Retreat with me

This human experience is endlessly fascinating when we give ourselves the space and permission to explore.

When we shift our surroundings, we often shift pieces inside of us that may have become habituated from our day to day. A bit of a pause and shake up can produce new eyes from which we can meet ourselves and our life with a freshness.

Our capacity for connection is vast, sometimes it just needs a place to unfold. I hope to help create that space. With my gatherings, whether they are adventure retreats or more internal, I strive to curate containers that aid in the expansion of perspective and possibility.

The community that I’ve witnessed cultivated in these retreats, blows me away and melt my heart, again and again. When we slow, observe, and engage mindfully with the world around us, the people around us, we cannot come back unchanged in our relationship to ourselves.

I was looking for a complete reset mentally, physically, and emotionally. The potency of healing and processing as a community is overwhelmingly powerful. This trip was everything I was hoping for and more.

Thank you Cole & team for a wonderful journey into re-discovery of self. The yoga, learnings, location, nourishing food & indigenous teachings were amazing. It was a privilege to share this time with a beautiful group of like minded women.

It’s hard to describe how good this retreat really was. Everybody involved was so generous with their knowledge, time and love. I felt deeply cared for at all times. There wasn’t a thing I’d change about it, apart from having it run all year! I’ll be forever grateful for the gifts I received in mind body and spirit.

Absolutely. We practice asana about once a day, and it’s always offered in a way that meets you where you are. There are no competitions or expectations. Yoga here is one doorway, alongside many others—movement, rest, writing, art, and time in nature all hold equal weight.

Our focus isn’t on achieving complex postures, but on listening to the body with presence. Daily asana classes are supportive for all levels, and they’re balanced by somatic movement, relational practices, and simple ways of inhabiting yourself more fully.

Mornings often carry more energizing movement, while evenings tend toward slower, restorative, or contemplative practices. Beyond yoga asana, we’ll move through somatic inquiry, breathwork, embodied art, and collective practices that widen our sense of connection.

The classes weave body, heart, and imagination—movement, writing, authentic relating, cultural explorations, and time in the forest or by the sea. Everything is optional, and you’re invited to choose what truly serves you.

Each retreat has its own rhythm, but generally there’s a flow of morning movement, shared meals, creative or relational workshops, and time to rest or explore the land and culture around us. Nothing is mandatory. You are invited to follow what feels most nourishing.

Meals are colorful, seasonal, and nourishing. Depending on the retreat and what’s available locally, menus may include vegetarian and plant-based dishes, or thoughtfully sourced eggs and meats. Whenever possible, ingredients are local and organic. Please share any allergies or dietary needs—we’ll do our best to accommodate.

Most people do. These retreats gather strangers from all over the world, and it’s remarkable how quickly those strangers become kin. Come solo, and you’ll likely leave with new friendships and a wider circle of connection.

Our circles are usually a mix of ages and backgrounds—from teens to seventies, from seasoned practitioners to total beginners. What matters most is curiosity, openness, and a willingness to be in community.
