Rafting and Yoga on the San Juan River
Wednesday, July 26th to Saturday, July 29th
Experience the magic of Southern Utah. This entirely unique spiritual wilderness retreat combines adventure, spirituality, yoga, and wilderness in a way that cannot help but create a truly transformational experience.
We will spend four days rafting the Upper San Juan River while taking daily opportunities to hike the canyons and explore the remnants of the Anasazi Empire.
Each day begins with yoga on the beach while the evenings are reserved for laughter, campfire conversations and meditation. The food is gourmet and each day will feature a series of wilderness and primitive skills lessons.
