This five-day transformational yoga retreat on a beautiful horse ranch in the foothills of Utah’s Uinta Mountain Range is designed to rewild you back to your power and presence led by a team of five coaches, riding the energetic vortex of the Autumn equinox. This retreat is a great way to take your first steps into self growth and transformation, or simply hit reset if you already have some self awareness and mindfulness practices. If you’re drawn to the majestic spirit of the horse, and want to learn how to energetically harness the elements in your own internal calibration and healing… This retreat is for you!
