The ultimate fall girl yoga retreat
Yep! It’s exactly what it sounds like…
Every day starts with soulful yoga and a pumpkin spiced latte! Wear cute fall fashion while you go antiquing and to the farmers market. Put on your flannel for foliage hikes and apple picking.
Get professional instagram swoon worthy photos on top of a mountain enjoy a farm(ers market) to table dinner with local cider or rosé. This is the girl party yoga retreat! AND no one is going to make fun of you for being basic.
Also known as the #basicbitchyogaretreat.
Okay maybe that’s a little offensive so we’re just going to call it the pumpkin spiced yoga retreat!
You know it’s exactly the answer to “how do I have the best fall weekend ever with my girlies…?”
I’ve been fortunate to join in on 3 retreats so far (Costa Rica, Morocco, Bali). This woman, Lauren, yoga instructor, entrepreneur, (many more ‘hats’ to add) will lead you on the most transformative experience -I guarantee it.

Lauren is one of those women you meet and you just go: d a m n. She has so much fire within her, and she exudes that into the world to help curate her dream life, and to help others do that for themselves. She is another woman who really embodies the narrative of lifting others while we climb. I saw so much of the mantras I hold dear to my heart reflected back in hers. Self love. Growth. Persistence. Celebration of self + others. Divine femininity. She embodies all of this and so much more…

The location
Historic and gorgeous Kingston, Ontario was Canada’s first capital. Today it is a charming but vibrant little city that boasts incredible restaurants, tons of local boutiques and an exciting music scene!
Located just 2.5 hours from Toronto, Montreal and Syracuse, NY and 2 hours from Ottawa, Kingston is a perfect and central spot to enjoy this girl’s weekend.
Our hombase for this Pumpkin Spiced Yoga Retreat will be the Secret Garden Inn. All the food is made in house and from local ingredients wherever possible. This revamped historic mansion is the picture of charm.
Join Lauren as she shares with you why she loves this little part of the world. Bring your girlfriends for an epic weekend of laughs and memories!
“I still can’t help but be filled with so much gratitude, love and happiness. Lauren Rudick brought together a new family through her yoga teachings and joyous light and openness as a person. I’m so glad to have met and learned from her. I’m so glad to have learned from every single person I met there. So many laughs and good times. What an amazing week. I left with a new outlook. I feel refreshed and focused on what I want in life.”

“A six-day yoga retreat with Lauren Rudick – the twinkly eyed Canadian renowned for her practical and light-hearted approach to the discipline promised everything I could of wished for. Meditation, yoga and travel in a city bursting with magic and mystery. There was also a chance of meeting ten other women with the same interests, who like me were on a mission to find more balance in their lives. I had no idea what the journey would entail but this was the challenge. Instinct told me to take a leap of faith… ….Lauren’s main goal is to practice love while practicing yoga – something she radiates in every form from the moment she wakes up in the morning – and to push your-self without punishing yourself.”
