Testimonials

Eco Yoga Day Hikes

“It was a great reminder of what I do already without knowing it. This helped me to STOP and do it consciously! The forest breathed I breathed, the wind blew a big breath through me!"    ~Kristi Beetch, local naturalist and guide

“I found the combination of group and solitude and given focused point which allowed me to let go and experience being in this world."                                                                                ~Connie Brill, Drama Teacher, Banff Centre

Eco Yoga Retreats

“At the end of day two, you had asked to describe the weekend in one word…I am still trying to find the one word that would do this. When asked “how was my retreat?” I am in awe and at a loss for words although I can’t stop thinking and/or talking about it…the experience was like none other and truly amazing. It really is not an experience that is spoken as much as it is felt.”
~Yvonne Moorehead, Eco Yoga Retreat 2008

“I just wanted to send an email to thank you Ronna again for a wonderful retreat weekend! You have made my 1st retreat an amazing experience and one that certainly raises the bar for any future retreats I attend! You are sincere, present, qualified, energized and fun and provide a beautiful environment where we can focus on our own awareness and grow spiritually in a matter of days. This experience is one I will always remember."                                                 ~Jaclyn Robertson, Eco Yoga Retreat 2008

“There were so many highlights... everyday brought something new and uniquely special. The walking meditations, the sit spots, THE FOOD, the fun and laughter, the enjoyable and beautiful hikes that weren't too strenuous or long, hippies on a stick, CHOCOLATE, seeing wildlife in its natural environment, learning all about the geography/geology/history/politics/ecology/flora and fauna of the area, the inspiring yoga practice, the mindful focus on the spirit within and around us, charades, learning from each other and sharing with each other, the beautiful and comfortable lodging, and the absolutely wonderful, kind, wise and mothering GUIDES we had to lead us through this journey!"                                                                    ~Sara Downie, Weeklong Retreat 2006, USA

Walking Meditation

“All of us were moved by the power of walking meditation. More insights have emerged (since last week) and I believe they will continue to emerge in the coming weeks.”
~Sarah Hayes, Banff Centre Development Team Leader

"Ronna, the eco-walking meditation and practices served the participants and the process extremely well and how fortunate that the river had dried up enough for us to have access to that special, sacred space between the beautiful mountains! The weather was with us also. Lying in the sunshine on that meadow was an unforgettable experience for all! Thanks so much!"                                                                                                                                          ~Lotte Darso, Associate Professor of Innovation and team Leader, Danish School of Education
