Mahāpatha Yoga Intensive

A Mahāpatha Yoga retreat is not a vacation but an opportunity to practice authentic esoteric yoga techniques in an ideal setting while being supported by a loving and accepting spiritual community and a knowledgeable and experienced teacher. Having the right teacher, community, and space when practicing can make the difference between success and failure when using these techniques. If you are serious about yoga as a spiritual path, then you owe it to yourself to see just how powerful and transformative these retreats can be.

This retreat will explore a blend of asana styles like Yin, Yang, Hatha, and Vinyasa as well as more advanced yoga techniques not taught in yoga studios. These include Mantra (chanting), Pranayama (yogic breathing), Bandha (energy locks), Mudra (energetic seals), Yoga Nidra (sleep meditation), and more.
