So you’re ready to RISE, and enliven your yoga practice throughout the rest of your life? You’ve come to the right place.

Our signature RISE Yoga Immersion programme is held at one of our favourite locations - the ancient mother land of Tauhara retreat Centre - in the potent, powerful centre of NZ’s North Island, Taupo.

Coming together as a like-hearted community of wisdom-seekers, we’ll explore the practices of yoga and awakening: asana, meditation, breathwork, mantra, tantric philosophy, embodied anatomy, and more.

Our signature RISE Yoga Immersion covers a broad range of our most transformative, compelling content on tantrik yoga, yogic practices, and spiritual awakening.

Immersion experiences shared

Ruby

"Sarah, Witnessing the grief circle was one of the most embodied, human experiences i have had the pleasure of observing. It moved me on a vibratory level. I couldn’t make the timing of the circle, and i trust in that intelligence. Still, as witness, it broke me open. Realising the depth of medicine that resides within grief, and how many of us yearn for that, but do not have the capacity to enter it alone. My heart aches for my mum, who feels so alone in her grief. I can see her yearning to enter the void, yet terrified of the crumbling that comes with it. I have tears of gratitude for these teachings. I have never felt as deeply of service as i do when i spring clean my grief. Thankyou for meeting life, to the depth that you do. to your practise, And your all encompassing heart."

"I don't think the completion of this journey has hit me as of yet - perhaps because I so deeply know this journey never really ends. What has landed is how grateful I am to be on the journey with Rise, and you both. From the bottom of my heart I thank you for this truly life-changing experience. I think back to where I was, the person I was, on the bus out to my first re-connect to test the waters with Rise, and the human I have re-remembered over the course of this journey: I feel like now I communicate with and participate in life with emotional sovereignty, instead of feeling like something separate to it. Thank you both for nurturing and helping to unveil this connection to all I am, and for the tools to then share the humble knowledge I have in service with others for a more connected world. There is so much more I could say, that lives beyond language, but I know you hear the reverberation of all that lives unspoken in my soul. With love always xxx"

"You are a beautiful facilitator. I appreciated your realness, authenticity, inner strength and also your soft edges.  I have always felt safe with you in the yoga room and this feeling also translated into the new classroom environment of yesterday.   I marvelled at the relationship you are creating with your children.  I reflected afterwards that if we had all been able to learn the skills of honest conversation, how to express our needs and how to apologise by the age of 9 how different this world would be!"
