Oh the times they are a changing...

Due to the closure of many amazing studios I called home and nested in, I have been nudged into a new and RIGHT direction towards my dreams.  I have envisioned one day owning a retreat center to help bring people back to nature and offer them services to aid them in unveiling the clarity, vision and insight that they seek to bridge a connection to their hearts where healing and balance can occur for their highest good.  

With these changing times, I have been positioned to look at where I am at, the resources available to me, and how I can make the most of them while still serving my purpose and passion in life.  I realize, for a few years now, I have been nested at a place that is a gift and has much to offer people.  So why not offer more opportunities here for the people to connect and root into the earth for the support that they need?

This place, located only 10 minutes from Batavia, 15 minutes from Geneva, 20 minutes from Saint Charles, and 30 minutes from Naperville, has been home to my summer offerings in aerial yoga for going on 3 seasons now, but it is time to expand upon those offerings and spread my wings even further to encompass more avenues of connection and healing.

See below for the upcoming opportunities to join me here and stay tuned for more on the horizon!

Rooted to Our Earth

This campout is created around the intention of grounding our energy back into ourselves and our true nature.  To become quiet with nature in order to hear her messages for your heart and to remember how to hold space for that little girl inside that knows how to move her body playfully and lightly upon the earth.
