TAKE A TRANSFORMATIVE JOURNEY that will send you home ultimately as a more confident, versatile, and persistent writer.  The journey begins with re-membering your body as part of your creative process. What happens when we write with embodied wonder? What happens to our stories and poems when Yoga awakens our outward perception and inner gaze, our deep imagination & our deep wonder?  We’ll find the yogic means to heighten our creative faculties, heed intuitive insight, venture into creative complexity, and listen to that great voice within.

Whether you are writing a memoir, simply percolating your creative curiosity, writing poetry, writing songs & music, teaching students the art of writing, developing a scholarly book, drafting a novel, re-shaping your short stories, this retreat - THE JOURNEY FROM THE CENTER TO THE PAGE - welcomes you.  Seasoned & fresh writers alike attend these retreats and mutually benefit. Absolutely no yoga background is required. The yoga is adaptable for every body.

Register early to receive notice of the common readings in fiction, memoir, and poetry.

Includes all materials, 11 delicious catered vegetarian meals, and tasteful shared lodging.

NOTE: Limited enrollment
