October 2018 | Poughkeepsie, NY

Our third HikeDay was a blast. This hike we chose to head to Poughkeepsie, NY. This turned out to be a 8-9mile day where we tackled various terrain. The start and the closing of the hike was we walking over the longest bridge in the world “Walkway over the Hudson” build all the way back in 1889. Once off the Bridge we trekked a few more miles through Franny Reese State Park with the fresh fall foliage covering our path with newly fallen leaves. It was gorgeous. Closing out the day with delicious food and libations at Mahoney’s Irish Pub inside the old Vassar Brewery.

Our excursion to Xinalani Retreat Center was The Yoga Adventures sixth retreat and was it memorable!

From the infamous "tribe building exercises" to howling at the moon our group sealed a bond almost immediately. But that's partly what a TYA adventure is all about.

From the mountainous and Volcanic surroundings, to the flowers hanging over Isle Verde's open-air yoga shala and to the deep-blue water of Lake Atitlan, we were impressed and in awe of its beauty.

It was time to give our community another opportunity to "Disconnect to Reconnect" within our infamous Digital Detox. After doing our research we took a chance and are so glad we booked with Pumpkin Hollow Retreat Center. What a special place! Mountains of lush forest, streams, waterfalls and the tranquility of being in nature made this experience one that our group will never forget.

Our very first retreat, it's always the most precious. Zander and I decided to give people the opportunity to experience a Digital Detox and "disconnect to reconnect" through a long weekend in the beautiful landscapes of upstate New York. This was a smashing success. We had a wonderful group of 15 students that decided to come along for a weekend full of yoga, various meditations, hiking, cliff jumping, games and connecting with other wonderful people.
