2025 - 2026 RETREATS

Groundworks
Gardiner, New York

Join me in this magical location in Gardiner, New York. The home and retreat space of my co-creator and retreats partner,
homebirth midwife and natural foods chef, Kristen Leonard and her husband Frank. 
“Place and space can inspire” Groundworks primary goal is to provide cost free residencies supporting people such as artists
and activists who are working on projects that they value.  
Through the seasons we explore what each moment in time offers, both in the season of our  lives and in that of the world around us. Please read as each weekend has its own theme and specificity.  Some have guest co-teachers as well.

Portions of your room and board fees go towards supporting these residencies. Limited scholarships also available, please inquire.
