Rejuvenate & Rediscover: Women's Yoga & Workshop Retreat

“Fresh air is as good for the mind as for the body. Nature always seems to be trying to talk to us as if she had some great secret to tell. And so she has.” –John Lubbock

Escape to the serene Catskills and rediscover yourself at our exclusive women’s retreat. Nestled in the breathtaking glacial valley, the prestigious Menla Retreat Center is your sanctuary for relaxation and rejuvenation. Accommodations include the very cabin that once housed the Dalai Lama, allowing you to connect with the profound energy of this space.

Our tailored workshops and yoga classes will be designed to tap into your divine feminine energy. Experience the transformative power of sound baths, self massage, and aromatherapy techniques for holistic health. Our on-site chef sources fresh ingredients from our garden to create nourishing meals that leave you revitalized.

Participate in therapeutic workshops designed to tap into your inner feminine energy and reconnect with your authentic self. Indulge in amenities like an outdoor pool, fitness center, billiards, tennis courts, waterfalls, and the Dewa spa (additional fee). Explore enchanting hiking trails and find inspiration in our art displays.

Please note that while all retreat activities are optional, the cost includes everything on the itinerary. We encourage you to embrace the layered learning approach of the workshops and attend them in sequence and entirety to fully immerse yourself in the transformative experience they offer.  Complimentary refreshments and delicious meals are provided.  Join us for a weekend that will leave you feeling renewed, reconnected, and inspired. Spots for this exclusive retreat are limited, ensuring an intimate and personalized experience for everyone.

A few booking notes:

Please note that the website lists available room types, not the number of beds left. Once you register, you will be assigned a room in one of the two cabins available. Roommate requests can be made through Menla after all parties are registered. Note that guests must book the same room type to be placed together. Each cabin has 5 bedrooms and two shared full bathrooms. There are a maximum of 9 people in each cabin. One bathroom is located on each floor and will be shared with 4-5 participants. Each cabin also comes with a living area and full kitchen.  Additional bathhouse amenities are also available on site if needed.
