Welcome to Ambuja Yoga!

I’m Autumn, founder of Ambuja Yoga, and I help women like you design lives that feel exciting to wake up to through transformational coaching, deeply immersive yoga retreats and courses.

Imagine this: A life where you feel free from stress, self-doubt, and the fears that have held you back. You’ve released old stories and limiting beliefs that once kept you playing small, and now you’re stepping confidently into your true self. Your decisions flow effortlessly from a place of deep self-trust, and your days are filled with clarity, alignment, and a deep sense of joy. Meaningful relationships, purposeful work, and a sense of fulfillment surround you, and you’re living a life that reflects your most authentic desires.

At Ambuja Yoga, I guide women through this kind of personal transformation—helping you release emotional blocks, rediscover your inner strength, and live with purpose and ease. Whether through personalized coaching or transformational yoga retreats, you’ll receive the support you need to create a life that feels expansive, joyful, and aligned.

This life of freedom and fulfillment is yours to claim. Are you ready to step into it?

lefkada greece yoga retreat pool view

Close your eyes and envision your most perfect quiet morning… no pets needing to go out to pee, no kiddos to send off to school, no email inbox stealing your attention and peace. Instead, you sit on your terrace overlooking the Ionian Sea and sip on a cup of hot coffee while reading your favorite book or you hike down to the sea and go for a morning swim before your first yoga class of the day.

You join the morning yoga practice and are greeted by Autumn, your yoga instructor for the week, the energy in the room is light, bright and clear. She effortlessly weaves in stories of goddesses that seem to speak directly to your soul while simultaneously teaching the group and offering hands-on assists when you need it most.

You leave class feeling alive and empowered… and it’s not even breakfast yet.

This could be you. You could be here. I invite you to join us!

Join me in Lefkada, Greece this summer for a transformative week of GODDESS inspired self-care, self-love and yoga.

All you have to do is show up. Allow us to take care of everything else… nourishing your physical body with delicious food and balanced yoga practices, allow us to schedule your massages, allow us to prepare your meals and clean up afterward, allow us to organize outing–> boat trips and beach visits. Remember, you don’t have to do it all.

We will be calling the Greek island of Lefkas (also called Lefkada) home for our 7night/8 day retreat. Urania Villas overlooks the deep blue Ionian Sea and provides the perfect destination to get away from the stress of life back home and to hit the reset button.

Every once in a while you come across a place – which is so divine, so quiet and beautiful and surrounded by nature that no pictures can do it justice and Urania Villas is one such space. Find out for yourself June 2025!
