Spring Restorative Yoga & Meditation Retreat

Friday, May 1st to Sunday, May 3rd, 2026

 
This retreat is expertly designed to enable you to deeply relax, heal and re-energize, restoring and nourishing you on every level. Escape with us to the stunning Bloom Holistic Retreat Centre, perfectly situated on miles of quiet lakefront and amid hundreds of acres of private forested land just 20 minutes north of Kingston.
​
Throughout your stay, Leslie will gently and progressively guide you to a deep sense of calm through daily meditation classes, all-level yoga classes, workshops on Yoga Philosophy and Restorative Yoga, as well as her signature Restorative Yoga with Massage sessions.

Invariably the highlight of the retreat, Leslie’s Restorative Yoga with Massage class is the ultimate in relaxation. Enjoy soothing music, candlelight, and massage while you are draped in a cozy blanket and relaxing deeply in fully supported restorative yoga poses. This class will be done at separate times in small groups, ensuring maximum personal attention for everyone. And our RMT will be on-hand throughout the retreat for private massages, if you wish to pamper yourself even further.

Meanwhile, enjoy the best in luxurious accommodations, as well as sumptuous vegetarian meals that will help you feel energized and whole. All meals, accommodation, classes, props and workshops are included. No prior yoga experience is necessary, and all activities are optional, so that you can custom tailor this retreat to be the experience you need most right now for your healing and wellbeing.

Hike the many kilometres of trails, kayak or SUP on the water or take a dip in the lake (weather permitting), relax in the outdoor sauna, or sleep-in to catch up on your rest – this time is a gift to yourself.

The Venue

Bloom Holistic Retreat Centre is located on over 900 acres of Canadian shield land just 20 minutes north of Kingston. The building is newly designed and constructed, replete with floor-to-ceiling windows and stunning architectural elements, and is mindfully oriented to have a view of the expansive lakefront from every room on the main floor: yoga space, living area, dining area and entrance. The property offers 3 kilometres of lakefront on a very low-occupancy lake, hundreds acres of forest with hiking trails, lookout points, fire pit, outdoor sauna and outdoor dining area with pizza oven. It is an oasis like you've never seen before in Ontario!
