live well retreat - Deep Creek


Join Marissa in Deep Creek, MD for a wonderful weekend away (May 17-19, 2024, Friday and Saturday night) with friends or come alone and make life long connections over the weekend. Retreats can be a beautiful escape from reality, but also an exciting way to connect, refill your tank and dive deeper into yourself. This weekend will be filled with creative and yummy yoga practices combined with sound baths, workshops, all levels of practice and more surprise adventures built into the weekend. All yoga practices will take place in the home or if weather permits outside on the beautiful decks surrounded by trees. During the weekend when we are not practicing yoga we have included some amazing activities that are optional as well as offering free time to adventure to the lake (shared dock access), hike, shop in the area, check out the local attractions and more. The home we are renting has a large covered porch offering filtered lake views and overlooking the large outdoor area, where there is a large fire pit area with room for everyone to play lots of outdoor games or just enjoy a cold drink at the outdoor bar area. We will keep the amazing food and drinks flowing all weekend as well in the home as we have our entire weekend catered by local restaurants, catering services, home cooking and in Deep Creek and Baltimore.
