About this event

Spring Awakening Yoga Retreat

A Chill Weekend to Reset, Recharge & Reconnect

Ready to hit pause, shake off the stress, and vibe with good people in nature? Join us in beautiful Ōtaki for a weekend that’s all about slowing down and feeling good.

Here’s the sweet lineup:

🧘‍♀️ Feel-good yoga flows & guided meditations to clear your head

🌿 Real-talk workshops on mindset & self-growth

🌙 Yin yoga & Yoga Nidra for the deepest rest and reset

🥗 Plant-based kai that tastes as good as it makes you feel

🌊 Nature walks, river swims & forest hangs

🔥 Bonfire music jams, chill convos & star gazing nights

Whether you’re new to yoga or just need a break from the grind, this weekend’s all about reconnecting—with yourself, with others, and with nature.

Bring your mates or roll solo — either way, you’ll leave feeling lighter, clearer, and way more you.

Limited spots – don’t sleep on it. Let spring wake you up. ✨

The accommodation is furnished and heated, featuring minimalist single-sex rooms.
