Art Retreat  

“I believe that art and yoga can be incredibly transformative therapies. As an artist and yoga teacher, I have witnessed first-hand the incredible changes that can happen when people integrate art and yoga into their lives. I have seen people move through feelings of stuckness, anxiety, depression, and fear to a place of greater balance, clarity, and joy. That’s why my husband Erling and I decided to create a retreat called, – A Transformative Journey to Balance. 

This retreat is designed to help people tap into the healing power of art and yoga to create transformation in their lives. Through artmaking, yoga practice, meditation, and group discussions, retreat participants will be able to explore what is blocking them from feeling balanced and empowered. In addition, they will learn to tap into their creative potential and develop new perspectives and insights. At the end of the retreat, participants will have created a piece of art that reflects their personal journey and gain a greater understanding of how art and yoga can be used as a tool for transformation. 

Art & Yoga 

We are excited to share our passion for art and yoga with you through this unique retreat! This retreat offers an incredible opportunity to explore the power of transformation, and we are confident that it will help participants find greater balance and joy in their lives. 

The retreat will include yoga classes, art workshops, and plenty of opportunities for relaxation and reflection. We will also provide resources for further exploration and practice in both art and yoga. We know that by combining these two powerful modalities, we can help you to find a place of inner peace, clarity, and transformation. 

We look forward to sharing this journey of self-discovery with you.
