Fall Equinox Yoga Retreat

A Live Your Journey Retreat
at River Mountain

SEPTEMBER 26 - OCTOBER 1, 2023

Located in the Mountains of Pennsylvania

ESCAPE TO OPEN SPACE

Return home to your body, mind and soul with a week of outdoor living, transformative yoga experiences, nourishing meals, enriching conversations (that will turn into life-long friendships), and nature-filled activities. Our Fall Equinox Yoga Retreat will take place at River Mountain, a modern, minimalist, luxury retreat center that rests on 150 acres. River Mountain is easy to access, but remote enough to unplug, disconnect and regain your center.

Pack your bags yoga fam, this is going to be an unforgettable experience!

The Fall Equinox Explained

Each year we have four powerful opportunities that align with the seasons to honor our energetic cycles and rhythms. These opportunities are the equinoxes (moments of planetary wholeness) and solstices (shortest and longest days of the year). At each of these energetic junctures, we’re invited to pause, process and plan for our next season of living -- intentionally.

The Fall Equinox is an invitation to reconnect with your body, joyously reflect on your year, release what’s not working, recommit to your intentions, and draw inward. When we say yes to this process, we’re able to return to our essence, strengthen our root system, and plant meaningful seeds for our next seasons.

Welcome to the fam, hi, I’m Allie! I’m a yoga seeker & student like you, 800 hour certified teacher, international retreat leader, founder of the best damn yoga community (the Body Mind Soul Studio), wife to my 13 year one-night-stand husband, and mama to Scarlett Rose (my newest title). 

One of my favorite ways to practice yoga with you is at our in-person Live Your Journey retreats that take place at pinch-me-is-this-real? locations. LYJ Retreats are stress-free, immersive experiences that offer thoughtfully designed teachings, built-in community, soulful on & off the mat practices, and planned-for-you experiences. We plan every detail: all you need to do is say “yes!”. 

Meet you in the mountains,

Allie, xx

Where You'll Unroll Your Mat

Prepare yourself for on & off the mat transformation (and 108 sun salutations!) that will inspire and support your next season of living. We’ll gather in the Big Red Barn or on the outdoor platforms for twice daily yoga experiences. Every class will honor the Fall Equinox and include asana, pranayama, meditation, co-journaling and some form of sharing. Mornings will be devoted to stronger sequences, while gentler, restorative movements will be reserved for the evenings. 

No matter your on-the-mat experience, you’ll feel at home with suggested props, pose variations and support from Allie and her yoga teacher team.

“It was a magical experience as she unfolded the beauty of the chakra system and delivered a perfect balance of rest and activity in Bali. Meeting Allie in person after two years of practicing yoga online was pure joy.” - Kari

Lucy_Retreats

“I attended Allie's Bali yoga retreat and was simply overwhelmed by the impact it had on my life. The chakra system really resonated with me and Allie made it so personable and easy to adopt into our everyday lives. I can honestly say I’m going to use it to guide my growth and take aligned action. Not only that, but beautiful Bali, the strong women I was surrounded with, the healthy food, the daily activities, the love and support (the list could go on...!), made for such an unforgettable, transformative retreat. I couldn't have dreamed of a better experience.  - Lucy

"Words cannot describe how transformative this retreat was for me. You think it's just going to be yoga - the physical practice, maybe some meditation, make a couple new friends, see cool shit in a part of the world you've never been to... IT IS SO MUCH MORE. Allie’s retreat literally reset my life. It was an opportunity to distance myself, clear my head, organize my priorities, connect to nature and discover reliable tools that I will use forever.” - Robyn

"Going on a Live Your Journey Retreat was one of the best experiences I've had - truly once in a lifetime! I really appreciate the intentionality of the schedule, yoga classes, reflection, and activities that were created to explore the chakra system. Traveling solo halfway across the globe to meet all new folks could be a bit nerve-wracking, but there is such great coordination and communication that I came away with so many new friends! If you're wondering if you should go, the answer is yes - attend one of these retreats!" -Teri

“Allie is so relatable, attentive, and passionate. The crowd she draws is equally as great, making you feel so welcome. Her love for what she does and her respect for being human is inspiring. Retreats are the best setting for personal growth, laughter, and peace. If you’re thinking about it, do it. I promise you won’t have regrets!” - Morgan
