Here are details for my retreat to the Algarve (it is currently sold out but please email to be on the waitlist :) The Algarve has an international airport (Faro) that is about 1/2 hour away from our resort so you (hopefully) will be able to find a happy direct flight. Note that for about €46 you can take a train from Faro to Lisbon (about 3 hours) if you would like to spend time in Lisbon before or after your retreat (I can help you plan things to do and see :) and you could then fly in or out directly from Lisbon.

We will be staying at the Tivoli Carvoeiro (link at the bottom of this email) from October 10 -16. We will have two intense classes per day. We will practice inside in case the weather is not perfect but October is BEAUTIFUL in Portugal. Breakfast every day is included. We will also have a luxurious welcome dinner (late afternoon) on your first night that is included. There is a gorgeous onsite restaurant and bar that is indoor / outdoor as well as a beautiful full-service spa that my two new friends from Paris tell me is second to none :) The town with its many restaurants, cafes, etc is a 10 minute walk from our resort (although it does not have the hills like where I live, it is still cobble stones so I would bring good walking shoes for shopping, etc.

The price is $2,600 for a private room.

If you would like to do a shared room, you'll pay $3,600 to me and split it up between the two of you as you see fit :) 

$300 deposit via Venmo to hold spot (this is refundable until DEC 8TH and after that it is not refundable because my deposit to the hotel will also be non refundable :) @Renee-LeBlanc-5

Join Caitlyn Visconte & me at the beautiful Evia Silence Retreat Center in Greece. (Despite the name, it is not a silent retreat :) Each morning there will be an early “release & restore” meditative practice followed by an incredible vegetarian breakfast. Later, from about 10a - 12p, we’ll have our intense class followed by a light vegetarian lunch (fresh fruits, salads, breads). You’ll then have the rest of the day to explore the island, visit the thermal spas, book a massage or body treatment or just relax by the pool. Incredible vegetarian dinner served each night at the center around 7p. Please email yogaclubboston@gmail.com for more information. Members of Yoga Club Boston receive a discount on all retreats. Luca will be joining this retreat :)

DEEPER STUDY TRAINING FOR STUDENTS:

There’s a lot to learn about yoga but unless you’re dying to be a yoga teacher, “teacher trainings” are an awful lot of money and time to spend. I’ve taught about 35 200-hour teacher trainings (my own for my own studio, for Back Bay Yoga and for Yoga Works) and a couple of years ago, I finally developed my “Deeper Study” training. I’ve taught it twice so far and it’s exactly what I hoped it would be - dedicated students and teachers learning yoga anatomy, yoga history, sanskrit, yoga philosophy and proper practice technique and alignment. For 2024, I’ve condensed the program more so that it is 4 weekends (schedule below). It’ll all be held on zoom, recorded if you miss a session. It’s $200 for each weekend or, if you’d like to purchase the whole program, $700 for all 4 weekends. The weekends are divided up into body parts so, it’s recommended to do the whole program :) but I’m hoping to make this something that is always going on :) Payment via Venmo to @Renee-LeBlanc-5. The only additional costs are: 1) two books that, of all the dozens of books that I’ve seen required over the years, are the most useful, about $20 each and, you’ll use them both well beyond this training and 2) OPTIONAL and only if you’re not a member of Yoga Club Boston, you’d pay $10 drop-in rate for classes that I would love to see you in :) Feel free to email any questions to renee@reneeleblancyoga.com and, after payment is received, I’ll forward the link for sessions, some reading materials to prep for the January session and, the books that you need.

January 26, 27, 28 2024: Fri 6p-8p “philosophy, history jam” (lecture & questions only, you can wear pj’s ;), Sat 12p-3p, Sun 9:30a-12:30p Sat & Sun are anatomy, alignment, practice technique

March 29, 30, 31 (same schedule)

July 12, 13, 14 (same schedule)

September 20, 21, 22 (same schedule)

Join Renee Leblanc in Cabo San Lucas Mexico for a yoga retreat geared towards students interested in the knowledge gained in a teacher training without the focus of learning to teach. The course of study includes a comprehensive exploration of the physical body and its relation to the asanas. Poses will be broken down with each student so we understand the reason for, and proper alignment of, each asana from the ground up in addition to pranayama breathing techniques, history of yoga and more. The main goal of this training is to increase your personal understanding of the practice so that you can have a better understanding of where you want to take your personal practice and how to get there. Each day will consist of a 2 hour morning practice with a break for lunch and relaxation followed by 4 hours of asana lab and lecture. There will be an additional 5 hours reserved for those who have already completed a 200 hour training, focusing on meaningful and safe assiting and thoughtful, concise cueing. Visit www.pranadelmar.com to see the beautiful property we'll be practicing in :)
