2027 Retreat Announcements Coming Soon!

What to Expect
Joining a Radiant Heart Yoga retreat is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and return to yourself. Each retreat blends thoughtfully guided yoga, meditation, nourishing food, time in nature, and expeditions. Long format retreats create space for rest, reflection, and genuine connection. Expect supportive teaching, intentional community, and a rhythm that allows you to breathe more deeply, on and off the mat.
We blend guided moments, exploration, and space to reflect, so the experience feels both focused and fluid.
❋ Intentional Structure
Connection is at the heart of this experience. Through shared practice and presence, you’ll learn more about yourself and one another, growing stronger together along the way.
❋ Collaborative Energy
Led by experienced teachers who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.
❋ Expert Facilitation
The retreat is held in a beautiful setting that reflects the local culture, inviting a deeper connection to place. Time and space are intentionally woven to honor the land, its rhythms, and the traditions that shape it.
❋ Beautiful Settings
Our events prioritize comfort, safety, and respect, so you can show up as you are and fully engage in the adventure.
❋ A Supportive Space
Nourishing meals, comfortable accommodations, and thoughtfully curated excursions are all included, allowing you to relax, explore, and fully immerse yourself in the journey.
❋ Room, Board, and Experiences

Retreat Teacher/Facilitator
Chris Morehead
Chris came to yoga through personal struggle, discovering in his practice a way to sit with the fears and insecurities he once tried to outrun. After finding home at Zen Yoga Garage in Chicago, he earned his 200-hour certification there and later completed his 300-hour training with Meghan Currie in the Nicaraguan jungle, an experience that deeply shaped his path.
Now a 500+ hour E-RYT, Chris teaches vinyasa-inspired movement alongside yin and restorative yoga. With a background in circus arts and contortion, he weaves creativity and expression into purposeful, alignment-focused classes that blend longer holds, breath-conscious flow, and playful inversions.
Above all, he hopes you return home from a Radiant Heart Yoga retreat with a lighter heart, a deeper connection to yourself, and maybe a few laughs. His classes are thoughtfully challenging yet accessible, designed to create length in the body and connection to your soul. As one student put it, “Chris makes me feel my feelings! And I love it.”
