We will incorporate daily movement, self care, healthy eats, time to relax, etc.. That being said, I firmly believe that JOY is a nutrient & a necessary part of our wellbeing, so we will also indulge & prioritize pleasure & having fun (fun raises our vibration!).

Why attend a retreat?

Retreats give you the opportunity to press pause on daily responsibilities & stress. They allow us to slow down & receive. It’s wild how much inner peace, sparks of creativity & mental clarity comes when we’re in state of receiving.

If you find yourself having issues with sleep, digestion, anxiety, holding onto extra weight, headaches, etc., your body is telling you it needs a break! Your nervous system is likely in fight or flight.

A retreat provides you with the opportunity to tap into the parasympathetic nervous system where our body can truly rest, digest & heal. Simply put, retreats are great for our mental & physical health. Many people invest in vacations where they’re sedentary most of the time, drinking alcohol & they feel like they need a vacation after their vacation to recoup. This is not that kind of experience! I guarantee you will feel refreshed, nourished & inspired when you leave this retreat.

About Me

Hi, I’m Cortney! I’ve lived in Charleston, SC for the past 15 years & everyday I wake up feeling so grateful to live in such a beautiful & lively city.

I’ve been a massage therapist for 17 years & absolutely love the healing arts & bodywork.

I’ve been a yoga teacher for 15 years & have over 1000 hours of certification in Ashtanga, Power Yoga, Laughing Lotus Yoga & Jivamukti. My teaching is a unique blend of all of my training, lots of hands on assists, powerful playlists & spiritual teachings.

A year & a half ago I bought a home in downtown, Charleston with a completely private Airbnb on my property. This new endeavor has been so much fun for me & I quickly became a Super Host & my Suite was voted “Guest Favorite” on their app.

I’ve been hosting yoga retreats for 8 years including sold out international retreats in Costa Rica, Mexico, Southern France & local retreats in Folly Beach, Isle of Palms & Lake Keowee. I love retreats so much (facilitating & attending). So much growth & magic happens when we step away from the responsibilities of every day life to focus on self care & filling our own cup.

I’ve been coaching women through my course Craft Your Path: A Journey of Self Discovery, Truth & Purpose for 8 years. This course has gotten women incredible results in their life, work & relationships & the content is timeless. My coaching has also included, branding, relationships, building a heart centered business, health & wellness coaching, etc..

I’ve mentored yoga teachers for 10+ years. I assist them in finding their voice, building confidence, creating workshops & retreats, creative & intelligent sequencing, hands on assists, branding, social media, etc.. Basically everything you need to create a fun & lucrative career as a yoga teacher.

I’ve completed a Level 1 Astrology class & Level 1 & 2 Human Design Classes. Astrology & human design are huge passions of mine. God made the stars & they have such a beautiful way of providing us with a deep understanding of our inner workings. I offer readings, workshops & deep dives into both of these ancient arts & sciences.

I’m so excited to combine my eclectic work & life experience to create an epic retreat experience for you! This private retreat feels like the most amazing & aligned offer for me because it literally combines EVERYTHING that I do & love, all wrapped up in one amazing package.

Reviews

“Cortney is a master of all she does. Having the privilege of witnessing her in her zone of genius, sharing what she loves with the world & being in her potent presence is such a gift & is sure to transform & alchemize any part of you or your life that feels challenging, stuck or unclear.”

—Emily Cassel

Business Strategist & Leadership Coach

“…Cortney taught the most thoughtful yoga class I’ve taken outside of Santa Monica Yoga Works and Yoga Glo in years…The most challenging classes I’ve ever taken hold postures (often the “basic” ones) and encourage you to dive deep — the challenge lies in being present in the quiet discomfort, and not flying past it in a whirl of push-ups. The class I took yesterday had a beautiful forearm (take a break from your wrists) and upper back theme. By the time forearm stand was offered (read: taught), my body was hungry for the focused challenge. And on a side note: I was drenched in sweat and sore the next day. Meatsuit tended to: check. But the absolutely best part: once I came out of Savasana I couldn’t move. I had to stay put, be quiet, and absorb. And voila: asana as the gateway to meditation and knowing yourself verses checking off your daily burn. Thank you, Cortney. You made me a happy yogi.”

“It is hard to find the words to explain my experience at Cortney‘s Yoga Retreat. It was truly the best weekend of my life and for the first time ever, I actually felt like myself. I discovered exactly who I am and exactly who I want to be. I found my soul tribe, my sisters, the women that I have been searching for my entire life. The women who understand me. Women who accept me. And the women who positively challenge me to be the best version of myself. This experience was way better than anything I ever could have imagined. In addition to having a great time in meeting excellent new friends, I was healed by the amazing @healingwithlulu and ate the most incredible vegan meals prepared by @farrahrachel! I learned so much and was connected with the sisters I’ve been searching for my whole life. I feel so incredibly blessed and I’m so grateful you sexy sisters shared your knowledge, love, and friendship!”
