Full Moon Hike ‘n’ Yoga

Four days With Kathy

July 06-10, 2025

only 12 available spots

Kathy discovered the magic of Pictou Island while attending a Wooden Tents retreat in 2019, and knew she would be back - as an instructor. She is returning for her fifth year of leading wonderful yoga classes and fun invigorating daily hikes across beaches, over rocks, and sometimes even through a bit of water - hopefully making it all the way around the island! And this year your food will be ready for you when you get back!

Unplug, unwind, and recharge by starting each morning with a session of energizing yoga and meditation before setting off together to explore the extraordinary shorelines, beautiful beaches, and many special places. Challenge yourself while soaking up the sunshine, nature, and stillness of the island. Enjoy an ocean swim in the warmest waters north of Virginia and cap off each day with more yoga and meditation to soothe your body and ease your mind.

The retreat closes out with a full moon on July 10, lending its aura to Kathy’s retreat. Learn how yoga practice in conjunction with the energy and brightness of the full moon can help release what is no longer good for you. Let it guide you in manifesting the things that you want in life. Enjoy your summer and take a step in the right direction. And if you want full moon value, you can extend your stay that extra night.

A note from Kathy: This year marks my 5th trip around the island and while the challenge may not be for the faint of heart, it is one that tests both physical endurance and mental strength. Each year the scenic shoreline provides an optimal setting to test our ability to connect with nature and build trust deeply within ourselves that manifest as confidence. For many, this cultivates a profound sense of gratitude that will fuel your resilience long after you return to everyday life on the mainland.
