Question 1

What does the price include?

Accepted Answer

• 2 outdoor yoga classes
• A delicious, nourishing lunch and lots of snacks
• Optional afternoon activities: make your own tea blend bar, yummy snacks, special group workshop

Question 2

What is not included in the price?

Accepted Answer

Prices do not include transportation to/from Lodge at Marconi, incidentals, accommodations if you choose to spend the night, or additional paid activities.

Question 3

Where is the retreat located?

Accepted Answer

Our home base for the day is the Lodge at Marconi in Tomales Bay, CA, though we’ll have plenty of time to explore the trails at Marconi State Park.

Question 4

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

Because of the upfront costs involved in planning a retreat, all bookings are non-refundable. I completely understand that no one signs up with the intention of canceling, and sometimes life happens, so if you're no longer able to attend, you're welcome to transfer your spot to someone else.

Question 5

I don't have a car, can I catch a ride?

Accepted Answer

During intake, we will ask folks if they are interested in carpooling (either offering a ride, or finding a ride). While we cannot guarantee that someone will be able to give you a ride, we will connect you with anyone else who is open to/interested in carpooling.

Question 6

What style of yoga classes will be offered?

Accepted Answer

The morning practice will be a creative vinyasa flow; expect a blend of heat-building asana woven with movements inspired by dance, functional neurology, and trauma-informed yoga. The closing practice will be a slow flow into restorative shapes, with longer holds and a chill, stretchy vibe.

Question 7

I'm a beginner or newer to yoga. Can I take these classes?

Accepted Answer

Beginners are absolutely welcome (and I often have folks in my classes who are brand new to the practice), though classes are not geared specifically toward beginners. A retreat setting can be great for someone newer to the practice, as there will be more chances to ask questions/get attention.

Question 8

Will you be able to accommodate my dietary restrictions/preferences?

Accepted Answer

We will send all registered attendees a questionnaire and will do our best to accommodate dietary restrictions.

Question 9

What should I bring?

Accepted Answer

I will send out a packing list as the retreat approaches, but you’ll want to make sure to bring your yoga mat, sun protection (sunscreen, hat, sunglasses), lots of cozy layers, your favorite yoga wear, and shoes you’re comfortable wearing outdoors.
