RADIENT RENEWAL: Three Days of Dedicated Yoga
with Nikki Robinson & Mark Nelson
Jump start your yoga practice after the long, cold winter!
It’s time to plant the spring seeds for a vibrant lifestyle! We’ll help you shed the layers of winter with a deep dive into dynamic asana, pranayama, meditation and philosophy. You’ll move and rest, and you’ll have the collective energy of our whole group to motivate you on this all-levels retreat.
For three days, you’ll enjoy the bookends of the practice with stimulating vinyasa complemented by cool, nurturing restorative and yin yoga sessions. And while you focus on your yoga, we’ll make everything else easy for you: delicious food, simple lodging options, wide open spaces to explore, and even additional spa treatments to leave you refreshed and revitalized.
The Radiant Renewal is your chance get back on your mat and back into your practice:
A WEEKEND DESIGNED FOR YOU:
Friday, April 17
To help you transition from your work week into retreat mode, we’ll offer a mixed-levels slow flow and a grounding restorative practice, setting the tone for the weekend.
Saturday, April 18
We’ll start the day with a mixed-levels flow and build up into dynamic transitions to get you moving and back in your body. Then in the afternoon, we’ll help you ground and reconnect through restorative and yin practices. That evening, weather permitting, we’ll venture out for a campfire under the stars in the majestic open space of the mountains.
Sunday, April 19
Your practice will move from seed to plant and bud to flower as you explore how simple poses build into expansive asana. You’ll wind down from yang to yin and distill your experience into a calming experience that will resonate even as you return home.

Its services include global humanitarian projects, publishing books, a holistic health center (Purejuv Wellness Center), and the internationally acclaimed Yoga International website and educational platform.
