OUR MISSION:

Free Spirited Wanderer Retreats have been created to provide an experience based off two main concepts;
1) To build Kula; intentional community, the feeling that life is best when shared.
2) The human desire we feel to live a truly meaningful & fulfilling life.
Each retreat brings these two concepts alive as we travel to exceptional places within the world and move through a variety of yoga classes, workshops and excursions, providing you with the self-exploration, adventure, connection and freedom your heart & soul seeks.
**CEU's available for yoga teachers on all retreats.

HI, I'M CAROLE
Yoga Teacher, Lifestyle Coach, Retreat Leader, and the Founder of Free Spirited Wanderer.
In High School, I knew that I was destined for an unconventional life rooted in travel, yoga, and self exploration.
I majored in Business to gain insight on how to become an entrepreneur. I studied abroad three times; business in Spain and Buddhist Philosophy in India & Cambodia to feed my adventurous, life-experience and knowledge seeking soul.
I have completed two 200 hour Yoga Teacher Trainings (Rishikul Yogshala; Nepal 2014 & Y2 Yoga; Charlotte, NC 2022), one 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training (Rishikul Yogshala; India, 2018), two trainings with Para Yoga (Marma & Four Desires), a year long Ashtanga Yoga Apprenticeship with AYS and countless immersions and workshops, all to deepen my skills as a student and teacher.
I started leading Yoga & Wellness Retreats in 2017 to share my love of travel, culture, community, health and yoga with others. 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 prayer for you is that these retreats help prepare you for your lifetime; providing you with a space to become the fullest expression of yourself so you can live a BIG life with meaning and fulfillment.
