With Christy Brown and Ango Sara Tashker
July 26-29 (Friday-Monday)

All levels welcome.

Cultivating complete and compassionate presence of body and mind through Vinyasa Yoga, Yin Yoga and Zen practice, we actualize our true body and our true self as our life expression.

Join us for a weekend devoted to integrating the vital yet calming practice of Vinyasa and Yin Yoga with the wisdom and compassion of Zen insight. Together, cultivating presence of body and mind through these parallel practices, we can wake up to the gift of this human life. Through yoga, meditation, dharma discussion, and ample unstructured time to enjoy the wilderness and natural hot springs of Tassajara, we can find the depth and joy of retreat practice and nourish the basis for taking our practice of presence out of the yoga studio and meditation hall and into our daily lives.

Retreat fee: $240 ($204/member)
