Natural Awakenings Richmond

Local Yogis Host Summer Yoga Retreat at Yogaville

Steadiness, Comfort, and Joy: Yogaville, a yoga and wellness retreat with Jonathan Miles, ERYT-200, and Becky Eschenroeder, ERYT-200, RCYT, will take place from July 22 to 24 at the Satchidananda Ashram—Yogaville, in Buckingham, Virginia.

The beautiful Lotus Conference Center will host an all-inclusive weekend of yoga practice, meditation, workshops, great food and fresh air. There will be a workshop each afternoon and evening discussion after dinner. This is an interactive retreat, and the group will begin to cultivate ways in which we can live life as our most passionate, creative and joyful selves.

Miles’ style of yoga might be considered hatha slow, vinyasa flow. His classes are rooted in the compassion of integral yoga, disciplined by ashtanga, with the dance of Jivamukti. In 2010, he co-founded the nonprofit Project Yoga Richmond to spread the joy and benefits of yoga to those with the least access, and to create a stronger, unified yoga community. Eschenroeder, who grew up in Richmond, has been teaching yoga to children since 2008 and to adults since 2010. She lives her life holding a deep belief that it is her responsibility to guide others down this path and help lift them up through action and word.
