October Moon Yoga Retreat

Northern Michigan
Fall Weekend Retreat

Join us October 23-25, 2026
at Sleeping Bear Resort in Lake Ann, MI

Experience a vibrant weekend escape designed to awaken your senses and spark creativity. Hosted by inspired life enthusiast Deb Lanning this intimate retreat blends the beauty of autumn with mindful movement, artistic expression, and time in nature.

You’ll stay in the cozy, rustic‑chic lodgings of Sleeping Bear Resort. Together we’ll explore color both within and all around you, through themed yoga classes, soul‑soothing sound baths, and two art lessons with local artists.

Enjoy nourishing meals prepared by a private chef to fuel the experience and your taste buds. While free time invites you to kayak the waters of Lake Herendeen, enjoy a restorative massage, or wander wooded trails off campus. This is a weekend to connect, create, and infuse a color-filled experience into your autumn. With a bit of luck, we will also have a host of colorful characters to hang with for the weekend!
