Eight transformational days await you on Hawaii’s Big Island!

Immerse yourself in daily Iyengar yoga, meditation, pranayama, and sutra studies while the Pacific Ocean stretches endlessly before you. Between practice sessions, float in the infinity pool suspended above crashing waves, surrender to the ancient healing art of traditional Lomilomi massage, and explore lush coastal trails that wind through tropical forest before descending to hidden ocean coves.

This isn’t just a yoga retreat, it’s a complete immersion in island magic where rigorous practice meets pure paradise. Volcanic sunsets. Warm trade winds. The kind of deep restoration that only happens when you truly step away from everything. Memorial Day week will never be the same.

Journey beyond the physical into yoga’s energetic dimension, where breath becomes the bridge between body and consciousness.

We’ll begin with restorative asanas designed to quiet your body and calm your nervous system, creating the optimal foundation for subtle work. From this settled state, we’ll explore pranayama as our primary tool for accessing the energetic body, the intricate network of energy channels (nadis), vital centers (chakras), layers of being (koshas), and the five vayus (directional flows of prana that govern everything from digestion to thought).

Escape to a hidden corner of Japan few Westerners ever see.

Join Koren for eight transformative days on a secluded island in the Seto Inland Sea, where ancient tradition meets profound stillness.

Wander the timeless streets of Mitarai, an exquisitely preserved geisha village, and immerse yourself in hands-on cultural workshops led by local artisans.

This is more than a retreat, it’s a portal to the Japan of your imagination, guided by someone who knows its secrets intimately.

Learn how breath awareness enhances alignment, releases tension, and brings consciousness to areas of holding.
