INTO THE CONNECTION
DAY retreat
EXPLORE, EXPAND, CONNECT
June 6, 2026 | 12 - 5 PM
Summer invites us outward.
Into longer days, open skies, and the fullness of life.
Where spring asked us to plant and nurture, summer asks us to explore what’s possible — in our bodies, our practice, and our community.
Join us for an immersive day retreat designed to awaken curiosity, deepen connection, and expand your experience of True Nature.
Through movement, breath, and shared experience, you’ll be guided through a dynamic journey of exploration, expansion and integration — discovering new edges, new teachers, and new dimensions of your practice.

thIS DAY Retreat is the perfect medicine to realign with your Practice for sUMMER.
