Autumn and Toni really put their heart and soul into making this a nurturing and empowering experience. The organizers stay in touch throughout the process– whether you have questions before booking; have dietary restrictions or special needs once you’ve booked; or enjoy reminders, driving directions, wellness tips, and a full information packet before the retreat. They really do make you feel valued and like family! Tipi Village is set in a delightfully rambling woodland, and the tipis are surprisingly cozy. There is a variety of yoga classes, whether you like vinyasa, roll and release, alignment workshops, sound healing, yoga nidra, restorative…there’s truly something for everyone. There is also zero pressure to do anything that does not feel aligned for you. If you’d rather dip in the hot tub or the river swimming hole, journal in an Adirondack chair, stargaze, or sip tea or wine with new friends, that’s all very much supported. My session also offered a spiritual component that was inclusive and welcoming for all– featuring a community altar and a group ritual circle to close, as well as thoughtful touches like oracle cards and crystals lovingly picked out by our hosts. Oh and the gluten free blueberry pancakes are the best. (Seriously.) It’s incredible that this retreat is offered at this affordable price point. One of the most distinctive aspects of the retreat is that it offers a safe space for women to come together and laugh, share, learn, and stretch in a warm, supportive environment. If that sort of community is calling you, this is a really great opportunity!
