This virtual retreat is designed to offer an immersive experience of an FSW Retreat, accessible to participants from anywhere in the world, and from the comfort of your own home!
It comprises 3 key components:
COMMUNITY
This immersion will value Kula, intentional community; the feeling that life is best when shared. We will open with a welcome, introductions, and icebreakers to get to know one another. This helps us to discover a deeper understanding of ourselves, others, and the world around us.
YOGA
Yoga is the uniting force that brings us together in these retreats. The Immersion will host a 90 minute Vinyasa class inspired by Ashtanga Yoga, consisting of Asana, Pranayama, and Meditation. You will leave feeling rejuvenated, centered, and empowered.
LIFESTYLE
Carole's mission has a yoga teacher is to help more people take yoga off the mat and live it as it was intended, a lifestyle. We will dive into some of the Yoga Philosophy which discusses the aims and practice of yoga and how to apply these lessons to your life in order to reduce suffering and discover more freedom, meaning, and true fulfillment within your days.
A NOTE FROM CAROLE
Founder of Free Spirited Wanderer;
Yoga & Wellness Retreats
Welcome, I am so happy you're here! I'm a free spirited wanderer with a passion for yoga, wellness, travel, and community building. As an E-RYT 500 Yoga Teacher, I started leading yoga retreats in 2017 to intertwine my passions and create a positive impact on the world through sharing the heart of yoga, and helping others to take these practices off the mat and into their daily lives. As of Sept. 2024, I have led 24 retreats within the U.S and internationally.
My goal on all FSW retreats is to create an atmosphere where everyone feels safe to show up as their truest, most authentic self. FSW retreats value KULA; intentional community, the feeling that life is best when shared. I aim to bring people together where they can connect, share in transformational practices, and build lifelong friendships. These are super sacred spaces with an opportunity for everyone to come together to support, uplift and empower each other.
​
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 your life with purpose.
