Nourish in Nature: A Weekend Yoga Retreat

Find balance this weekend!

Be supported with the gentle guidance of  Andrea Wehlann, sharing practices from Yoga (Hatha, Restorative) teachings, and guided meditations with soothing crystal bowl sounds to deepen your sense of ease.

This is a relaxing, restorative weekend including light journaling, restorative yoga and gentle Hatha. Balance is never a ‘set it and forget it’, right!  With constant changes, we learn to move with change, shift our perspective on things, and re-balance what matters, not forgetting the importance of self-care and self-awareness.

No experience with yoga or meditation is required to enjoy this retreat.  Everyone is welcome!

Meet Your Facilitator

Andrea Wehlann

Andrea’s style of teaching draws strength and compassion from her many years of service to others. From an early age she felt drawn to care for others, and continues to work as a Support Coordinator in her community. Prior to becoming a yoga instructor, she spent several years as a SSW and provided Palliative Care to those with HIV/AIDS. This same level of compassion and care will support you as she guides you towards a better understanding of the essence of yoga. Her knowledge is diverse and encompasses a broad range of experiences as both student and teacher. She completed a 350hr Hatha Yoga Certification and has experience with classical yoga, ashtanga, zen meditation and NLP-based meditation. Andrea enjoys Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, holds the title of an Usui Reiki Master and has recently become a Certified Personal Trainer. Her diverse training and knowledge of yoga philosophy will allow you to reach a new level of resilience in your own practice. Andrea is passionate about creating unique yoga events and offers workshops and classes within the community. She owns and operates Ganga Moon Yoga Studio in Beamsville. A typical class will focus on proper alignment and breath, and will leave you feeling refreshed, energized, and balanced. Andrea finds her peace in helping others realize their natural state; her combination of traditional yoga philosophy and asana practice will help you achieve yours.
