While yoga can help us feel better at the end of a class, it can also do so much more!

Yoga can help us handle uncertainty, face our fears, and to feel safe in ourselves and confident that we can handle what life brings. 

In this retreat we will discover how!

Explore how yoga asana, pranayama, meditation, self-inquiry, and more help us cultivate 5 pillars of resilience so we can face life’s challenges more gracefully and recover more skillfully.

Learn the theory and science behind how these techniques expand our resilience physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually and put the techniques into practice.

Daily practice sessions and workshops are designed to help yoga students who wish to get more of yoga’s benefits in their daily life and to help yoga teachers better understand the resilience building aspects of yoga so they can share them with their students.

Yoga teachers are eligible for 20 continuing education contact-hours through Yoga Alliance.

Nothing is certain or guaranteed in life but we can focus on what we can control…ourselves! We can strengthen our relationship with ourselves and our minds so we can better self-regulate and ride the waves of life with greater ease.

Join us for an intentional week of connection, practice, study, and play designed to help us elevate our yoga, our resilience, our consciousness, and our lives.

Together we rise!

Who is Monica

“I love to share yoga by combining my Western & Eastern trainings to create a blend of the modern Western scientific, psychological, physiological, therapeutic, & functional aspects of yoga with yoga’s more traditional holistic, spiritual, and energetic expressions.

I aim to help people advance their yoga practice by taking it off the mat and into their daily lives to become free from external and internal limits so they can realize their true nature.  

I believe yoga is a self-psychology technology that changes our lives by shifting our identity & reality. When we live our yoga, we engage with life through a new mindset. This allows us to recognize & unwind our egoic wounds and patterns so we can rest more in our true nature that is blissful, fearless, & expansive.”

with Floripa Yoga Academy

“"I have been to many different classes with different teachers and Monica is truly the real deal. She is warm, friendly, genuinely nice and passionate about yoga and about her students having a positive experience. ​ The class was adapted really nicely to meet all the levels who were present (one person's first time through to a very experienced yogi) without judgment in a truly positive energetic way.I learnt some new poses or twists on poses and mainly I thoroughly enjoyed the vibe that Monica created in class, with her own authentic style.This, for me, is what yoga is about: a full body, mind and soul experience of balance, healing, connection, strength and energetic peace."!“
Sally Nilsson
“She provides such a safe space to explore­­ your core values, struggles, hopes, and dreams…all with unending patience, understanding, and sincerity. I don’t know how she does it, but somehow a-ha moments come easier to me when I'm with her. She really provides the best environment for you to connect to your inner wisdom and light, and that is a very special gift. I highly recommend studying with Monica, and I can’t wait to learn with her again!“
