Yoga Residency Immersion
Ongoing
For the Yogi who wishes to immerse in the "Yoga Bubble" and accelerate their growth, we offer a 1-4 week Yoga Residency Program at Blue Dragon Hot Yoga School. Practice Hot Yoga weekday mornings with one of our certified teachers, and then enjoy the afternoons swimming with dolphins at the black sand beach or refreshing yourself in the lava-made tide pools. Spend your evenings rewilding yourself at Ecstatic Dance, relaxing at the local spa, or soaking at the geothermally-heated hot springs nearby. Weekends offer the perfect opportunity for a private Hot Yoga session to fine-tune your postures and deepen your practice! Optional excursion to Native Hawaiian Church Sweatlodge, hosted by Hawaiian elder Kalikolehua Kanaele.
