Retreat Description
It's Tulip Festival season in Holland, MI!
This 4-day (Thurs night to Sunday afternoon) lakeside retreat will relax, reset and restart the mind and body in the Spring season. Using physical therapy-based yoga, each day your body will form new connections with the mind to help you understand why you move a certain way. Movement flows will be for both beginner and advanced students alike.
Vegan/ non-vegan meals will be provided for breakfast, lunch and dinner. On certain days, additional workshops will be provided to dive deeper into body specifics that are not covered in class. There will be time to go on your own excursions and take a walk on the beach.

Krystal- Krystal is a certified holistic health practitioner who focuses on helping people build strong health foundations. Her current interests include bioenergetics, emotions, stress reduction, and nutritious eating. Her passion for natural health stems from her and her husband's journey to reversing chronic illnesses. It was during this journey that she learned a lot about alternative healing modalities and how simple changes to their lifestyle made big improvements to their overall health and quality of life. Through workshops and private consultations, she hopes she can make this information more accessible to others so everyone can leave understanding that there are so many more options to healing than they realize!

How do I get there?
If you are leaving from Toledo, OH (where some attendees are located) I can connect you with a carpool.
