A soulful Southern escape for whole-body renewal
Blue Lotus Yoga Studio Presents
Strength & Serenity in Savannah, Georgia
A Women's Wellness Retreat
October 8-12, 2026
A well-deserved reset for your mind, body, and soul
Escape to the charm of Savannah, Georgia, where cobblestone streets, sweeping live oaks, and Southern hospitality set the stage for a transformative women’s wellness journey.
Each day will begin with a grounding yoga practice designed to help you strengthen your body and quiet your mind. Beyond the mat, your days will be spent exploring the beauty and history of Savannah—wandering through lush gardens, historic squares, and the vibrant riverfront.
And because this is a Blue Lotus retreat, unforgettable culinary experiences that celebrate both nourishment and indulgence are to be expected!
This retreat is an invitation to slow down, connect with new friends, and rediscover the balance of strength and serenity.

The fine print
Rates include the aforementioned number of meals and activities with the exception of optional excursions that will be available for an additional cost. We intend to use the vendors outlined in the itinerary. While we do our best to adhere to the itinerary, traveling anywhere requires flexibility, and changes to specific interactions and other activities may occur, particularly if specified vendors or activities become unavailable. In addition, some changes may occur in our itineraries due to inclement weather and changes to timetables and transport routes, which can happen with little notice. The order and timing of included activities in each location may also vary. Each day we will update you on the program and keep you informed throughout the trip. Please note that while unlikely, hotels and restaurants, while confirmed, are also subject to change due for unforeseen circumstances. Airfare is not included in the total, and attendees are responsible for booking their own flights.
