Find The Space You Need

Reset and rediscover yourself

Escaping from our day-to-day routine offers an invaluable opportunity to create intentional space for rest, reflection, and renewal. Creating space in our lives is the foundation of actually experiencing them. And in a world where filling our time is valued over emptying it, creating space for ourselves is a rare and courageous act. It is what allows us to snap out of autopilot and allows us to begin to really notice how we are actually doing.

Christian offers mindfulness, meditation and yoga retreats and courses as a chance to unplug from distractions, quiet the noise of the world, and listen attentively to the whispers of our hearts. His retreats and courses offer a unique opportunity to immerse in the experience of his practice and restore our wellbeing at the same time. His retreats and courses are hosted both online or in idyllic locations for an even greater sense of escape and immersion.

Casa de Cura

Casa de Cura is an off-grid retreat space deeply rooted in the earth and authenticity. Christian and his partner Katie have created a dedicated retreat space to gently guide you to embrace the slow, soft, and simple rhythm of mountain life - bringing you back to nature to return home to yourself.

Casa de Cura is quite literally the home of healing - where movement unites with ritual - and has been lovingly built with only one intention: to build community and connection.

Our healing village is the embodiment of yin, the antidote to the modern fast paced life. Running and hosting retreats year-round, we welcome all people, modalities, and lineage to practice with us in our sacred space.
