We recommend arriving early Friday afternoon by 4pm to check into your lodging (or the night before). Singer is staying at El Cosmico for Thursday and Friday, though there are many lodging options to choose from (they book up for summer though, so snag something soon!)
After our daily yoga sessions you will be able to choose your own adventure:
This small West Texas town is packed with art galleries, shopping, a wellness studio (think massages & facials), hip fine dining and more - all within a few blocks of our yoga home studio for the weekend.
Park your car when you arrive at your lodging: Marfa is a town for walking, taking in the sites or getting creative with your iPhone photography skills.
Cost: $95 per person ($85 by May 15th)
Includes Three Classes + Marfa Yogi Gift Bag
Friday 5:30pm Restorative Hatha Flow (90min) with Singer
Saturday*10am Vinyasa w/ Monika ($20 add-on, signup is with studio)
Saturday 5:30pm Relaxing Restorative (90min) with Singer
Sunday 8:00am Restorative Hatha Flow (90min) with Singer
We will use bolsters, blocks and blankets for support + modifications will be offered if needed (you are welcome to bring extra blankets for extra comfort)
There will be a mix of longer held poses (5-10min per pose) utilizing all of the yoga props for stretching and opening the body gently for the Saturday Restorative session.
The Friday and Sunday sequences will be meant to relieve stress and tension while incorporating gentle strengthening and breath-work to invigorate and refresh the body and mind.
Classes are suitable for every yoga body and modifications/levels will be offered. If you're a beginner, it’s a wonderful way to find the inspiration to start a personal practice. If you’re an experienced yogi, join us for three unforgettable days of yoga practice, relaxation, and self-discovery.
Escape the hustle, and retreat to West Texas, chill-time, and open space for deep breathing and the truest sense of relaxation

PLAN TO BRING YOUR OWN YOGA MAT. Eye pillows and comfy socks for restorative sessions are also nice to have.
“A unique geography creates one of the coolest and sunniest climates in Texas, a place just as well suited for backcountry biking trips at Big Bend Ranch State Park, as to relaxing poolside at the idyllic Thunderbird Hotel where the sleek style of a bygone era still resides. A museum based on the ideas of Donald Judd dares you to think big, really big, as you traverse the grounds of a former military base. And of course a historic hotel, El Paisano, was home to the stars of the famed movie “GIANT” and now serves as the social HQ for Marfa.
Once the sun sets, prepare yourself for yet another light show. It’s also free-all one has to do is look skyward. Whatever your reason for making the long trek to Marfa, it’s a good bet that it’ll be tough to forget. But ultimately, by spending some quality time in this special, truly unique and quirky town, you’ll discover its magic and allure, and come back often.” - http://www.visitmarfa.com/
