Thank you for your interest.
REGISTRATION for this retreat is now CLOSED
“It’s hard to put into words what Squam meant to me this Spring without gushing.
It was magical, inspiring, perfect. It was like letting go
and having everything work out.” – Melissa Jean
Below you will find the offerings for this Spring’s SESSION ONE. Due to the need for social distancing we have created two offerings that are far smaller than our traditional June event.
- For 2021, there will be a maximum of fifty attendees and no more than ten people in class at each of the sessions. Of course, you are welcome to register for both and make one long week out of it, if you like.
- We will have the entire campus available to us so we can spread out appropriately.
- There will be no ART FAIR open to the public Saturday night. We will have a ‘pop-up’ market for teachers and attendees who want to sell some of their work, but it will be very informal and only for the people who are part of the weekend gathering.
Making the decision to attend a Squam event is always a highly personal experience. There is so much to consider — even under the best of times. With concern about being exposed to COVID-19 added into the mix, we trust you will follow the wisdom of your heart. If you have any discomfort about the idea of being in a group environment, please honor that prompt and wait for a future year. Your comfort is essential to a joyful and restorative experience.
There’s really only one way to know if coming to Squam is exactly what you need most: check in with your heart. As we always say, if it’s not a YES, it’s a no. Of course, if your heart is saying YES and your head is saying . . ‘but this sounds like crazypants’ the best thing might be to read some of the raves or take a look at how it went previously. Of course, there is no way to know exactly how it will unfold for you as each path is unique.
What you can plan for: twinkle lights, generous teachers, sweet walks through the woods, open hearts, vintage cottages, loons calling across the lake, laughter rolling up from the dock, time to breathe, night sky full of stars. What you can’t plan for: the mystical connections and unexpected discoveries that will surely find you. Saturday is all about free time for relaxing, hiking, exploring the antique shops, swimming, sitting on the dock, basically doing whatever calls to your heart. And of course, don’t forget the dreamy yoga classes and EXTRAS: all in the works, we’ll be sharing with you in the months ahead.
