Everyone is welcome, from beginners to continuing students. Instruction is accessible for everyone, with a variety of modifications that all levels can use to adapt so that the practice meets you, wherever you are at. There is a mix of all levels on Carolyn’s retreats.

Carolyn created and teaches Spa Yoga, which is a blend of Hatha, Restorative, Slow Flow and Breath. It's super mellow, restorative, and with a big focus on breathing. The perfect antidote to a busy life.

Yes! We can put a mat down for you and you slide into the class whenever you arrive, or simply meet us at the first dinner. This is your retreat. Take your time.

Check the brochure for the event you’re interested in. For overnight retreats: a detailed reminder of what to pack will be sent out one month prior to the retreat. For one day retreats: a reminder of what to bring will be sent 6 days prior.

The retreats generally begin with a 4pm yoga class and dinner following on the first day. More exact start and end times can be found on each retreat page and in each brochure.

We can help you find a roommate. It’s highly likely this will work out :)

Absolutely. A retreat is a lovely way to care for your growing body and to prepare for the changes that lie ahead. Carolyn is a certified prenatal instructor and has also been through the experience herself. She offers many tips and modifications for pregnancy.
