SUTTON Retreats

with Barrie Risman

 

Small-group retreats at my home studio are joyful and precious opportunities to immerse yourself in the life-affirming practices and perspectives of yoga with fellow sincere practitioners.

I design each retreat to propel your practice forward through a balanced schedule of postural practice, contemplative study, breath work, meditation, and Joanna Macy's time-tested, transformational group process known as the Work That Reconnects.

Join me in the pristine and charming Eastern Townships region of Quebec - minutes from the Vermont border - and return to the heart of your yoga as a practice of purposeful living and sacred connection.

You offer a sacred space where asana practice, exposure to yogic philosophy, contemplation, journaling and meditation can take place. Retreats such as yours are immensely peaceful and restorative. And, it is such a blessing and always a pleasure to meet others who are on the same journey.
