Heartwood Facility
Heartwood is a 7-acre retreat style facility which most people find to be unique and very special. It is small and intimate, hosting one program at a time, while at the same time being expansive with diverse spaces that encourage students to connect to nature and our best selves. We have three climate-controlled practice spaces; the yoga center, the lodge and the pavilion. Study spaces include a yoga library, a meditation gazebo, and art workshop. Our outdoor spaces include an award winning Chakra Garden, bamboo meditation grove, Irish wishing tree, 11 circuit labyrinth, 5 elements fire pit, shamanic medicine wheel with yoga practice decks, and places to wander, sit or practice. We also have a lovely boutique in the office with yoga essentials and products. Heartwood is designed to offer a bigger yoga experience, rooted in classical yoga theory and practice.
