THE ART OF LIVING RETREAT CENTER

Host Your Yoga, Meditation, or Spiritual Retreat

Come to a tranquil oasis radiating spiritual inspiration, where every detail is carefully crafted to provide a full-service, all-inclusive experience that uplifts and ignites the soul.

Why host your event here?

Hosting a yoga, meditation, or spiritual retreat is the perfect way to build relationships with your students and share your passion for teaching. At the Art of Living Retreat Center, you and your guests experience the powers of the practices in a transformative and healing space. 

Retreats require an environment that promotes tranquility, mindfulness, and personal growth. Our welcoming center offers all the space, support, and amenities you need to succeed. 

Inspiring Location

Our serene natural environment, with breathtaking vistas and tranquil forests, offers a peaceful backdrop that helps you and your guests disconnect from daily stress and fully immerse in the retreat. The Blue Ridge Mountains provide a sanctuary where the beauty and powerful energy of the land foster a deep connection to the Earth, enhancing well-being through nature, holistic therapies, and mindfulness. 

Our welcoming community further strengthens the sense of belonging and safety, essential for personal transformation.

All-Inclusive

Planning a retreat involves many details, but with us, you only need to bring yourself and your guests. Our experienced team handles everything—from registrations and accommodations to food and seating—so you can focus on teaching and connecting with your guests. 

At the Art of Living Retreat Center, your only job is to bring your passion and people.

The Food

At the heart of any retreat experience is the food. It should be nourishing, vibrant, and served with a holistic intention that assists in a better mind-body connection.

The Purna Dining Hall buffet provides vegetarian breakfast, lunch, and dinner; featuring fresh, local ingredients prepared with love for the planet and the people we feed. We can accommodate most dietary considerations.

Like-Minded Staff & Events

Yoga, meditation, and spiritual retreats are meant to be spaces for relaxation, self-discovery, and physical well-being. It can be difficult to fully immerse when there is a bachelor party going on in the hallway at midnight or a Smith family reunion in the next function room. Equally as hard is being surrounded by staff who don’t share your passions. 

Through a blend of active listening, adaptability, problem-solving, and extensive retreat expertise, our caring staff works collaboratively to ensure you and your guests feel supported, inspired, and safe throughout the entire experience.
