Path: a course or direction in which a person is moving.
Each new day offers a chance to live fully into our path and bring us more in line with our deepest intentions. The traditional sense of achievements are on pause, allowing us to carve out a path that is in integrity with where we want to place our attention and time.
Devotion: what we devote our time, attention, our life force to.
This is a recommitment to the love and enthusiasm we bring to this life and to each moment.
We'll make space for ten days of deep self study, yoga practice, and falling in love with life again and again.
This unique 10-day training begins by establishing your svadharma, your own personal path.
Three themes will create a foundation for our practice and study:
With this deeper understanding of your personal path of yoga, we’ll dive into the training’s core curriculum with experienced guidance from Janet Stone and top-of-their-field guest teachers.
In this immersion, we deepen our relationship with self through the lens of bhakti — the devotional, heart-centered path of yoga. We will establish a foundation of living our daily life with love and devotion to each breath.
We'll gather along the northern bluffs of the Columbia Gorge to expand our perspective, connect with nature, and find space for new ideas and routines.
Guest faculty will include Marti Nikko and DJ Drez.
This immersion is designed for teachers, aspiring teachers and long-term practitioners of yoga.
This training is an in-person elective option for Janet's teacher training programs, and offers 108 hours of elective credit.
Lodging is not included in this training. There are a number of delightful accommodations in White Salmon and the surrounding area. We will share some recommendations.

Janet’s studentship began at 17 under the meditation teachings of Prem Rawat. His reverence for simplicity and finding joy in the rise and fall of life live on in her practice and teaching today. In 1996, she traveled to India, the birthplace of her grandfather, and became dedicated to the path of yoga. Janet blends the alchemy of her own practice with decades of studentship. She aspires not to teach but to allow the practice to emanate from her, letting awareness blend with movement and breath. Based in Bali and San Francisco, she leads immersions, retreats, workshops and more.
