About this Event
An Elemental Mini Retreat
Movement • Breath • Heat • Cold • Connection
Come meet yourself between fire & ice.
Fire & Ice is an intimate 3.5-hour mini retreat designed to bring you out of the noise of everyday life and back into the wisdom of your body.
Together, we'll journey through the elements—using movement, breath, heat, cold, and intentional connection to explore what it feels like to meet intensity without immediately needing to fight it, fix it, or run from it.
We'll begin with an accessible All-Bodies Yoga practice, grounding into EARTH through movement and sensation.
From there, we'll move into AIR with guided breathwork, using the breath to deepen awareness, reconnect with the body, and explore the space between effort and surrender.
Then we step outside.
Into FIRE.
Into WATER.
You'll have access to a beautiful private backyard spa complete with sauna, hot tub, cold plunge, and space to relax and connect.
An optional* guided cold-plunge experience will be offered for anyone who wants support meeting the cold through breath, intention, and presence.
Move through the experience in whatever way feels right for your body.
This isn't about pushing yourself harder. It's about discovering how differently we can meet intensity when we remain connected to ourselves.
