren and Molly poured their heart and souls into ensuring that each participant had a beautiful experience - and that physical limitations don't stop the flow of our practice. We learned to love ourselves where we are in our yoga practice and found deep compassion for ourselves in our every day lives. The addition of Jared and percussion through yoga and sound bath meditations took the experience to new levels. Ryan's input on acupuncture and how to integrate acupressure into everyday practical living combined with a visit to the Kashi Ashram was quite the perk. Chef Collin's food was divine art. I have expanded my knowledge and my soul to places I'd never imagined. I feel truly blessed to have been a part of this group, as each member of this experience was a gift. I feel that any retreat that Lauren and Molly pull together in the future will be a once in a lifetime experience that should not be missed. This was a beautiful adventure that flowed as life does with unexpected twists and turns. I feel so grateful to have been a part of it.
