About this trip

***EARLYBIRD discount ends 1.18.20... use code EARLYBIRD at checkout***


Join me for a week of yoga & adventure in northern Patagonia. Throughout the week we will explore ways to connect with oneself, nature & those around us, so we can share the light that shines bright inside of each of us. You can expect hiking, yoga & meditation based practices & workshops daily however this is YOUR time and you can participate in as much or little as you want. We will have a day of volunteer service as a way to give back to the community that is welcoming us onto their land. The Earthship is a beautiful space to restore & rejuvenate.


What we do in our retreats is just as important as where we stay. Finding retreat spaces that are in line with sustainability and nature. The Earthship is the perfect place to feel that connection. 


A little info from The Earthship Patagonia's website: 

Organic garden. Adobe contruction. Solar panels. Rainwater collection and recycling. Organic home-grown communal meals. Eco-education and outreach. Come get inspired! We are an Eco Accomodation Project in the centre of town! Our buidling is --- beautiful!! An ecological passive solar designed home built by 70 students on an international bio construction workshop!

I leaned on yoga while working the grind in Corporate America before realizing success doesn't have a C-level title or a dollar sign. Trading 70 hour work weeks for 70 mile hikes, sharing the healing power of the outdoors and yoga. My approach builds from my experience playing in the mountains; yoga as a means to stay healthy mentally, emotionally, physically. After trainings with PTSD, TBI and my own experiences, I now focus working with private clients; I am currently enrolled in an 800 hour Yoga Therapy program with Amrit Institute.

T'was a wonderful retreat and timing for a transition happening in my life. The combination of activities - both athletic, and mindfulness activities were thoughtful and balanced. The food was absolutely amazing, and it was great to be able to have in a "community" space and table for sharing and getting to know others and meet new friends. Thank you Bre, Amy, and Madison for a VERY memorable time and experience! :)) ~ Arlene xo

A wonderful weekend of yoga, hiking and goal setting, combined with deliciously and thoughtfully prepared food and refreshments. I am counting down till the next trip that these three amazing people organize.

It was a real treat to attend Breana and Amy's Yoga, Mindfulness Adventure. It was a great combination with yoga, hiking and mindfulness. All the activities were run with great care and attention to the attendees. Good variety of yoga classes emphasizing different areas of our bodies. The mindfulness was something totally new to me and something I can further explore. Hiking in the Colorado mountains gave us an opportunity to also enjoy the great outdoors. Very satisfying few days. I highly recommend attending future adventures put on by Breana and Amy. Helen from Southern California

The experience at the Yoga, Mindfulness and Adventure was amazing. The yoga instructions was great. I was a first time yogi as I attended with my wife and I was able to complete multiple classes. The workshops for mindfulness were very good for my marriage. The hiking was outstanding as the colorado views were great even in the rain. The food and accommodations were in line with the entire weekend, love it! Thank you to the team that put all this together for my wife and I. We will be back!
