Join Balanced Rock for WildYoga 100-Hour Immersion
Our 3-week, in-person program begins November 1, 2021. SPACE IS LIMITED as we follow COVID precautionary guidelines.
November 1-19, 2021
The WildYoga Immersion is a small, intimate program designed to fit your needs and is flexible to all levels of yoga experience. As we come together in community, the program combines restorative time in nature as well as the opportunity to reconnect with and invigorate your yoga practice.
Take it as a relaxing retreat, a chance to commit deeply to your practice, or as a step towards Yoga Teacher Certification.
This will be the first time we gather to practice at the new, exclusive Yosemite Moonstone Retreat. Adjacent to the yoga studio there are a limited set of luxurious rooms available to participants on a first-come-first-serve basis.
