Mountain Yoga Retreat
~ Bend of Ivy ~
A note from Bend of Ivy:
"Thanks for the thoughts for our communities and land. Please do come! BOI is fully operational. We have water, power, internet, and cell reception now. Sometimes cell reception can be spotty. There is now a travel advisory in place not a travel restriction. It will help our local economy and teams to have business return where it can."
Mountain Yoga Retreat at Bend of Ivy
November 1-3, 2024
Join us in the beautiful Blue Ridge mountains for a weekend of yoga, community, delicious food, and of course the relief, relaxation, and rejuvenation that comes from immersing ourselves in nature!
Bend of Ivy is located on 63 magical acres in Marshall, NC, near Asheville. We stay in the Lodge, a comfortable, rustically-elegant abode. We practice in an airy Pavilion, just past the property's pond and firepit, inspired by views of the majestic mountainside and the rippling Ivy River.
The land here inspires rest, connection, whimsy, release. Walking the grounds is optional... actually everything is optional, even the yoga! It's your retreat after all. You are invited to come, to be, to enjoy. :-)
Included:
● 6 healthy, deliciously indulgent meals, catered by Chef Liesl of Begonia Fine Foods
● plenty of water, tea, coffee and fruit/snacks
● 6 sessions of guided yoga sessions, including supportive modifications for all levels, restorative asana, rejuvenating breathwork, meditation, reflection, and kirtan
● a warm, welcoming community
● heart-healing laughter :-)
