If you love yoga but your practice has hit a plateau… If you love your practice but you miss being with like-minded people... If you love teaching but you need a little TLC and inspiration… then you’re gonna love spending time drinking from the well of White Lotus Yoga in a week designed just for you.  Take your practice to a new level, replenish your knowledge base, take time to reflect and go deeper.  The days will be beautifully balanced with asana, pranayama and meditation, nurtured by the surrounding exquisite, natural environment and the bounty of gourmet vegetarian meals.  We will inquire as a yogic community by practicing asanas in their simplicity and complexity. We will make time for the asana, your seat, by exploring sitting as an energy cultivation. We will celebrate with yoga at rest, yoga at play, and in the magic of council we will look at yoga as community and yoga in the community.  This and so much more.  Come participate in a week devoted to your well being.

Join us for a final Summer send off weekend.  Iccha, Kriya and Jnana, the triangular principals of Yoga practice will be invoked.  Iccha is will or intent, Kriya is the act itself and Jnana is knowledge, wisdom or insight.  But the real question is… Will you be here?  Can you get your act together to get out of town?  And, do you have the wisdom to treat yourself to one final fabulous Summer weekend of asana, pranayama, meditation, gourmet vegetarian food and fun?
