Join Isha Hatha Yoga certified instructors (who have had nearly 2,000 hours of training) for a week of mobility and purification. Isha Hatha Yoga is a profound science for allowing the body and mind to reach their peak potential. It is classical hatha yoga in its purest form, which is taught in a non-competitive environment.

PRACTICE 1: Upa Yoga - relaxation, balance, mobility
