Location

Nestled up against the Mt. Hood National Forest and seated on 40 private, peaceful acres. Enjoy scenery for days, in this gentle rolling landscape adorned with a stunning panoramic view of Mt. Hood. Absorb the abundant serenity as you journey from acquaintance to friend, understanding to integration, student to teacher, and growth to fruition. These internal shifts beautifully correspond to the visual seasonal changes you'll experience throughout your stay. From the vibrant colourful burst of wildflowers, shedding of fall leaves to coat the ground, or new crystal snow, the innate beauty within and around you overflows like a fresh natural spring in this immersive, transformational experience.

Instructors

Shannon

Shannon began her yoga journey in 2003. Her love for Bikram yoga accelerated her undeniable calling to become an instructor. She completed her 500-hour training at BYCI Headquarters in 2004 to eventually begin the process of pursuing her wildest dream of opening the first yoga studio in her most cherished community of The Dalles, Oregon. She later went on to open a second studio in Hood River. Today she has a variety of certifications in many different styles, has started a non-profit kids yoga program in schools & also enjoys teaching at Google, the local jail, schools & both of her studios.

Amie

Amie's interest in yoga began in 2006 while investigating methods to control severe back pain. Although she didn't instantly love hot yoga, Amie did love the pain relief that a consistent hot yoga practice awarded her. The physical benefits of yoga were obvious to Amie but what unfolded was a deeper practice of self-observation and connectivity. In the summer of 2010, Amie completed a 200-hour teacher training at CorePower Yoga in Portland, OR, and has been teaching classes at Pure Yoga ever since.

Samantha

Sam has been practising yoga on the mat near and far since 2001. In 2015, an Ashtanga class got her attention which ultimately led Sam to complete her 200 and 500 hours of teacher training in Ashtanga vinyasa and the 8 limbs of yoga. You will likely find Sam next to you taking a yoga class and her favourite posture is laghu vajrasana (little thunderbolt in Sanskrit). Sam is also trained and certified in Yoga Nidra.
