Not everyone is meant for the kind of conservation and wildlife retreat we lead, we understand that. Our retreats aren’t about ticking destinations off a list, chasing fads or learning a perfect forearm stand; they’re about stepping away and getting comfortable with the uncomfortable, they’re about reconnecting with nature and it’s unique wildlife and experiencing moments that quietly stay with you long after you return home. If you’ve found your way here, something in you may already be listening for that kind of experience. Here are seven signs a Yoga For The Wild conservation and wildlife-based retreat might be exactly what you’re ready for.

In August 2024 we jetted off to Zimbabwe for our very first yoga and conservation retreat. Zimbabwe is Kat’s homeland and she spent 16 years living and traveling in this incredible country. In 2022, following our Kenya yoga retreat, Laura explored Mana Pools in Northern Zimbabwe for the first time and was blown away by the wilderness and the wildlife of this hidden gem. So began our love affair with Zimbabwe.
