Instructors
Shannon Red Cloud

Shannon began her yoga journey in 2003. Her love for Bikram yoga accelerated her undeniable calling to become an instructor. She completed her 500-hour training at BYCI Headquarters in 2004 to eventually begin the process of pursuing her wildest dream of opening the first yoga studio in her most cherished community of The Dalles, Oregon. She later went on to open a second studio in Hood River. Today she has a variety of certifications in many different styles, has started a non-profit kids yoga program in schools & also enjoys teaching at Google, the local jail, schools & both of her studios.
Amie DiGennaro
5 Certificates
Show
Amie's interest in yoga began in 2006 while investigating methods to control severe back pain. Although she didn't instantly love hot yoga, Amie did love the pain relief that a consistent hot yoga practice awarded her. The physical benefits of yoga were obvious to Amie but what unfolded was a deeper practice of self observation and connectivity. In the summer of 2010, Amie completed a 200 hour teacher training at CorePower Yoga in Portland, OR, and has been teaching classes at Pure Yoga ever since.
Holly Thomas, PHD.
As a former scientist with a PhD in Physiology, Holly loves exploring the area where science and the spiritual practice of yoga overlap and is ever curious about natural ways to tap into our innate powers of holistic well being.She is a RYT 500 and has also completed iRest® 1 training and loves guiding yoga nidra as a pathway to well being and expansive consciousness. She is developing yoga/nature tours and workshops to combine explorations of inner and outer nature.
Retreat location
Nestled up against the Mt. Hood National Forest and seated on 40 private, peaceful acres. Enjoy scenery for days, in this gently rolling landscape adorned with a stunning panoramic view of Mt. Hood. Absorb the abundant serenity as you journey from acquaintance to friend, understanding to integration, and growth to fruition.
These internal shifts beautifully correspond to the visual seasonal changes you'll experience throughout your stay. From the vibrant colorful burst of wildflowers, shedding of fall leaves to coat the ground, or new crystal snow, the innate beauty within and around you overflows like a fresh natural spring in this relaxing, transformational experience.
