Float Like A Feather: Yoga Transitions
Saturday May 24, 2025 8:30am - 9:30am MDT
Have you ever wondered if you could float effortlessly in and out of your yoga postures? Or step forward from Downward Dog with quiet, controlled grace?

In this workshop, we’ll explore the art of seamless movement by engaging deep core compression, hugging into center, and connecting with the bandhas—root, solar plexus, and throat. Through refined awareness and subtle shifts, you’ll tap into the energetic foundations of your practice, blending strength with lightness.

Expect a deeper connection to the philosophy behind movement, as well as practical tools to bring more ease and fluidity into your asana practice.

Awakening The Inner Breath 🎶
Saturday May 24, 2025 2:00pm - 3:30pm MDT
The breath is the gateway to transformation, bridging the dynamic energy of the body with the subtle stillness of the mind. It serves as the axis where movement and stillness, effort and ease merge into a profound experience of presence.

In this session, Andrew Misle will guide you through a breath-centered journey, starting with an invigorating dynamic practice designed to awaken energy, activate the body, and heighten breath awareness. As the physical energy builds and the body begins to release, you’ll start to sense the subtler layers of the breath, discovering how it anchors, harmonizes, and expands your awareness.

Gradually, we’ll transition into inner practices, inviting you into a more intimate experience of the breath as a source of clarity, balance, and transformation. Through pranayama and meditative techniques, you’ll explore how the breath influences not just the physical body, but also the emotional and mental layers of your being.
This practice will empower you to:

Awaken Energy – Harness dynamic movement and breath integration to energize the body and enliven the senses.
🌿 Deepen Awareness – Experience the breath as a tool for focus, balance, and connection.
💫 Discover Subtlety – Shift from external effort to inner stillness, finding presence in each breath.

Join us to experience the transformative power of breath, as it evolves from a force of action into a profound channel of insight, connecting you to the deepest layers of yourself.

Higher Self Hypnosis 🎶 powered by Luminescence Healing
Saturday May 24, 2025 3:00pm - 4:30pm MDT
This two hour workshop begins with an introduction on raising your frequency with Cindy Drummond, owner of Luminescence Healing Inc in Calgary, Alberta.

Follow this, Ishta Devi will offer a guided somatic experience to connect with your “Higher Self”. This is the version of you who is fully aligned with your Truth, Power, Integrity and Authenticity. Only you really know your Higher Self - so this is all you. Next, we collaborate as a group to create a collective script for a guided group hypnosis to connect to and embody our Higher Selves. 
Then, we use our collaborative script in a group hypnosis session. Hypnosis is basically deep relaxation when you move into theta brainwave states (the sate between wake and sleep). When you are in theta, you are receptive or “suggestible” to receive new information. 
After our group hypnosis session, we integrate with a sharing circle and closing guided breath and meditation to seal the powerful work we did together.

This session will be accompanied by Michelle Haines using true crystal sound bowls, courtesy of Luminescence Healing.

  • Each session lasts 30 minutes and allows you to fully embrace the benefits of heat therapy.
  • Arrive 10 minutes early to check in and get settled.
🧖 What to Bring:
  • A towel (or rent one from us on-site if needed).

🔥 Why Try It?
Sweating it out in a sauna promotes muscle recovery, circulation, stress relief, and detoxification—the perfect complement to your festival experience. Whether you're unwinding after yoga or just craving a moment of warmth and stillness, this is an opportunity to reset, recharge, and reconnect.

Sacred Farewell: Embracing Transformation 🎶
Saturday May 24, 2025 7:30pm - 9:00pm MDT
Join Kristina Stauffer, an Ordained Metaphysical Minister and Holistic Coach, for an intimate, transformative ceremony that honours life’s natural cycles of growth and release. Drawing from her personal journey of healing—from overcoming trauma and embracing her truth—Kristina offers a compassionate space for self-discovery and empowerment. With expertise in Yoga Philosophy, Ayurveda, Somatic Experiencing, and Breathwork, she guides individuals to reconnect with their authentic selves and confront the shadows that hold them back.

In this sacred ceremony, you’ll explore the transformative power of impermanence. Rather than seeing loss as an end, Kristina invites you to use it as an opportunity to shed old patterns and limiting beliefs, making way for new growth. Through reflective journaling, ritual, and radical self-acceptance, you will release what no longer serves you, allowing your body and mind to process the transformation on a deeper, somatic level.

This is a space for letting go and embracing renewal. Just as trees shed their leaves to allow new growth, you will release guilt, shame, and emotional blockages, stepping into your next chapter with clarity and grace. With Kristina’s gentle guidance, you’ll craft a personal intention for release and create a symbolic eulogy to honor your past self—opening the door to a future filled with strength, authenticity, and newfound freedom.
