• Radical Renew Retreat

    An Empowering Yoga Retreat for Women

    July 13th-15th on Gabriola Island at The Haven

    with Danielle Hoogenboom & Shivani Wells

    How often do you retreat from the chaos of daily life to nurture your body, mind and spirit? Join us for a unique retreat experience focused on celebrating your divine feminine nature, and return home renewed, rejuvenated, and empowered to stand tall in your light. We’ll gather as a supportive circle of women, to explore our shadows, bring light to the patterns that inhibit us, honour our innate feminine right to speak and be heard, and embrace all aspects of ourselves through powerful affirmation. Invoke your inner goddess through mantra and meditation, ignite and purify your body and mind through dynamic vinyasa flow classes, and soften into the sweetness of Yin yoga with gentle hands-on assists.  Connect with the quiet nature and abundant beauty of Gabriola Island by exploring incredible rock formations carved by the ocean, outdoor breath work to feel calm and centered, and walking meditations through a stone labyrinth. Uncover your strengths, rediscover the intellect of your body, rest and recharge. There will be free time to experience the local artisans market, treat yourself to an Ayurvedic Yoga Massage or receive a one-on-one Phoenix Rising Yoga Therapy session.

    Being Called Within: The Journey of Yin Yoga 9:45 – 11 ~ Class Code: DH500 ~ Yin Yoga is a still, long held seated practice that invites us to move deeply within our soft tissues and hearts.  In our tensions and shadows lay our greatest insights.  Yin shines the light of the heart on the physical and emotional darknesses we avoid.  When we open the body, mind and spirit we can fully observe our wholeness and harmony.

    Yoga in Action & Inspiring Change 11:30 – 1 ~ Class Code: DH600 ~ When does great change occur? Our yoga practice strengthens our relationship with ourselves, and calls us to move into the world with compassion, openness, flexibility, courage, and gratitude. By taking these lessons off the mat, we have the power to transform into visionaries and leaders of conscious change. This is yoga in action.

    Danielle Hoogenboom believes in the transformative powers of yoga, not only for personal healing and awareness, but for its role in healing our planet through our actions.  Inspired by the mystery of life, Danielle hopes to encourage people to experience the radiance and strength in reconnecting to their deepest truths. Like a true Gemini, she teaches a diverse schedule of weekly classes, leads workshops, owns a small sustainable yoga clothing line, grassroots fundraises and builds conscious community projects.  Danielle is grateful for the leadership and fundraising skills she has cultivated with her involvement with Off the Mat, Into the World as their Vancouver Community Leader and Yoga in Action group facilitator. She believes the beauty of yoga begins the moment we acknowledge our potential and passions in the world. Our practice is a powerful tool for personal and global change.www.lovelightyoga.com & www.leadwithlove.ca
