Awaken in the Wild
Yin Yoga & Hiking Retreat

Set just a short distance from USA's most breathtaking national parks, national forests and national monuments! This retreat is designed to blend mindful Yin Yoga practice, nature, rest, and adventure to give you a whole hearted feeling for the PNW!

For six days together, we’ll move through grounding yoga practices, moments of stillness, moderate to intermediate hikes, ample time in nature, and shared experiences that cultivate connection — both within ourselves and with the surrounding landscape.

Late October in the Pacific Northwest is a magical time of year. Mist drifts through ancient forests, autumn colors deepen, and the pace of the season gently encourages us to turn inward. It’s the perfect setting to unplug, restore your energy, and immerse yourself in the quiet rhythm of nature.

Awaken in the Wild Washington State

Awaken in the Wild: Yin Yoga & Hiking Retreat is located in the center of Gifford Pinchot National Forest!

Accommodations at Cispus Center

Our retreat home is nestled deep within the peaceful wilderness of the Gifford Pinchot National Forest at the welcoming and rustic Cispus Learning Center.

Surrounded by towering evergreens, mountain air, and the gentle sounds of the forest, this retreat space offers a simple and grounding environment that allows you to fully unplug and reconnect with nature. The property sits in the heart of the forest, with miles of trails, rivers, and wild landscapes just steps from your door.

Accommodations are comfortable and lodge-style, designed to foster both rest and community. Guests stay in cozy shared double wide trailers with bathroom(s) and a full kitchen as well as laundry! It’s the perfect setting for slowing down, breathing deeply, and embracing the beauty of living close to the land.

The Cispus Center offers expansive grounds for yoga practice, quiet forest walks, and gathering in community. With the vast wilderness of the Pacific Northwest surrounding us, each day invites exploration, reflection, and the simple joy of being immersed in nature.

This retreat is an opportunity to experience the Pacific Northwest in its most authentic form — grounded, wild, and deeply restorative.

*** Please be aware that there is no phone service or network once we enter the national forest as well as at the Cispus Center. Each trailer is equipped with Wifi.

With your Trailers internet connection you will be able to send texts use socials or make any phone/video calls while inside the trailer or near the Wifi server box.

For the Awaken in the Wild: Yin Yoga & Hiking retreat it is encouraged that all classes and workshops be a cellphone free environment.

This way we can further our connection with the surrounding nature as well as have that slight detox we all crave from our devices.

Having your phone for all other adventures is totally okay and welcomed. You will most defiantly want photos of the beauty you will witness when you book this retreat!
