The reviews are in! Here's what trip participants had to say....
TRANSFORMATIONAL. I went into Mary’s retreat with no expectations and a bit of anxiety, as I hadn’t practiced yoga in a while and was nervous to be with a new group, questioning if I’d be understood, I had some insecurities come to the surface. Regardless, I took the leap, knowing if there’s anyone I’d feel comfortable curating a safe space for true, deep retreat, it would be Mary. And let me just say, from the moment I arrived, the entire experience was a dream beyond words. All of the pains of travel were removed and we were quickly whisked away on a journey to a private beach and the most magical oceanfront accommodations. Cozy, plush beds enveloped us and prepared us for a weekend of community, light, love, inspiration, grounding and more healing than I knew possible. Mary was sure to structure our workshops and classes in such an organic way that we were able to experience a deep connectivity both to ourselves and with one another. I got so much out of this weekend and I’ve carried it into my life, I’m moving my body more than ever before. This retreat changed my life, I’ll never miss another. - Maggie May
This retreat was one of the BEST experiences of my life. "Magical" is how I would describe it. Mary Baker is a truly remarkable woman who radiates beauty in her teachings, strength and giving of herself. While the accommodations, food, yoga and location far surpassed my expectations, the connections I made with the other women were the highlight of my trip. Fourteen beautiful souls began the trip as strangers, but left as sisters. This was due in large part to Mary's uncanny ability to create connections. It was an unbelievable experience, and one that I will not soon forget Thank you, Mary, for filling my soul with so much love and goodness. I will be back year after year after year.... - Cheryl W.

More of what our past participants had to say...
This was my first yoga retreat, and it was as magical and life changing as everyone said it was going to be. The icing on top of all of that was the life long friends I now have from this shared amazing experience. I would go again in a heartbeat!!
Amazing life changing experience! Beautiful surroundings with beautiful people. Mary does an excellent job balancing yoga, down time, great food and great conversations with beautiful souls! I would highly recommend this retreat!
This retreat made me feel like a new person. It's like I was able to peel away the gunky, dirty, tired layer of skin from 2021 and emerge refreshed, connected, and ready to realize my new intentions.
I had the best time at Mary Baker’s yoga retreat! The experience exceeded all my expectations! The beautiful, remote location was only outshined by the positive sense of camaraderie from the participants and by the excellent yoga sessions on the beach, led by the strong and beautiful Mary! All participants received useful journals and workbooks for promoting self-reflection.
