Thursday, September 26 - Sunday, September 29, 2024
Join Kate for a long weekend under the big sky of the high-desert oasis of Marfa, Far West Texas. We’ll gather for an extended weekend designed to support you in feeling deeply nourished, attuned to your highest visions, and vibrantly renewed by the quietude of this land and the connections inherent to gathering in intentional community.
Throughout this thoughtfully curated weekend, you’ll experience daily yoga and meditation practices, yoga nidra and sound baths, radiance-inducing meals (yes!) prepared with seasonal, flavorful, colorful ingredients by my soul sister, Alexandra Poer, and myriad optional experiences including hikes in this high-desert landscape, visiting local, inspired art installations, star gazing, and more. I’m thrilled to spend this time with you during what I am certain will be a profoundly nourishing and rich experience for us all.
Space is limited. If you plan to join us, we encourage you to book your spot and your hotel as soon as possible.
