Get ready for the first ever yoga HOEDOWN y'all!!!!
Labor Day Weekend - September 2nd-5th, 2011
3 days in the Berkshire Mountains, live music of all kinds, yoga, some home cookin, a magical swimming pond, campfires, about a million stars......
...
If you've never been on a "yoga retreat" or already have and just love it so, this is the place to be Labor Day Weekend. It's half yoga retreat, half live music festival, all heart and joy. The idea is to bring together a wider community of folks (including your friends that don't "do" yoga) for a weekend of good old fashioned end of summer fun. Many of the faces you already know and love will be there sharing their talents...and there will be plenty more to meet!
It's all taking place on the top of a mountain at the beautiful Abode Mountain Camp. There's a huge outdoor circus tent for the yoga classes and where musicians will play throughout the day and night. Tons of space to wander, hike and move. Plenty of time to play, rest and rejoice. The main accommodations are your tent and a limited number of private and shared cabins. Outdoor showers and actual bathrooms! And if you're not the "roughin" it type, there are also lovely B&B style accommodations just down the mountain. All your meals will be provided (vegetarian style) either way.
Are you getting excited yet? Well, check this out....
There will be multiple yoga classes of all levels every day, and here's the list of teachers!
Lady Ruth Lauer-Manenti
