EVOLUTIONARY YOGA RETREATS

WOMEN’S RENEWAL and DANA DAMARA EVOLUTION YOGA TT IMMERSIONS

When we align ourselves with the moon and it’s natural cycles, we can’t help but create magic within ourselves and in our life. When you commit to transformation, there’s really nowhere to go but spiraling up. That is what you will get when you attend an Evolutionary Yoga Retreat with Dana Damara.

She unites all her passions: yoga, music, energy healing, Astrology, essential oils, Oracle card readings, sound healing, Goddess and Shakti practices, and connection with other amazing practitioners, to deliver a unique experience.

We explore the world and keep our destinations to those spaces that offer the highest and most potent energy vortices on the planet. Why? Because when we align with Mother Earth, we align with all that is. Each venue offers space to create, connect, and visualize your life as it was meant to be lived.

Additionally, we offer yoga for all levels, dance, meditation, connection with nature, healthy food, and offerings from like-minded individuals on the same path as you. And finally, each of Dana’s retreats include hours toward her 300-Hour Embody Truth Teacher Training programs. Keep track of your hours and training, and you could be looking at an epic retreat, unbeatable connection, realignment with source and hours toward your yoga teacher training certificate.

RETREAT AND YOGA TRAINING IMMERSION

All retreats include an evolutionary yoga study and training immersion. You’ll dive deep into a daily practice that will re-connect you with the pulse and rhythm of your infinite heart. Designed for all levels of practitioners, we invite you to join us on the path. This path is one that is always available, ever changing, and consistently up-leveling our connection to who we are at a soul level.

Attendees will have an opportunity to meditate, practice, study, explore, connect, play and most importantly, rest and realign with their essence. Participation will earn 30-50 training hours for Dana’s 300/500 hour program or as continuing education credits.

WE’LL EXPLORE:

Transformative alchemy through asana, meditation, essential oils, and ritual
Daily meditation and yoga classes - Morning vinyasa yoga, evening restorative classes
