The 2nd Annual Weekend Retreat with Rajashree Choudhury and Emmy Cleaves, two of the most renowned Bikram yoga teachers in the world will be a wonderful time to enhance and encourage our physical, mental, emotional and spiritual yoga practice. Last year this was a phenomenal event with 135 women in the beautiful Northwoods of Minnesota. We will be staying at the luxurious Grandview Lodge in Brainerd, MN. (If possible for your convenience, PLEASE FLY INTO BRAINERD MINNESOTA.) Please go to www.grandviewlodge.com for more information on our accommodations.
