Saugatuck Fall 2026 Retreat
"ROOT TO RISE"
October 2-4, 2026
Welcome to the "Root to Rise" Yoga Retreat" in Saugatuck, MI! Like trees, we rise by our roots. "Root to Rise" is a weekend of grounding, renewal, and gentle expansion - an opportunity to draw strength from stillness and nourishment from connection.
Step away from the noise and return to what sustains you. "Root to Rise" is a weekend of reconnection- to your body, your breath, and the quiet wisdom within. Through grounding yoga practices, nourishing meals, mindful stillness, and nature's rhythm, you'll create space to rest deeply and rise renewed.

"As the world becomes
flooded with
computerized
everything,
we need to return to
the basics more than

Earth. Writing.
Connection. Breath.
Authentic love.
Community. Vitality.
Ritual. Heart. Soul."

Sample Itinerary
The sample itinerary offered below is a general idea of how the days will flow. We will be flexible based on the weather and other factors. All offerings are accessible to all levels, and none are mandatory. Combined, they work together to balance mind, body, and spirit. You can choose them based on your needs to find balance and peace. You can be as busy or as reflective as you need to be based on your journey and goals, which may include resting or trying something new.
Unscheduled time, *Mindful Moments, can be spent resting, in quiet reflection, walking, socializing, reading, exercising, writing, or meditating. We will honor a dedicated quiet space for those in need of serenity. There is no one agenda for finding your balance. It is all up to you...
Your adventure awaits!
I look forward to meeting you.
