A weekend dedicated to cultivating stillness, and cracking open our hearts.

The spectacular Sanctuary Retreat provides fertile ground for serenity, sacredness, and stillness. When you couple that with the powerful and ancient practices of yoga and meditation; add the transcendent sounds of gongs and singing bowls; sprinkle with an afternoon of creative expression; and top it all off with an intentional cacao ceremony; heart-opening becomes inevitable.

When all of this occurs during the full moon, magic happens.

(Also worth mentioning - the food is next level good!!!)

This weekend will be lovingly hosted by Rose & Kellie, both passionate about sharing tools to help you access stillness and open your heart. Rose shares from the school of Hridaya Yoga, a deeply heart-based approach which draws on teachings from traditional Yoga as well as Sufism and Zen Buddhism. Kellie shares from the lineage of Kundalini Yoga, a powerful energy based system that uses breathwork, movement & sound to crack you open from the inside out.

Whilst both systems are powerful in their ability to uncover deep peace within, they are shared in a kind and gentle way, allowing you to meet the practice where you are at.

Rose & Kellie are both committed to ensuring their classes are accessible to everyone, and also know that a subtle, gentle practice can be equally as powerful as a dynamic, intense practice. The opportunity will exist in each session to take the approach that feels most nourishing to you in that moment.

This retreat is open to everyone, no prior experience in meditation or yoga is necessary. In fact, this will be a beautiful opportunity to explore several different approaches to yoga if you are new to practicing.

There is no need to be fit or flexible as all classes will be catered to everyone. However, the grounds of The Sanctuary are steep in parts so it may not be appropriate if you have injuries or physical limitations to walking on steep uneven ground. Please reach out to discuss if you have any questions or concerns about this. Please also let us know if you are pregnant, have epilepsy, mental health challenges or heart conditions so we can make sure that all practices (especially the breathwork practices) are safe for you.
