Philosophy of Yoga Retreat

Springbrook QLD

17-20 July 2025

Happiness comes and goes but deep peace strengthens and builds. We can cultivate that.

 

This yoga retreat is for anyone who has a thirst for deep conversation, reverence and devotional reflection. It is for those who are pulled towards philosophical teachings beyond what is offered in the usual 60 minute yoga class.  It is a space where inspiration will bloom and awareness will flourish.


This retreat encompasses the fundamentals of Satsang: a sacred gathering of people motivated to uncover non-dogmatic truth. Ultimately, the ancient teachings offered across these four days and three nights invite you into the most unwavering peace, faith and trust in the process.  The Deepest Surrender.  From this retreat you will re-enter the world rejuvenated and ready to apply seeds of wisdom into the fullest expression of your lives.  These are ancient methods for modern times. 


This retreat will be Yoga Alliance Approved. For those who have completed a 200hr YTT, you can gain up to 15 hrs of YA accreditation through this Retreat.

Showers and toilets are shared between three people.

Meet your teachers

Darci from Australia Yoga Teacher Training (AYTT) and Evie from Kannon Yoga joined professional forces in 2020 when Darci onboarded Evie as a training facilitator for AYTT. Darci saw something unique in Evie - a dedicated and embodied practitioner with extraordinary teaching skills. Together their thirst for yoga, deep conversations about the meaning of life, Eastern philosophies and motherhood bound them on a path that was destined for collaboration. 

In 2022 they began to plan their first retreat ‘The Blue Moon Retreat 2023’. Darci’s extensive retreat hosting experience combined with Evie’s passion and drive culminated into a formidable dynamic full of flair, depth and joy.  

Darci is the founder of Australia Yoga Teacher Training, which delivers life-changing yoga teacher trainings both online and in the Northern Rivers, Australia. Evie has a background in Child Psychotherapy and Eastern Religions, which she weaves into her yoga classes and trainings. Together they co-curate retreats that are profound opportunities for participants to unfold, unpack, and rebuild within the framework of yoga and Eastern philosophy. Participants are encouraged to tune into their own inner compass so that they re-enter the world aligned and rejuvenated.
