Oregon Coast Women's retreat
Newport, OR ~ July 24-26
Ocean air, messy hair, and a weekend that’s equal parts movement, deep chats, and “wait why don’t I feel like this all the time?” We’ll hike the coast, do yoga that actually feels good, melt into a sound bath, and spend a lot of time laughing, chatting, and just being human together (but feel free to go read by yourself at any time!). Wear whatever you want, move however you want, be exactly who you are that day. No pressure to be the chill girl, the strong girl, or the put-together girl. Just come be a human by the ocean and see what shifts. Come for the views, stay for the vibes, leave feeling a little more like yourself.
*accommodations and meals are not included in retreat cost*

kind words from clients
“This retreat went way too fast and yet it lives within me forever. Thanks for being everything I needed! 💕"
-Rebecca S.
"Carolyn has been an answer to my prayers. She understands the female body, mind and soul. I look forward to working out with her, and feel guilty when I don't make it in. I've laughed, cried and had a ton of fun. I would recommend her to any of my family or friends. She is an amazing human being, you're going to love her!"
-Hillary B.
"Rachel's retreat was so beautiful and transformative! I left feeling inspired, more connected to myself, and so grateful for the experience!”
—Cherie M.
Your Vibe Curators
Carolyn and Rachel
We’re two women who care a lot about how you feel in your body and not at all about you fitting into some perfect version of it.
We’ve spent a combined 35 years in the fitness, movement, and wellness world, lifting heavy, slowing down, and questioning most of the rules along the way. We believe you can be strong and soft, grounded and a little chaotic.
We’re not here to fix you, coach you into becoming someone else, or tell you there’s one right way to feel empowered. We’re here to create spaces where you can move, breathe, connect, and maybe realize you’ve been more powerful than you thought this whole time.
Carolyn and Rachel started leading retreats separately, but for the same reason: we couldn't find ones we actually wanted to go to! We want these spaces to feel real. No forced healing or performative transformation and definitely no yoni eggs.
faq
What are the ACCOMMODATIONS?
Accommodations are not included in the retreat cost to be considerate of everyone's budget and preferences! We are happy to provide recommendations of where to stay.
where do i go?
Our home base will be Harmony Yoga Studio in Newport, OR.
How do i get there?
Fly into PDX or EUG. From there, it's a 1.5 to 2.5 hour drive. If you don't want to rent a car, you can book a shuttle from PDX to Newport. Rachel will be happy to help you figure all this out!
Can my boyfriend come?
This event is for people who identify as a woman or non-binary.
how fit do i have to be to keep up?
This retreat is for all-levels and there are no skill prerequisites. We will not be hiking 10 miles or doing 30 minute handstands. Since you get two retreat hosts, it will be easy for us to split into groups if necessary for the hikes, and of course, every movement class will have a variety of modifications to choose from. Every activity is completely optional as well.
What if i have to cancel?
We understand that life happens. Unfortunately, due to the nature of this event, we are unable to give full refunds. Cancellations made before June 24 can be refunded 75% and cancellations made on or after June 24 can be refunded 75% for retreat credit only.
what should i bring?
The weather will probably be sunny in the 80's. The coast can get windy, so bring layers! Bring beach shoes, hiking shoes, and clothing that's comfortable to move in for both hiking and yoga. We'll be going into town so if you like to not look like you just came from yoga you can bring those clothes too.
What is a sound bath?
Don't worry, you're not getting wet! A sound bath is basically meditation to/with sound. Rachel uses crystal singing bowls and her voice to create a gentle, soothing environment of sound to help your body relax and move into a healing state of being.
I have another question!
We have 2 group chats open on Instagram. One for general questions and one for arranging for room shares/carpools etc. Feel free to email Rachel as well.
