In this eight hour workshop series, Rixie shares her 15 years of retreat-leading experience to guide yoga teachers and thought leaders in constructing get-aways that make an impact (because soon enough, we'll be packing bags and traveling again!). The workshop will focus on a sequential method for success: exploring and discovering the true purpose and passion that fuels a retreat; setting an intention for the retreat of your dreams; getting down to ever-changing basics of creating community that will support a retreat, noticing how this is changing every day); and examining all the ways that space for a weekend or even a week is different than a 90-minute class.

Rixie will help participants answer all the important detailed questions of who your audience is, what the weekend will include, where an appropriate destination might be, and how it all ties together.

As part of her dharma and passion at Mandala Healing Arts and Sun & Moon Yoga, Rixie has been attending retreats since 1993 and leading three local and international retreats per year since 2005, has served on the Board of Directors of the Feathered Pipe Ranch, Helena, Montana from 2014-2018, and currently serving on the Board of Trustees (2018) for the Sevenoaks Retreat Center, Madison, Virginia. She loves to create, theme and sit in the seat of the teacher and observe the magic happen all weekend.

This workshop will provide 8 YACEP CEUs.
