This is a one-of-a-kind and wonderful yoga retreat. You can pay for a campsite, a dorm room, or a private cabin. You will get amazing yoga classes, beautiful views, delicious vegetarian food. Options for hikes, kayaking, hot tub. My favorite part is no one is trying to convert you to anything.

It's literally crazy that a yoga center only allows students that had injected themselves with a complex and toxic chemical compound that literally kills and harms people regardless of age. It's the opposite of health, peace, compassion or clarity. It's loyally slaving to big pharma. If the so called enlightened people don't understand the harm from vaccines, and mandate them, then where can people find solace and light? At least now we see the organizers' true nature. So disappointed.

Shoshoni is a truly magical place! I enjoyed every part of my weekend there, loving the freedom to participate in whatever spoke to me. The location creates a sense of calm in my heart with its serene beauty. The delightful and healthy food is made with love and the yoga instruction is deeply-rooted and true. Our accommodations were clean and spacious. I enjoyed the fire ceremony and meditation with kirtan in the gorgeous temple, even as a person who does not ascribe to religion.

One windy day my friends and I puttered about in the art cabin, and the other we hiked to the Buddha Rocks and Rollins Peak with its impressive 360 views. Most of all, everyone who nurtured this experience for us had a kindness and lightness that shone through from all they practice there. My friends and I had a relaxing, joyous, and connected experience that rippled into our lives after the visit. Thank you, Shoshoni.

Shoshoni is my favorite place on Earth! I've been visiting for 12 years on yoga retreats and as a work study student. The meditation practices keep me coming back, because they are real and authentic. My life is so much better when I meditate and Shoshoni taught me how. I love the lovingly prepared food, the kind residents and teachers, the beautiful temples filled with sacred art, and the sweet dogs who will hike with you on the trails of the 200-acre property.

Remember a headlamp, snow boots, scarf & mittens, long skirts or dress slacks for temple, and a swim suit for the sauna and hot tub. Only AT&T has service and there's wi-fi in all the buildings, but do yourself a favor and put your email on out of office, put your phone on airplane mode, and tell loved ones to call the office if they really need to reach you. This is the perfect place for introverts and highly sensitive people to unwind and turn their attention inside.

I first came to Shoshoni to finish my 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training in 2006. Shoshoni has deep roots in Yogic Tradition. It was through Shoshoni's structure that I developed my own structure for my spiritual practice. I've come to community (sangha) gatherings here over the years and I've always left feeling uplifted with my energetic bucket filled. I love the fire temple, it is such a magical space. The food is so nourishing. The staff is full of love.

Shoshoni is a unique and magical place. Not only is beautiful and the people there are amazing, but the programs are the best you can find. It is the real thing. The yoga trainings are amazing! Is something you shouldn't miss. Everyone should go at least one time.
