Join Alyssa Dasso and Gudrun Bjarnadottir for a 5-day, 4 night yoga retreat at Spirit Camp nestled in coastal redwoods of Mendocino. Just a few hours up the coast from the SF Bay Area, Mendocino is known for its scenic coastline, stunning redwoods, charming Victorian village architecture and vibrant arts community. It is the perfect place to escape into nature and immerse yourself in the beauty of the land. 

Our Mendocino retreat is designed as a deeply nourishing pause. Surrounded by the grounding presence of towering redwoods and the expansive energy of the Northern California coastline, participants are invited into a rhythm that feels both restorative and awakening. Nature plays an essential role in this experience — the stillness of the forest and the vastness of the ocean help create the conditions for reflection, clarity, and renewal.

The purpose of this retreat is to create space — physically, emotionally, and mentally — so participants can hear themselves more clearly. Through daily movement practices, guided self-inquiry, meditation, and meaningful group connection, we help people peel back the layers of stress, expectation, and old patterns. When those layers soften, what often emerges is a deeper sense of self-trust, courage, and aliveness.

This retreat is for individuals who feel there is “more” available to them in life — more clarity, more presence, more connection — and who are ready to explore that in a supportive and intentional environment.
