The Mini Manifestation Workshop - Energy Medicine Yoga

Saturday September 19, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am EDT

Mountain Top

Energy Medicine Yoga® is an integrative practice, uniting the ancient healing methods of energy medicine and the time-honored tradition of yoga. This magical union works to align and balance the body’s nine energy systems that form the foundation of our health.Classic yoga postures are interwoven with ancient traditional healing modalities including working with the meridian system, tapping, self-massage, holds to calm and regulate the body’s stress responses, and much more. These techniques are your gateway to communicating with the body in its own language, activating its natural healing intelligence. By focusing on your body as pure energy, you are empowered to transform and flow through life radiant and vibrant.

In the mini manifestation workshop we will explore our Sankulpa, or heartfelt desire/intention and work to find your personal Sankulpa.

You will discover reasons that we often struggle to manifest our desires and learn techniques to support manifestation. The workshop will include a lecture and journaling, followed by a short movement practice that incorporates the manifestation techniques.

Outdoor Joy Nature Immersion

Saturday September 19, 2026 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT

Mountain Top

Nature is all around us, offering life, breath, and quiet support each day. Join us for a mindful outdoor experience at the beautiful mountain of Powder Ridge, where we will explore the forest and landscape through slow, intentional walking and moments of stillness. In this practice, the landscape becomes our guide as we slow down, pause, tune in, and offer reciprocity to the more-than-human world.

By immersing ourselves in the surrounding beauty of nature, we create space to settle into presence. This gentle, grounding experience offers a moving meditation—an opportunity to soften the pace of daily life, release pressure, and reconnect with a sense of inner wisdom and clarity. Join me at the mountain for an hour of mindful outdoor meditation, allowing yourself to be held by the land and the moment.

IMPORTANT: This class meets on the Mountain Top next to the Pavillion.

Reclaiming Pleasure in Your Body through Somatic Healing

Sunday September 20, 2026 8:30am - 9:30am EDT

Mountain Top

Pleasure is the lubricant of life and also one of the most potent tools we can use to connect to our power and purpose. So many of us are disconnected from the frequency of pleasure in our bodies due to trauma, misinformation and stuck life force energy in our tissues. In this workshop we will journey together in a somatic healing practice to help release stagnant energy and stories inside of us to reclaim the pleasure and power that was always ours to receive.

Flow & Let Go - Get UnStuck

Sunday September 20, 2026 10:00am - 11:00am EDT

Join Kate for Flow and Let Go! We all sometimes feel stuck and weighed down by things in our lives. We hold onto that energy even when long after we need to. This class is designed to get rid of our unwanted energies. Class starts with flow style movement, warming up the body and then takes us through some deeper, longer holds, allowing the body then to release what we no longer need.
Rooted in the style of vinyasa yoga, linking breath and movement, this class is suitable for all levels. Students can expect the first half of class to be more movement and then the second half of class to be slower.
This class is designed for all levels of asana experience.

Dance the Inner Self

Sunday September 20, 2026 11:30am - 12:30pm EDT

Mountain Top

This workshop is an invitation to explore the body as sacred and wild, a space to drop out of your head and dive fully into sensation, embracing every movement and emotion as sacred. Each session blends soulful movement, somatic release, mindfulness, and playful exploration, allowing your body to become both healer and guide, moving from feeling rather than form. This is a journey of coming home to yourself through movement, music, and magic, releasing what no longer serves you and making space for new energy to flow. Here, it is not about how it looks, but how it feels.

Slow, wild, soft, fierce... every expression is celebrated, not judged. Think of it as a playground for your body and your feelings, a place where it is safe and downright empowering to feel sensual, expressive, alive, and free.

No experience is necessary, just bring an open heart, a willingness to move, and a sense of humor...because sometimes the body has other plans.

Elevated Breathing: How controlled and focused breathing can take us to new HIGHS

Sunday September 20, 2026 3:00pm - 4:00pm EDT

Mountain Top

Elevated Breath is a guided breath work experience designed to help you intentionally shift your energy using three distinct breathing techniques each inspired by the cannabis feelings of a sativa, hybrid, and indica state.
Through rhythm, pace, and breath retention, we’ll move through:
Sativa Breath
A bright, activating breath to awaken the mind, boost creativity, and elevate energy. Expect an uplifting, expansive sensation that sharpens focus and brings you into the present moment.
Hybrid Breath
A balanced, steady breath that harmonizes body and mind. This technique blends activation with grounding, creating a centered, open state that feels calm yet alert.
Indica Breath
A slow, soothing breath designed to downshift the nervous system. This technique encourages deep relaxation, release, and a full-body exhale—perfect for unwinding and settling into rest.
This class is completely accessible to all levels and requires no prior breathwork. Leave feeling clear, connected, and elevated - exactly where you need to be.
