I attended the inaugural spring into summer retreat and it was amazing! 

 

I was new to yoga at the time, and Rhodella & staffwere very welcoming and patient in providing me withinstruction. 

 

The facilities at Divine Acres are true to their name, and an actual retreat into nature - with a meticulously manicured site at the base of a mountain range in the heart of the Adirondacks. 

 

The farmhouse where we stayed was newly renovated while still maintaining its historic charm.  The beds and mattresses were brand new.  I was the first to sleep on mine.  The food is amazing!  The on-site chef for the weekend, Stacy Hendrie, specializes in health & wellness meal prep, and we enjoyed super clean, super healthy food that really set the tone for such a restorative weekend.  The yoga studio looks and smells new.  There are different instructors each day - which I liked because I was exposed to each of their unique perspectives.  Rhodella led an aroma yoga session and that was cool! 

 

I also liked the fact that there were activities outside of yoga where we could appreciate our natural surroundings.  There was an awesome hike up an old logging trail, and we were led in a reflective discussion around the outdoor fire pit.  During breaks in the day, there were health & wellness workshops for us to attend. 

 

Suffice to say, I had an amazing time and will definitely be back.  And I very highly recommend one billion percent!!!!!!!!!
