This unique Teen Yoga Retreat ​blends fun, adventure, connection, peace and mindfulness practices. It is the perfect space to help your teen step out of their comfort zone in a safe and encouraging way, helping them to learn that they really can do hard things.

This year’s retreat will be held at a stunning lakefront home in the heart of the Berkshires, Massachusetts.

🍽️ Shared Mealtime Responsibility – Teens will take turns helping prepare dinner, learning collaboration and basic cooking skills.  

 

🌞 Scheduled Downtime – Time each day to rest, journal, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

 

The retreat is about more than just yoga—it’s a chance for teens to explore who they are, connect with others, and return home with tools to support their mental and emotional well-being.

Your Teen Will: 

 

  • Step out of their comfort zone, in a safe & supported way

  • Leave feeling refreshed, renewed and recharged 

  • Connect with nature

  • Explore the art of self-love and self-care through yoga

  • Unplug from technology, with 7 days of screen-free time 

  • Learn to discover the beauty of the present moment

2026 Outdoor Adventures Include:

  • White Water Rafting (Class I & II) — yes, really! This may sound scary to some, and exciting to others! But I know that everyone can do it. Everyone will receive instruction, and we will work together as a team to navigate the raft through the rapids of the Deerfield River. Along the way we will have the opportunity to float, swim, unwind, and soak in the natural beauty of the river.

  • Ziplining Mountain Top Tour — we will zip between platforms high above the Deerfield River Valley on 7 zip lines. Not for the faint of heart, but I have a feeling that I will be the one who is most afraid of this adventure!

  • Aerial Adventure Park — the group will work together to navigate this exciting suspended challenge course, which features elevated platforms, cargo nets, bridges, ladders, and zip lines.

 

Your Teen's Adventure Includes:

  • Accommodation 

  • 3 healthy meals per day + snacks (please note that your teen is welcome to bring preferred snacks or foods)

  • All yoga & meditation classes & workshops

  • Guided outdoor adventures 

  • Complimentary transportation from Arlington, MA to the retreat site 

  • Supervision from a certified yoga teacher, who is an experienced mom of 3, is CORI tested, has a clean driving record & is certified in First Aid & CPR

TESTIMONIALS

SHAUNA, mom to Sadie - 14
TEEN RETREAT - 2025

Louise puts so much care, intentionality, and love into these retreats. She organizes every day around a theme and plans each activity specifically so our teens have a positive and memorable experience. It's amazing to see them learn about self-compassion and bravery alongside all the fun they're having. I'm grateful to Louise for the meaningful mentoring she's given to my daughter and cannot recommend her classes and retreats highly enough.

ANDREA, mom to Lucy - 14
TEEN RETREAT - 2025

We’re so grateful to Louise for offering our teen such a unique

opportunity to step out of her comfort zone and connect with nature,

build friendships, and grow her confidence. This is not your average

summer camp experience! Louise has designed such a special yoga and

mindfulness retreat for teens. She selects beautiful accommodations,

plans daily epic adventures, sparks creativity with art projects, and

builds independence and mindfulness through daily yoga practice. Our

daughter came home feeling well-rested and happy. She is already

looking forward to next year’s retreat.

AMARA - 14 year old
TEEN RETREAT - 2025

I don’t want to go back to real life where everyone’s on their phones again, feeling like I need to be attached to my phone again and having to reply to messages. At home, I pick up my phone without even thinking, and then I’m stuck in it because I can’t figure out what else to do. Part of me wishes someone would just take it away, but I know I’d feel left out too. This week felt so different — doing the coloring, the bracelets, just like we used to. Being with friends without our phones was so nice. Being outside so much more, laughing, playing games, reading, all without the distraction of the phone . I want more of that. I also loved doing yoga in so many different ways—SUP yoga on the lake, aerial yoga in the studio, even goat yoga.

VICTORIA - 14 year old
TEEN RETREAT - 2025

I LOVED goat yoga, the goats really loved me! And Frenchman’s hole when we jumped off the rocks into the water, that was so cool. It was awesome meeting everyone, everyone was really nice. I liked doing yoga, and I loved the meditation at night. I need you to come home with me and put me to sleep every night!”

IZZY - 14
TEEN RETREAT - 2025

I just wanted to say thank you so much again for everything. The retreat was truly wonderful and you were honestly the most helpful person and I felt so comforted by you.

SHAUNA, mom to Sadie - 13
TEEN RETREAT - 2024

We could not have asked for a better retreat experience for our daughter. Louise puts so much care, intentionality, and integrity into her programming. Every day, the girls had opportunities to connect with themselves and to each other while still having a lot of fun. We appreciated the level of communication and the ability to follow along on the adventures in the shared photo album. I am amazed at the diversity of experiences our daughter was able to have and am so thankful she has Louise in her life. 

ANONYMOUS - mom to 13 yo
TEEN RETREAT - 2024

This retreat was life-changing for my daughter. She came home more confident, grounded, and glowing with happiness. It was her first time away from home, and she felt instantly welcomed and supported. She made incredible friendships, challenged herself in new ways, and hasn’t stopped talking about the zip-lining and yoga under the trees! I’m so grateful she had this experience to unplug, reconnect, and just be herself.”

ANONYMOUS - 13
TEEN RETREAT - 2024

I didn’t know what to expect, but this retreat ended up being one of the best weeks of my life. I loved spending the week with my friends, and making new ones. I really loved pushing myself on the zip lining, even though I was terrified at first, I felt so proud after. 

 

We spent time in the hot tub under the stars, went to a drive-in movie, and just got to be together without our phones. I know I’ll keep these new friends, and I hope I keep some of these new phone habits."

CHELA, mom to Tali, 13
TEEN RETREAT - 2024

This was not your typical camp or typical yoga. It was Tali's 13th birthday while she was at camp, and they celebrated her just like as if she was at home with family. We were so happy.

The camp is about friendships, laughter and much more. So happy I found this camp for my 13 year old daughter
