UPCOMING RETREAT
5 Days, 4 Nights
The Mercantile, McCloud, California
Join us for an immersive Ashtanga Sadhana retreat in the serene setting of McCloud, California. Nestled at the historic Mercantile hotel, this 5-day, 4-night journey offers the perfect blend of tradition, practice, and community.
Through daily Mysore-style Ashtanga practice, guided pranayama, meditation, and thoughtful workshops, we’ll deepen our connection to breath, body, and mind. Whether you’re refining your personal practice or seeking new inspiration, this retreat is designed to support all levels in cultivating inner awareness and strength.
Surrounded by the natural beauty of Mount Shasta’s foothills, we’ll balance dedicated practice with time to rest, reflect, and connect with like-minded practitioners. In addition to our time on the mat, we’ll explore the breathtaking landscapes with guided hikes to Mount Shasta — an opportunity to ground ourselves in nature and carry the practice beyond the studio.
Space is limited to 16 students, so reserve your spot today for a long weekend of transformation and renewal!
