"Carie is hot. She's carrying the torch for Freedom Style Yoga, and Feathered Pipe is offering a fantastic deal. Treat yourself. Highly, highly recommended. Carie shines. Need I say more?" ~Erich Schiffmann

I’m thrilled to be spending my 10^th summer at the Feathered Pipe Ranch, sharing with you in a week of deep community and connection, a whole lot of fun, laughter, and creative yoga practice - both on and off the mat. We’ll open our hearts, relax into who we are, and help give each other the courage to follow our inner guidance and be ourselves fully, without limit. The result is healing, energizing, and deeply transformative.

Our sessions together will be a unique blend of Freedom Style Yoga, an intuitive, guided-from-within practice of exploring options and choices in the poses; and Bhakti Yoga, the devotional yoga of the heart, which uses our emotions and our longing for The Divine as a pathway to the connection we yearn to find.

Feathered Pipe Main Room

Each session will have a slightly different flavor and will incorporate various elements to help us dive straight into the center of ourselves: meditation, chanting, creative asana and sequencing, storytelling and discussions, and Bhakti Moves - a dance-based practice that I’ve created. Bhakti Moves is a fusion of my deepest passions: Freedom Style Yoga, dance, meditation, rhythm, music, and my exuberance for the beauty and magic of life.

The Feathered Pipe Ranch is the most soul-nourishing place on earth for me. I invite you to join me as we each reclaim our own voice, celebrate our unique essence, and honor our own story and journey. I look forward to seeing you.
