The Hideaway

Join Cat Matlock and Raphaela Fritz for a multi-faceted, trauma-informed experience designed to cultivate both deep grounding and expansive freedom.

What would it feel like to be fully yourself—held, supported, and safe—while also allowing others to be exactly as they are? Inspired by the goddess Bhuvaneshwari, the divine mother who embodies infinite space and limitless freedom while holding the entire world within her, this class invites you to explore that balance within yourself. Through storytelling, mantra, chanting, and asana practice, you will create openness and fluidity in your body and spirit.

A guided breathwork practice and meditation will lead you into a deeply restorative shavasana, where you can surrender into the infinite. All levels are welcome. Cat and Raphaela are honored to hold this space for you.

Fire Element Yin Practice – Embracing the Mess & the Magic LIMITED

Friday July 25, 2025 8:00am - 9:30am EDT

Vespara Room at AC

In Chinese Medicine, the Fire element governs the Heart Meridian, the seat of our spirit and the bridge between chaos and clarity, passion and peace. Fire energy invites us to embrace the full spectrum of our experience—joy and sorrow, exhaustion and inspiration—without resistance. It is the element of deep feeling, connection, and radiant presence.

Through a heart-centered Yin practice, we will gently stimulate the Heart and Small Intestine meridians, dissolving energetic stagnation and softening the protective armor around the heart. Expect deep holds, compassionate self-inquiry, and breathwork to cultivate both tender vulnerability and fierce aliveness. In honoring both the mess and the magic, we learn to trust the fire within—burning away what no longer serves while illuminating our deepest truths.

Come ready to surrender, expand, and rekindle the spark of your own wild, untamed heart.

When Ramana Maharshi was asked how we should treat others, his answer was both simple and profound : there are no others. That wisdom, along with the elements of water and fire are the inspiration for this offering of a dynamic practice that will activate the physical body, detoxify tension, fear and grief through mindful movement, sweat, pranayama and kriya and return us to our true nature.

Our innermost self is the essence of bliss, of love, of deep connectedness. When we move in the world from this space of infinite love, deep bliss ~ our very presence is healing. We are the medicine. We are the healing salve and comforting balm when our practice is embodied. (description)

Aurora Room at AC

We have a tendency to pin our exhaustion onto our chests like a badge of honour, hovering just above complete burnout as our nervous system spins out of control begging for a reset. This is your chance. A time to settle into a deep understanding that rest is your birthright, it is not something that needs to be earned or ashamed of. It is this knowing that allows us to soften back into our innate ability to heal and to connect to our intuition, our inherent creativity and our endless imagination. Yoga Nidra is the pathway home. A practice of returning. Of allowing ourselves to fall back into the open arms of deep rest. This workshop is an introduction into some of these rest practices. We will spend time in conversation around the history, tradition and techniques of these practices and then drift towards them, wandering down the pathway of untangling until we land softly into our Nidra nest. You will walk away feeling rested and more deeply connected to that clear voice inside of you that calls out for you to slow down, be quiet and listen.

On an energetic level, it is the medium in which the meridian system is inlaid, thereby the vehicle for the migration of Qi through the subtle body.

In this workshop, we map out the anatomical layers of fascia and practice different techniques to release the connective tissue. We will focus on yin and yang styles of asana and fluid movement patterns to enhance the flow of prana through the fascial planes.

This class is where the mess and the magic come together on the dance floor. We’ll flow through deep house beats, allowing the rhythm to guide us through each wave of movement—whether we’re moving through a challenge or celebrating. It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being in the moment, letting go, and embracing everything that comes up. No judgment, no need to hide. Just pure expression. DJed by Adarooo. To close, we’ll drift into Savasana with the soothing sounds of handpan by Adarooo, grounding and calming us after the energy of the dance.

Journey Into Deeper Oceans of Mindfulness LIMITED

Saturday July 26, 2025 4:00pm - 5:15pm EDT

Aurora Room at AC

Let the breath guide you into deeper oceans of mindfulness. Embark in the gift of stillness through Yin yoga while unleashing fresh energetic pathways that yield to Prana and restore the flow within. Through steeping in specific asanas by lying on the earth in longer held poses, we will explore our many diverse emotions and how they are expressed within our inner landscape. We are vessels of transformation. How can we overcome the experience of facing what we cover up or run from? It begins with this present breath ready to face what arises. Navigated by our Breath of Life, the sticks and branches are cleared in this inner river of blessings. Awareness grows as we simply allow the rising of the inner light to shed rays of clarity on any darkness or obstacle by simply trusting in this journey with our present breath that carves out our life. Like waves returning to the ocean and shore of our being, we have the power to return to our breath and observe what arises and anything that doesn’t serve us begins to dissolve. We continue to anchor into our breath again and again in this safe space where our hearts pulsate with life in a continual rhythm. Yin yoga benefits in improving this energetic flow of chi in our organs and works on the deeper tissues of the body. Using this ancient knowledge, you will unleash your highest potential by restoring the flow in mind and body and leave refreshed and renewed on this beautiful path of yoga.

Cultivating Courage Within Chaos ~ Find Your Center in the Storm LIMITED

Saturday July 26, 2025 4:00pm - 5:30pm EDT

The Venue (Balcony)

When life becomes unpredictable, when the ground beneath us shakes, how do we hold steady and strong? In times of upheaval, we are invited not to resist chaos but to move with it, release through it, and forge resilience from within ourselves.This class is a fire-building, rhythm-driven experience designed to anchor us in our strength while allowing energy to move through breath, core activation, and dynamic release. Inspired by Rudra—the roaring force of transformation in Tantric philosophy—we will explore: Rhythmic Release & Embodied Chaos – Shaking, pulsing, and spirals to unstick energy and free the body, Core Fire & Fierce Focus – Deep core activation and stabilizing movement to ignite inner power, Sweat & Strength – Heat-building sequences that ground and fortify the body, Sacred Stillness & Integration – Dropping into deep presence and peaceful calmness after the storm has passed. Set to an evocative soundscape, this practice is an invitation to burn through fear, harness our power, and rise unshaken, returning with increased focus and vigilance. Step into the fire. Move with the rhythm. Cultivate courage within chaos.

Bliss Body: Slow Flow, Yin, & Yoga Nidra LIMITED

Sunday July 27, 2025 8:00am - 9:30am EDT

Aurora Room at AC

When we have the spaciousness and quietude to familiarize ourselves with the mind's natural state, we get clear and spacious. Our inherent "Bliss Body" is ever-present. Underneath the continuous confluence of change, there is a stable center point of safety we can celebrate. Using ancient teachings and an intermingling of Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Slow Flow, we’ll fine tune our methods for mindful cultivation & inherent ease. Long held floor poses encourage and enhance the Qi or energy distribution through the bones and connective tissues that bind them. These mainly static postures coax Qi into the respective Meridians (the unseen riverbeds of energy the Qi travels through), thereby encouraging a kind of needle-less acupuncture treatment. This style of practice nourishes the natural range of motion of the joints, increases the resilience and elasticity of our fascia, and slows the impact of aging. Yoga Nidra is a deeply restorative practice that guides you into a state of conscious relaxation, allowing us to come home again & again to our own inner landmark of self trust. The greatest journey doesn't take us anywhere, it just brings us more here . Join Kali for a longevity practice to return to the radiant, ephemeral BLISS BODY.
