Wild + Renew:A Spring Yoga + Wellness Retreat
Wild + Renew: A Spring Yoga + Wellness Retreat
Wild & Renew: A Spring Yoga + Wellness Retreat is a long-weekend immersion designed to reconnect you with nature, your body, and your inner rhythm. Held at the breathtaking River Mountain Retreat in Everett, PA, this experience invites you to step away from the noise of daily life and into a space of grounding, awakening, and renewal. Spring is nature’s season of rebirth - and this retreat honors that energy through intentional practices, community, and time in the mountains.
Throughout the weekend, you’ll explore daily yoga, meditation, and breathwork designed to support both energy and ease. Workshops rooted in Ayurvedic seasonal wellness, herbal crafting, and nature immersion will help you deepen your understanding of how to live in alignment with spring’s rhythm. Restorative practices, sound healing, free time to wander or rest, and moments of celebration weave together a balanced, nourishing retreat experience.
You’ll be held by the land as much as the programming - with cozy accommodations, sweeping views, fresh mountain air, and opportunities to unwind in hammocks, gather around campfires, or simply let yourself be still. Optional add-ons like massage therapy and Ayurvedic consultations allow you to personalize your experience even further.
Whether you’re seeking clarity, rest, inspiration, or reconnection, Wild & Renew offers a supportive and expansive container to return to yourself. Come as you are - leave grounded, refreshed, and rewilded.

About your HostS
Victoria Khersonsky
Victoria is a yoga teacher, herbalist, naturalist, and mom of three. She balances her tech career at Meta with a deep connection to nature and a grounded approach to wellness. She’s currently completing her training as a Holistic Ayurveda Counselor, learning how mind–body–spirit patterns shape daily life and how simple shifts—through food, habits, breath, and awareness—can make people feel more balanced and supported.
A member of the YogaSix community for years, Victoria is certified in teaching Vinyasa yoga and has additional training in teaching Beginners, Yin, and Prāṇāyāma. Her classes blend somatic awareness, nervous-system calming practices, and spacious, intentional movement. Her teaching helps people slow down, drop into presence, and reconnect with what’s real in their bodies.
Outside the studio, Victoria spends much of her time in the natural world — gardening, foraging, identifying plants and mushrooms, and crafting small-batch herbal medicines. She enjoys helping others notice and understand what’s around them and how these connections can support their overall wellbeing.
She’s excited to co-lead this retreat at River Mountain because it brings together the things she values most: nature, community, calm, and genuine reset. Her hope is that everyone leaves feeling clearer, steadier, and more at home in themselves.
Mary Ann Carney
Mary Ann is an uplifting and creative yoga instructor whose teaching is fueled by a deep passion for community, connection, and personal transformation. Inspired by the growth she witnesses in her students, she leads every practice with intention, authenticity, and an open heart.
A 500-hour RYT certified teacher through Yoga Alliance with advanced training from YogaSix South Hills, Mary Ann specializes in Vinyasa and Yin Yoga.

Grounded in the benefits of mindfulness, meditation, and Yoga Nidra, Mary Ann has pursued additional training in these areas and integrates them seamlessly into her offerings. She is devoted to creating supportive yet challenging spaces where students feel safe to explore stillness, personal growth, and meaningful inner transformation.
Outside the studio, Mary Ann nurtures connection through time in nature, self-care practices, movement, and quality moments with friends and family — often accompanied by long walks with her beloved golden retriever.
Join Mary Ann for an energizing, empowering, and joy-filled experience. All levels welcome — she’s grateful you’re here.

History
Warrior Path
Running parallel to River Mountain's eastern ridge is Warriors Path, the great Iroquois Indian highway from Six Nations country, New York, to the Catawba country in the Carolinas. The historic path along Sweet Root Creek was one of the longest and most heavily traveled land routes in eastern North America, connecting Indigenous peoples over hundreds of miles.
The Underground Railroad
Black Valley was an active route along the Underground Railroad. Local histories principally credit four, free black residents with leading the aid network in this area: Rev. John Fidler, Elias Rouse, Joseph Crawley, and James Graham. Just to the south of the River Mountain property are 13 unmarked graves of enslaved people who died traveling the route to freedom.
