Retreat Recap: Paradise Valley, Arizona 2025

This past weekend kicked off our first yoga retreat of 2025 in the beautiful Paradise Valley, Arizona. Three days of nourishing our minds, bodies and souls in the desert sun. Read on for a brief recap of the experience along with a collection of photos.

April leading the Backbends workshop on day two. We always incorporate some version of a workshop at our retreats to add an element of learning and education.

Cody leading the daily cold plunge. Each day we focused on a mantra that helped keep the mind focused. The beautiful view of Camelback Mountain in the background was a huge bonus.

The group on top of Camelback Mountain! This hike is rated as hard so it was the perfect test of accomplishing something challenging while also spending time in nature.
