INCLUSIVE ADVENTURES FOR YOGA & OUTDOOR ENTHUSIASTS TO RETREAT INTO THE WILDERNESS OF NORTHERN MINNESOTA

(and once in a while… we take an epic adventure to Alaska!)

At the core of everything we do is a desire to offer affordable experiences for those interested in immersing themselves in nature, yoga, and movement.

We’re in the news!

Amanda had the great honor of representing Boreal Bliss Yoga Retreats on ABC’s KSTP news for their Minnesota Live segment.

She shared quick tips for finding stress relief amidst the chaos of a Minnesota summer.

We were so honored to be invited for this feature! And thank you to our family, friends, and Boreal Bliss community for your outpouring of support.

Seasonal Retreats

Boreal means “of the north.” We believe north is a state of mind, a place in the heart.

WE SPECIALIZE IN CREATING OPPORTUNITIES TO FEEL FULLY ENGAGED WITH LIFE THROUGH IMMERSION IN OUTDOOR EXPERIENCES.

WE WHOLEHEARTEDLY BELIEVE IN THE MANTRA:

“AS LONG AS I’M BREATHING, I’M PRACTICING YOGA.”
