Free Spirited Wanderer (n.):
A Free Spirited Wanderer sees the yoga mat as a gateway to self-discovery, views the world as a boundless source of wisdom to honor and learn from, and embraces each moment as a chance to live boldly and authentically.
They move through life with curiosity and courage, respecting the diversity of cultures, people, and experiences along the way.
With a deep commitment to personal growth, they challenge the conventional, embracing the beauty of forging their own path while celebrating the shared journey of humanity.
"Carole’s teachings go beyond just the physical practice, diving deeply into the mental and spiritual benefits of yoga as a lifestyle. Her passion for the true essence of yoga shines through in every session, as she not only guides you through the poses but also shares her profound understanding of yoga’s philosophy and how it applies to life off the mat. Carole freely shares her knowledge, resources, and insights, encouraging us to continue learning and embracing yoga’s teachings in our everyday lives."

I am so happy you're here; it is my honor to welcome you into our FSW community. I have been a student of yoga for 14 years and teaching for 10 years. I have trained in Nepal, India, Colorado, North Carolina, and virtually. I started leading Yoga & Wellness Retreats in 2017 (when Free Spirited Wanderer was born) to share my love of travel, culture, community, wellness and yoga with others. As of October 2025, I have had the privilege of leading 31 retreats; 14 within the U.S and 17 international, which has hosted 350+ participants.
My mission as a yoga teacher is to help more people take yoga off the mat and live it as it was intended, a lifestyle. My hope for you is that our offerings at Free Spirited Wanderer help prepare you for your lifetime; providing you with a space to become the fullest expression of yourself so you can walk with purpose and live with love.
