This is a two-night, three-day all-inclusive bohemian luxury fitness retreat at Valley Rock Inn.
This retreat is an invitation to reconnect with yourself, the land, and the cycles of nature—to celebrate the fullness of life and the fire within.
Join us for a two-night, three-day all-inclusive bohemian luxury fitness retreat at the bucolic Valley Rock Inn, where we’ll prepare body and spirit for the longest day of the year—a time of illumination, expansion, and deep connection with nature. This is not just a retreat of rest and ritual, but one of movement and challenge. Each day will include invigorating 2–3 hour guided hikes to crystal-clear lakes, sweeping mountain-top perches, and forested trails—designed to awaken the body and nourish the soul. Set in a serene, wooded sanctuary in the Lower Hudson Valley, this gathering invites you to embrace the vibrant energy of the summer solstice through dynamic physical exploration, creativity, and ceremony. This retreat is an invitation to reconnect with yourself, the land, and the ancient rhythms of nature—to celebrate the fullness of life and the fire within. As the sun reaches its peak, we too are called to embrace our own vitality, power, and inner radiance. The summer solstice is a threshold, a moment to pause, reflect, and align with the abundant energy of the season. Through movement, stillness, sound, and ceremony, you will be supported in releasing what no longer serves you and stepping fully into your own light. Whether you come seeking renewal, inspiration, or the exhilaration of a physical and spiritual reset, this experience will hold space for your transformation. You will be surrounded by like-minded souls, each on their own journey, yet all drawn by a shared love of nature, movement, and meaning. This is a retreat for those who crave a return to their elemental selves—who feel most alive with mud on their boots, wind in their hair, and sun on their skin. You’ll leave with a deeper connection to yourself, a sense of harmony with the natural world, and the empowerment to move forward with intention and joy.
After spending decades immersed in the fast-paced energy of New York City, I felt the call toward something deeper—something wilder. Trading the buzz of the city for the resonant frequency of the trees, I moved to the woods to reconnect with the rhythms of nature, finding a balance between my life in venture capital and the grounding presence of the natural world.
Living in this way has been a journey of rediscovery, a reminder that true abundance isn’t just measured in external success, but in stillness, connection, and the beauty of a well-lived life. I’ve been fortunate to cultivate deep friendships with extraordinary people—artists, seekers, and guides—who have helped shape this path with wisdom and creativity. This solstice retreat is a reflection of that journey, a space to bring together the people, practices, and elements that have enriched my own life, so they can nourish yours as well.
