Reconnect with Nature, Reconnect with Yourself 🌿✨
WELLNESS AND WILDERNESS -
Step away from the rush of everyday life and return to what truly grounds you — movement, mindfulness, and the quiet wisdom of nature. Each experience is thoughtfully created by Candace Csordas, award-winning fitness leader, yoga instructor, and outdoor lover, to help you renew your energy, rediscover balance, and feel deeply alive in every season.
Designed for professionals, retirees, and wellness-minded adults 50 and over, these small-group experiences blend education, inspiration, and strength— inviting you to move with purpose, connect with others, and feel your best inside and out.
🌲 Wilderness Wellness Retreats
Escape to tranquil natural settings where you can breathe, move, and simply be. These small-group retreats blend yoga, hikes, nourishing meals, and mindful self-care rituals in a serene, supportive environment. Each retreat offers a unique mix of movement, rest, creativity, and seasonal outdoor adventures — from paddleboarding and kayaking to biking or snowshoeing — leaving you recharged, centered, and inspired.
💫 Wellness Workshops
Bring wellness into your everyday life through interactive, heart-centred workshops that explore fitness, nutrition, self-care, and community. Topics vary with the seasons and include stress relief, mindful movement, and holistic well-being, combined with hands-on experiences like meditation, breathwork, or DIY wellness creations.
These sessions are also available as custom private workshops — perfect for bachelorette gatherings, small corporate wellness days, or friend-group experiences that blend fun, connection, and self-care in a refreshing, memorable way.
Candace also offers specialty educational series such as:
- Bone Health: What You Need to Know + Exercises That Support It
- Power Pelvis: Strengthening Your Pelvic Floor Through Knowledge & Movement
- Weight Loss Beyond 50: How lose and maintain your ideal weight
Each workshop blends practical education with movement and mindfulness — empowering you to understand your body and take charge of your well-being. Look for these in the Fall, Winter and Spring.
