FALL ARIZONA DESERT RETREAT
Grace Grove Retreat Center
October 9-13, 2019
Pack your bags.... we’re heading Southwest for an unforgettable 5-day retreat to Sedona, the Red Rocks and Grand Canyon! While we (Om Tribe’s Co-Founders, Randi Cerini and Erica Chen) LOVE to add new stamps to our passports, we’ve decided to leave them home this time and explore a true wonder of the world, right here in the USA. We cannot wait to share this experience with all of you, and hope you’ll join us on this next adventure. We will be discovering the nature of the desert, witnessing beautiful sunsets, bonding with new likeminded yogis, eating delicious, intentionally prepared food by our favorite returning chef, Alexandra Radoaca, visiting a local winery, hiking, swimming, star gazing galore, and of course practicing lots of yoga!
We will stay at the very zen and serene, Grace Grove Retreat Center, in Cornville, AZ, just a 20 minute drive from Sedona. We we will have 1-2 daily yoga sessions, both indoor and outdoor, to enjoy our beautiful surroundings. Grace Grove Retreat Center is an adobe style home set on a 25 lush acres within the desert. Oak Creek, our swimming hole for the week, wraps around 3/4 of the property which also boasts a sauna, rooftop for top notch stargazing, outdoor fireplace, swings, hiking trails, and volleyball court. The home has 3 full bathrooms, 7 bedrooms and 11 beds (space is very limited). Chef Alex will be preparing 3 family-style meals a day for us, minus one meal we’ll enjoy out on the town. Check out photos and further information below.
