Personal & Small Group Retreats

Are you looking for a deeper journey?

Are you motivated by spiritual values? The Movement Center offers an unparalleled opportunity to build a foundation for meditation and yoga that you can maintain long after you’ve returned to the hubbub of the outside world.

Within the dynamic setting of our urban ashram, we invite you to use a personal retreat to develop stillness of mind and greater awareness, two skills that will positively affect every aspect of your life.

Here are a few reasons to do a personal retreat:

  • Remove yourself from ordinary distractions to discover the inner you
  • De-stress and learn life skills through yoga and meditation
  • Take your spiritual practice to a deeper level
  • Celebrate a life passage
  • Focus on healing and well-being through our Vajrayana practices
  • Experience living in a spiritual community

from one of our recent guests….

My time of retreat at The Movement Center was one of letting go, opening, and being filled. From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed warmly by everyone I met and was immediately invited into the community through meals, meditation, yoga classes, and service. I have never experienced a spiritual community like this. I am in awe of the grounding you have gained through the discipline of daily meditation practice. You live consciously together with love and respect and an honoring of life and each other. I feel your connection to God. Your openness and love and warmth flowed right to me. I feel I’ve been at the fountain. I feel loved, honored, and filled. Thank you.
