Teaching yoga is a calling that asks everything of you—your energy, attention, creativity, and authentic presence. But who fills your well when you're constantly pouring from it? Mary Paffard's Summer Retreat 2026, taking place July 2-7, 2026 (Thursday through Monday) at Spirit Camp in Mendocino County, Northern California, offers yoga teachers five nights to return to student role, to deepen personal practice that teaching draws from, and to earn Yoga Alliance continuing education credits (CEUs) in the process. This professional development intensive qualifies for Yoga Alliance CEU certification (provided upon request at completion), making it valuable for both RYT-200 and RYT-500 teachers maintaining their credentials while actually addressing the deeper need for renewal, inspiration, and reconnection to why you started teaching in the first place. Led by Mary, who directed comprehensive Teacher Training at Yoga Mendocino for a decade (2000-2010) and continues contributing to recognized programs internationally, this retreat offers the rare combination of rigorous personal practice (long asana sessions combining active and restorative work, breathwork, meditation, morning silence) and professional insights that emerge from studying with an educator who literally trained hundreds of teachers. This yoga and mindfulness retreat welcomes experienced practitioners and teachers ready for advanced exploration, comfortable with intensive practice and self-reflection, and seeking the kind of renewal that prevents burnout while reigniting teaching passion.
