IN Power Journey: A Yoga Retreat

Find Your Inner Peace

Refresh your mind, body and spirit during a three-day, two-night yoga retreat in a peaceful setting just outside Kansas City. We’ll be staying in a large colonial farmhouse located on five picturesque acres surrounded by hundreds of acres of farmland on rolling hills.

This retreat is for anyone with an interest in personal growth and exploration. No yoga experience is required; all our sessions will be taught to all levels. Yin and power styles will be offered, as well as an off-site excursion to Weston Bend State Park for a nature hike and a chakra workshop with a healing arts expert.

In addition to yoga, meditation, and inquiry you’ll enjoy community with like-minded yogis as well as delicious, macro-friendly, and nourishing meals and snacks prepared daily, featuring dinners from KC’s own Cafe Gratitude.

When:

4 p.m. Friday, September 27 through 11 a.m. Sunday, September 29.

Where:

Near Dearborn, Missouri, about 20 minutes north of Kansas City International Airport. Our home base for the retreat is The Journey Home, just far enough from busy city life and only an hour’s drive from our studio at IN Power.

What’s included:

All meals (2 dinners, 2 breakfasts and 1 lunch), snacks, electrolytes, water, coffee, and tea. Linens and towels, and transportation during the retreat, plus gifts: The Four Agreements book by Don Miguel Ruiz, a journal to take notes in, and a water bottle. IN Power merchandise will be available for purchase.

What’s not included:

Transportation to and from the venue at the start and end of the retreat. Alcohol and other substances. While soap and shampoo are provided by the rental property, you’re encouraged to bring your own to suit personal tastes.
