Hi I'm your host Maegan, a playful spirit who is committed to sharing the practice of yoga in a thoughtful and curious way. I enjoy energizing morning practices, calm reflective evening practices and tying it all together with a connection to my breath. You can expect my classes to be anatomically informed, grounded and breath focused, with mini meditations to close. I'm looking forward to connecting with you in nature, embracing slower rhythms and playful adventures.

The retreat was a joyous experience! Such a peaceful environment with wonderful people. Really enjoyed the relaxing yoga and would like more yoga time and a bit more intensity next retreat. The food was incredible! Thank you for sharing such special place. Looking forward to next year!! Truly appreciate you.

I’d like to express my sincere gratitude for the incredible weekend you and your team put on for us. You nailed every detail. You and Courtney were able to hold the space for our physicality, learning edge and need for nurturing throughout. Your gift of quiet leadership was beautiful to watch and bask in.
Much respect
