This is the 7th year that I have gifted myself with the much needed experience of renewal that I have only found at Lila Heller's Journey to the Heart retreats. Lila expertly weaves together yoga, pilates, Applied Neurology, and breath work to create a truly transformative week of movement. Lila and her guest teacher, Katie Ybarra, share a contagious synergy that quickly put us all at ease and filled our classes with laughter, strength building, and connection with each other. The location is a spot of tranquility on the Pacific Ocean, the food is delicious and nurturing, and everyone left longing for the next time. Nerissa H

Lila is a gifted teacher and retreat facilitator. This is my second retreat with Lila, and I always return home feeling so rejuvenated. From the beautiful location, the nourishing food, the mindful movement, and thoughtful agenda. I always find plenty of time for rest, exploration, and play. I also always enjoy the people that Lila attracts, such a beautiful array of people from all walks of life. Always kind, friendly, and interesting! I will absolutely be attending the next one.

Thank you Lila for creating another amazing retreat experience! Descriptive words are: connection, inspiration and nourishment. Lila's infectious and generous warmth and her skill for blending modalities offer an opportunity to be more present and aware in my body. I am encouraged to continue to move and feel better. The natural setting at Whispertree was a perfect place to renew my spirit. I left walking taller and my heart filled with gratitude. It was a gift to share this time with so many other wonderful humans.
