Join me for a weekend retreat filled with movement, inquiry, connection and magic at the beautiful and tranquil Salt Spring Centre of Yoga, BC Canada. We will be nourished with delicious food prepared by Shani Cranston, while we embrace the land and welcome the arrival of Spring. Together, we will delve into the experience of truly INHABITING ourselves. We will be held within the 5Rhythms practice, circle, writing, and land-based ceremony, with nature guiding our journey.
LOCATION
The Salt Spring Centre of Yoga was founded in 1981 by venerated master yogi Baba Hari Dass from India — the Centre is the west coast of Canada’s longest running spiritual and wellness retreat centre. A forested and farmed 69 acres of land weaves together with the stories of those transformed by it and the spirit of selfless service is sewn into every tiny detail. Salt Spring Island is a small island on the West Coast of Canada, situated between Vancouver and Victoria, BC. Arrive via 3 ferry terminals (Victoria, Vancouver, Crofton) or float plane.
