ILLUMINATE YOUR PATH

A Holistic Yoga Retreat

Step into spring at this joy filled day exploring wellness. With a waterfall view, we'll replenish our bodies with yoga & mindful breathing inside the Blank Park Zoo Discovery Center. Our meditation will take us on a journey through the Zoo to ultimately lead us to our true nature.

This refreshing retreat will nourish you from the inside out. If you want to connect with others, have fun, and free yourself from tension, then join this day where YOU and all the details will be taken care of.

Be one of the few, lighthearted individuals who gets to savor this day as spots are limited to 20. Previous retreats have sold out quickly. Sign up today to enjoy a day away at Illuminate Your Path Holistic Yoga Retreat on Sunday, April 2.
