NOWN FOR ITS EXPANSIVE PRAIRIES, SNOW-CAPPED PEAKS AND
ABUNDANT WILDLIFE, MONTANA HAS BEEN A RETREAT DESTI-
NATION FOR DECADES. Yet, it's also a hidden gem for the international
yoga community.
From Emigrant to Helena to Wolf Creek, part of the allure of a yoga retreat in Mon-
tana is the juxtaposition of cowboys and goddesses, frosty mornings and heated Vinyasa,
elk steak tacos and lentil soup. ese differences make the Treasure State a blending of
cultures and landscapes that allow you to release expectations and be yourself.
ese three retreat destinations, distinct in their offerings, provide guests the
opportunity to hold everything as sacred and reconnect with nature as the greatest
teacher.
