Q. What style and level of yoga do you offer at your retreats?
A. I offer gentle hatha and restorative yoga suitable for beginners and all levels, and welcoming and inclusive of all bodies. Props are available to provide support and assist with balance.
Q. Do I have to participate in all activities on the retreat schedule?
A. No. This time is meant for you to enjoy, which means you can participate in as much or as little as you wish. You may find yourself feeling energized and wishing to socialize, explore and move your body. Or you may find yourself wishing to rest and enjoy the quiet slower pace of island life.
Q. Are you able to accommodate special dietary requirements?
A. Yes. I will be reaching out to retreat participants a month before the retreat to ask about dietary requirements. Let me know and I will work with the retreat kitchen to do the best we can to accommodate your needs.
Q. How do I get to Galiano Island?
Getting to the retreat at Galiano Oceanfront Inn is your responsibility. Please plan ahead by visiting the Galiano Chamber of Commerce Getting to Galiano site to plan your transportation. If you wish to carpool with other retreat participants, please look at the carpooling google document that will be shared with retreat participants ahead of the retreat.
Q. What is your retreat cancellation policy?
A. No refunds will be given for retreat reservations. In the event that you need to cancel more than 30 days before the retreat a credit will be added to your account less a 5% administration fee. Credits are not transferable to other offerings or other individuals. No credits will be provided within 30 days of the retreat. If the retreat is cancelled at any point by Arbutus Yoga or Galiano Oceanfront Inn & Spa you will receive a full refund.
