FAQ on Lake Life State of Mind Yoga Retreat
We have a lot of common questions from folks interested in our retreats. We love to be as transparent as possible. Here’s the low-down if you’re interested in joining us for our upcoming May 30-June 1, 2025 Lake Life State of Mind Yoga Retreat!
Q: Do people often attend your retreats solo? If so, is it easy for them to integrate into the group?
A: Many of our retreaters attend solo! At a typical retreat, 25-40% of our participants arrive solo. We empower all retreaters to make choices that are the best for their needs at the time. We have many options on our weekend itinerary so that you can choose what feels best for your desired weekend. We encourage a welcoming, friendly, and casual environment from the start. For example, at our welcome circle, we kick the weekend off with time to get to know one another in the group.
Often, solo retreaters report having the most nourishing experience! Even those who have attended our retreaters with friends, and then opt for a solo getaway, remark on the astounding power a weekend with yourself can hold.
Q: I am in my 70s; will I fit in?
A: Yes! We have several folks in their 70s attending. The age range of our retreats is 18-80+ years old. The most common age concentration being in the 30-50 range.
Q: I don’t do that much yoga, will I be okay?
