Yin Yang Retreat: a peaceful and invigorating weekend getaway with Maria and Glo
“Yoga is the study of balance, and balance is the aim of all living creatures: it is our home.” – Rolf Gates
Escape to the woods for a weekend, disconnect from city life and connect to your mind body and heart. There will be outdoor yoga, communal vegetarian dinners, bonfires, swimming, nature walks, and time to turn inwards and reflect.

Yoga has helped her find balance and a peace of mind along with a beautiful community in Bushwick.
Glo is a yoga teacher and thai bodywork practitioner.
