Cannamaste Yoga & Cannabis RetreatWe're ditching the stigma and embracing the benefits of cannabis on this unique cannabis + namaste "Cannamaste" Yoga Retreat! Through workshops, classes and recreational free time, we are excited to showcase how cannabis can enhance a yoga practice - and how yoga can enhance a cannabis practice!
Designed to inform, educate and inspire, this unique program will invite a small group of wellness enthusiasts to Colorado, one of the first states to legalize cannabis for recreational use. Led by Ganja Yoga-certified Rebecca Weible of Yo Yoga!, we'll practice yoga, go hiking, learn how to cook with cannabis, and much more-- all while enjoying the "Mile High City". Yoga: Each day we will have two guided practices, an invigorating class in the morning and an 'enhanced' and more restorative practice in the evening. Rebecca’s yoga teaching style focuses heavily on alignment and even breathing without losing the element of fun and humor. She wants students to feel comfortable and at ease during their practice while still challenging them to take their practice further each class. Adventure: On our Cannamaste retreat, we've got some exciting activities planned to embrace Denver's outdoors + cannabis culture! We'll be going on a guided hike through the mountains with incredible views on one day and visiting the famous Red Rocks Amphitheater on another for a special yoga class. We'll also visit a local dispensary to have all our questions answered and maybe try some new and exciting varieties of cannabis! Relaxation: Some of our more relaxing activities include a cooking with cannabis class where we will learn how to measure, cook and enjoy - responsibly. Also, we will have a CBD workshop to understand the benefits and the different ways to use it. And finally, we will enjoy some of the culinary treasures of Denver with a welcome dinner at a top local restaurant (with live music) and a final farewell group together! |

Meet Coach Rebecca Weible of YoYoga!As there was little opportunity to practice yoga while growing up in Myrtle Beach, SC, Rebecca's mom bought her a book about yoga to fuel her interest. When she taught herself crow pose from the book she was hooked.
Her regular practice began in a Jivamukti studio in Charleston, SC during college. After a few years of practicing yoga in NYC, Rebecca began her teacher training with YogaWorks. While working in advertising, she taught yoga on the side. She decided to leave the corporate job environment and pursue her dream of opening a yoga studio and teaching full time. She is now the founder and director of YoYoga! in New York City. She did both her 200 Hour and 300 Hour trainings at YogaWorks. Rebecca has studied Restorative Yoga with Jillian Pransky and Anatomy through Jill Miller’s Yoga Tune Up Anatomy Module. Rebecca and Yo Yoga! have been written up in the New York Times, Time Out New York, and AM New York and have been featured on MTV and France One Television. And finally, Rebecca has been certified in Ganja Yoga. |

Testimonials about Rebecca & YoYoga!
"I have been studying yoga with Rebecca for close to 5 years now. With her deep knowledge, her ability to break down and encourage new poses, and make classes fun by infusing her wonderful relatable humor, she motivated not only my dedication to my practice but for me to take it further and complete my own teacher training. I am grateful to have such a supportive and inspiring teacher." - Gina D.
"I've been practicing with Rebecca for five years now, since she opened her studio, and I have watched not just my practice expand and grow, but my community grow as well. YoYoga is like a sanctuary in a frenetic city. Rebecca has worked to make this environment welcoming and open, spiritual and fun. There is no room for judgment, only laughter, growth and movement; she truly lets you experience the studio and build your practice in a way that works for you. Rebecca is the perfect balance of fun, while still getting the job done, with amazing music mixes as well as a wide variety of poses that she modifies for each individual. I also attended Rebecca's first yoga getaway which was as playful as it was tough, pushing myself to the limit, but also getting the opportunity to try new inversions and tons of partner yoga. There is literally no other yoga studio or teacher I'd rather practice with." - Deanna F.
