Yoga Retreat
with Jenny, Silke, & Zoe
BLOOM & BALANCE
A Spring Yoga Retreat Surrounded by Scenic Wonders
2026, March 27-29 at Snail's Place near DeSoto State Park, AL
Join us for a relaxing weekend of yoga and nature. This is a gentle invitation to reconnect, recharge, and restore in the rustic beauty of Snail’s Place in Fort Payne, AL.
This retreat is intentionally small and intimate, more like a private gathering among friends than a large retreat. The cozy setting allows for personal connection, shared laughter, and a supportive sense of community. You will have the opportunity to step away from daily responsibilities and intentionally slow down. You are invited to move gently, breathe deeply, and experience a variety of yoga and self-care practices at this idyllic retreat, located just five minutes from the stunning DeSoto State Park.
SCHEDULE
Our retreat will include a mix of gentle yoga, meditation, guided hikes, mindful movement, and shared meals throughout the weekend.
Friday begins with arrival from 4–6 pm, settling in, and an opening circle, followed by dinner and a restorative evening practice. On Saturday afternoon, we will enjoy a special session at a rented yoga studio, in addition to morning practices, outdoor yoga and exploration, and free time. Sunday will continue with morning practice, optional activities, and reflection, and the retreat concludes on Sunday at 2 pm.
The final schedule will be shared at the retreat, allowing for flexibility and flow with the group.
No yoga experience is necessary to attend, and all activities are completely optional—whether you’d like to sleep in, take an extra-long hike, or simply rest, you are welcome to choose what feels best for you.
