A DAY AT CAMP
This is a sample day of everything that will be offered to you at camp. Yoga Camp is full of exciting classes, workshops and activities, and offers much more than yoga. You can participate in as much as you'd like while taking as much down time as you need. If lying on the dock with your book and basking in the sun is what you need that is what you will do.
​
We offer amazing workshops to enhance the experience. Below are a list of some of the workshops we've offered in the past and plan to offer this summer, but the list is subject to change!

WORKSHOPS & CLASSES
MovNat
Tap into your Primal Strength with Genya Klaimen
This MovNat (Natural Movement) class is all about reconnecting with your natural human movement potential. MovNat is grounded in fundamental human movements that are practical in day-to-day life, adaptable to everybody, and energetically efficient. The fascinating fact is that natural movement comes beautifully to all Human Beings!
During our session, you will build your strength through functional movement and feel stronger in your body.
MovNat is a playful, non-competitive way to be fit to reduce stress and improve immune function.
​
It is a safe system for improving your natural movement, gaining more confidence in the way you show up in life, and deeply knowing that you can face whatever life throws at you.
Barre with Morgan Cowie
This is not your average barre class. Combining elements of Pilates, yoga, dance, rhythm and movement training, this unique class encourages healthy ranges of movement and focuses on some of the aspects of movement that aren’t always emphasized in yoga class (but are super helpful). Suitable for all levels.
Vinyasa Yoga with Taranee Ponjani
A creative and dynamic form of yoga that links breath with yoga asana (body posture). Sequences are created to build strength, increase flexibility, and tune into your body’s natural rhythm. It can be experienced as a moving meditation.
Body Control and Partner Play Abel Albanes
Join us for an intuitive session, which will strengthen your body and reset your mind. We will explore body weight movements, dynamic partner play, locomotion on the ground and various breathing techniques. Appropriate for all skill levels, this class will reset tension and teach you how to get stronger without the traditional quantitative focus on sets and reps. You will leave with new tools and ideas for moving your body with other people. In this class you'll also learn recovery methods after stressful days and a sense of physical connection to other peoples bodies.
Fascial Flow with Simone Nitzan
Fascia creates a web of connections throughout the body and is the glue that holds the body together. It is what gives the body shape and stores tension pulling the body into different postural patterns.
​
This class will take you through a series of movements to get the fascia moving. Through these movements, your fascia will become more limber and be able to bounce, stretch and glide more easily and prepare the body for various yoga postures. Your downward dog may never feel the same again!
Yin Yoga with Carla Interior
Yin yoga is a practice of letting go and surrendering to the earth. It is a passive practice that involves seated and supine postures typically held for 3-5 minutes which allows us to access deeper layers of our myofascia and remodel the body.
Mindfulness Meditation with Simone Nitzan
Mindfulness meditation is the practice of bringing one’s awareness into the present moment. In these meditation sessions you will be guided on finding an area to keep your awareness, the inhale and exhale of the breath, a sensation in the body or the feel of the breeze on your skin . Mindfulness meditation is designed to bring you into the present moment so you can be in your life, living each moment.
Pilates with Carla Interior
All movements are initiated by your core. Building strength and flexibility in your abdominals, glutes, and back muscles will improve mobility and stability, while reducing the chances of injury. The focus of the Pilates Mat Class is to increase mind/body awareness through breath, body weight, and props.
Yoga Nidra with Simone Nitzan
Yoga Nidra means yoga sleep. In this guided meditation you will be led into the deepest states of relaxation where you are able to move beyond the limiting factors of the mind and set meaningful intentions. It is said that 1 hour of yoga nidra is comparable to 4 hours of sleep and you will leave this session feeling alive and with a residing sense of calm and internal peace.
Recovery Class with Abel Albanes
Unlock the power of recovery with our rejuvenating class at Yoga Camp! This dynamic session is designed to restore your body and mind through a blend of self-massage, breath work, and exploratory movement. Enhance your body awareness with targeted exercises, and discover the joy of movement in a supportive and playful environment. Whether you're looking to unwind, recharge, or simply have fun, our recovery class offers the perfect opportunity to nurture your well-being and leave you feeling revitalized.
Restorative Yoga with Simone Nitzan
These classes are aimed at bringing the body into a place of stillness and ease. These classes are designed to bring total relaxation to the participants and to leave them feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Using a variety of props, pillows, blankets and blocks the participants are placed into fully supported yoga postures which allow their bodies to release into the support beneath them.
Adventures in Motion is a co-creation between myself and Carla Interior. It is a complete body, mind and spirit experience that provides the container through which our students can explore their physical, mental and emotional bodies. Those who practice with us say their bodies have never felt better, even when on retreat and practicing daily. They tell us they have more clarity in their minds and feel more connected to their purpose.
​
Adventures in Motion is about preparing the body for complex movements. Starting from the inside and moving outwards, awakening, harnessing and mobilizing so that we can move into more complex shapes. It's also about integrating philosophy and spirituality into the practice, recognizing that there is no separation between body, mind and spirit.

This is a practice that has the power to bring you back to the present moment. Join Taranee Ponjani in this beginner-friendly workshop where you will learn the checkpoints necessary to achieve the perfect handstand line, various bail-out techniques to ensure a safe landing, and other inversion options to get you comfortable with being upside down!
Elemental Breathwork with Genya Klaiman
Elemental Rhythm Breathwork Experience is a process that combines various elements to guide the participant to a deeper state of self-awareness.
Many people who experience ERBE say it is one of the most impactful or transformational experiences of their lives. It is very safe (science has proven this time and time again) however it is not to be taken lightly! It’s best done on an empty stomach and in a comfortable position lying down so make sure to bring a yoga mat. Some extra things that can add to the experience are a small pillow, light blanket, journal, and eye mask, however, all you really need is yourself and an open mind.
