Winter Yoga Retreat

Winter Yoga Retreat

Slow down with a day of yoga and and meditation surrounded by the Australian bush at Riverdell.

On Saturday the 9th of August, join Laura and a small group of like-minded people to immerse yourself in a day of yoga, meditation, delicious food and community and leave feeling recharged.

This Winter Yoga Retreat will be all about slowing down and tuning in. A slow and steady flowing vinyasa class will allow you to tune in, before we enjoy a slow cooked curry. After lunch you will together and then individually reflect on how we can bring some slow and steady into our everyday life. The day will then close with a restorative yin yoga class and herbal teas.

Your nourishing day will include:

  • Herbal teas on arrival to sip as you meet other retreat participants. 

  • An extended flow to restore yoga class ~ think an energising vinyasa class, with plenty of time for letting go into savasana.

  • An introduction to meditation.

  • A delicious hot, slow cooked vergitarian curry for lunch.

  • Some solo time with a walk and meditate under the Riverdell trees.

  • A restorative yin yoga class.

About Your Retreat Facilitator

Hey, I’m Laura your retreat facilitator. In 2024 I expanded my offerings to include a quarterly one day seasonal yoga retreat.

Honestly, I created these one day retreats because this was something I was yearning for, a whole day to let everyday life to one side and immerse myself in yoga, meditation and community. I didn’t have the time or funds for a full weekend retreat, let alone a destination retreat and decided I would fill this gap myself with a simple one day yoga retreat each season at different retreat venues in and around Adelaide.

I teach breath focussed yoga, which gives busy minds and bodies not only the opportunity for a much needed exhale, to release built up stress and tension, but also a much needed inhale, to replenish.

Each retreat will have a base of vinyasa in the morning, a delicious lunch followed by a nature walk and yin yoga in the afternoon. On top of that retreats feature a deep dive or introduction to another aspect of yoga, nutrition workshop or open time to for participants to reflect.

My one day yoga retreats cater to beginners and seasoned yogis. Mostly they are for busy people (like me) who love yoga.

Yoga Retreat Testimonials

  • I attended Laura's Autumn Yoga Retreat at Riverdell Spiritual Centre in May, and it was the perfect mini getaway without the overnight stay. The yoga was warming and invigorating, the meditation grounding, and exploring the senses through breathwork truly brought me back to myself. We were treated to delicious veggie soup, hot chocolate, and homemade banana bread—such thoughtful touches that made us all feel completely spoilt. I left feeling refreshed, nourished, and so grateful for the experience.

  • I hadn't been on a yoga retreat before, so didn't know what to expect. I was beautifully surprised at the warm reception, friendly and nurturing vibe, the great venue with beach views and of course the yoga, especially the Yin, which completed the 'me time' and left me feeling whole. I really noticed a difference the next day, which was an awesome bonus! I found myself in a really positive and happy head space. Overall, I loved it. Thanks Laura!!!

  • Laura holds a beautiful space for you to come to the mat as you are. I felt welcome and at ease immediately. Cueing of poses was perfect and lots of options were given. The day was a perfect mix of structure and enough free time for reflection or to chat with others. I'll be back for more days

  • I have never been to a yoga retreat before and Spring and Summer Yoga Retreats with Laura were fabulous. Laura plans an exceptional day, starting off with a vinyasa flow, followed by a lovely lunch catered by Olivia (the food was delicious, I couldn't stop eating it), a walk on the beach, yin and the retreat ended with an afternoon tea, again the food was amazing! The retreat was definitely worth the trip, I definitely can't wait to attend the next retreat!

  • Laura’s yoga retreat at Henley Beach was such a relaxing and refreshing experience. The mix of energetic and restorative yoga sessions was really well-balanced, and the setting by the beach added a peaceful vibe. The food was genuinely nourishing—healthy, satisfying, and clearly prepared with care. It felt like a proper reset without any pressure or pretence. Highly recommend if you're looking to unwind and feel good. Thank you Laura for a relaxing and beautiful retreat.
