YOGA & CREATIVITY JUNE 3-9, 2027
For years we have been renewing ourselves in Native Americans tribal lands. We‘ve decided to share those experiences and find the ideal location for a retreat. Ghost Ranch is a mythical place with desertic landscapes and infinite skies. Retreat will begin with dinner in Abiquiu on June 3rd. Yoga with Francois and Creativity with Nathalie daily. The week will include a stunning excursion to the best hot springs in the region and a guided tour of Georgia O’Keeffe house.
Hiking is possible during free time on Ghost Ranch canyons and trails. And final gourmet dinner in Santa Fe. After the retreat, you can visit Taos Pueblo, Canyon de Chelly, Mesa Verde, Monument Valley etc... so many powerful sites.
