Yoga Retreat and Vegetarian Cuisine with Sivakami

Hari Om Tat Sat!

The last 20 months completely changed the way Yoga for the Special Child functioned.  We went from in person courses around the world to online trainings around time zones from our homes.  We learned to Zoom.  We experimented and bought new technology.  There were bumps along the way but we have persevered and have tried to embrace these changes.

Now, it is time for us to begin to get back to some in person events!  Are you ready to treat yourself and join us?

We are extremely excited to announce a very special Yoga Retreat featuring Vegetarian Cuisine with Sivakami!  February 23-26, 2022!

We have rented an amazing home in Venice, Florida that is a short ferry ride from a private beach.  It features an outdoor tiki syle hut where we will practice yoga each day. It has a comfortable living area where we will have study and discussions.  The kitchen has a large island for us to work together to prepare Sivakami’s delicious recipes for dinner.  There are 3 kayaks and several bicycles to use during your free time.  There is a hot tub to relax in at night and a fire table to sit around (if it is cool enough for a flame!)

Space for the Retreat is being limited to 9 (max 10) overnight guests and a maximum of 11 day students.  The Retreat is for any of our students who have already attended our 95H Part 1 training.  

Also, please be aware that at this time, we are only welcoming participants that are fully vaccinated and able to provide proof of their Vaccination before their arrival. We will also be requesting a Covid test from each participant before the start of the Retreat.  Thank you in advance for your understanding.

There is SHARED lodging at this gorgeous 3 story house for 9 people (max 10).  There are 2 indoor bathrooms (and one outdoor) that will be shared by everyone.  Please read the full descriptions below before you reserve your choice.
