A Yoga + Hula Hoop Retreat
Cedar Cross
Louisburg, NC
June 10-12
LET'S COME HOME TO OURSELVES.
Remember when we were children and our days consisted of playing, exploring and soaking up every possible thing from the world around us? That beautiful feeling of delight when we learned how to do something or made a new friend? Those are the feelings and experiences your hosts dream to reconnect you to and share with you. Join Sam and Montana for a beautiful weekend that invites us all to slow down, step out of comfort zones and step into our power.
​
Root yourself.
Return to play.
Let yourself bloom.
This intentionally crafted retreat was birthed from the belief that everyone deserves the invitation to play. An invitation that is both inclusive and supportive of a collective healing through rates that are affordable. Sam and Montana are honored that they have the ability to offer PLANT, PLAY, BLOOM in alignment with this belief. This invitation is for all.
​
Our time together will be full of sunrises and sunsets, yoga classes with guided meditations, hula hooping lessons and workshops, crafting time, foods that will nourish our bodies, fire pit dancing, back deck relaxation, deeper connection to each other and to ourselves,
and so. much. more!
​
We will be staying at a beautiful retreat center tucked away in Louisburg, North Carolina. The center embodies vast, open space, sitting on over 52 acres of land (!), ideal for doing just what we're here to do: planting, playing, and then blooming. There is an abundance of room to play outside, quiet places to journal and meditate, community spaces to move your body freely, hiking trails to explore, and porches facing both the front and back that invite us to enjoy the now. It is here where we will reconnect to play and come home to ourselves.
ABOUT THE SPACE
CEDAR CROSS
Less than an hour from Raleigh, Cedar Cross offers four miles of trails through 52 acres in the woods of beautiful Franklin County, North Carolina. Bordered by creeks, ponds, and beaver marsh, the property includes a variety of beautiful, natural landscapes.
​
Come be surrounded by the forest and get lost in its abundance. Located in Louisburg, NC this beautiful space was founded and built from the ground up by Montana's own grandparents with the sole intention of being a place of rest, reflection, and renewal.
Plenty of cozy nooks to journal or read in, hiking trails, community gathering spaces, open fields to dance in, a fire pit, porches to practice yoga and rest on, and the endless encouragement to slow down and come home. Cedar Cross holds a sacred energy of freedom to create through crafts, movement, and other self-expressions- which we will cling closely to throughout the weekend.
​
Sam and Montana are beyond excited to share this gorgeous space with you! They are confident that you will love the warm, welcoming and intimate feeling Cedar Cross creates, but also know that feeling will be even more unbelievable just by you bringing your presence! Let's play!

MEET YOUR HOSTS
SAM HITTLE:
E-RYT 500
Sam has been leading yoga classes for seven years in North Carolina, the US Virgin Islands, and virtually, to clients across the nation. She loves wildly, doesn't like fitting in the boxes, and you just may see her pull up to teach on her motorcycle. A goofball at heart, Sam reminds us all to not take things too seriously, chase joy (especially if it takes you across the country on a bicycle) and connect a little deeper to each other and ourselves.
​
MONTANA DARE: CERTIFIED HOOP
LOVE COACH
Montana is a world traveling hula hoop maker and artist. The past few years she has made a new normal out of buying one-way international flights and bringing just a bag, her unicycle, and a casual 30 or so hula hoops. As an aspiring circus performer who learned how to hula hoop in Guatemala, she grooves through life, sharing her authenticity, energy and a love for hoop that invites you to show up as you are, be silly, and play.
