2026 RETREAT DATES: AUGUST 21-23, 2026

Reconnect with your playful side at the Fountain of Yoga Retreat — a weekend that feels like summer camp for grown-ups, set in a beautiful lakeside retreat center in Quebec.

Held at Jouvence, near Magog, this retreat takes place on 194 acres along the shores of Lake Stukely in Mont-Orford National Park. Think fresh air, canoeing and paddleboarding, forest trails, late-summer stargazing, laughter with new friends, nourishing meals, and the kind of freedom most people haven’t felt since they were kids.

Enjoy this opportunity to unplug, move your body, laugh hard, play outside, and remember what it feels like to genuinely enjoy yourself without pressure or performance.

Your days can include:

Light-hearted yoga classes
Swimming, hiking, kayaking, and outdoor adventures
Gourmet meals shared with good company
Campfire energy and meaningful connection
Time to rest, recharge, and simply be

John will lead spirited and accessible yoga classes throughout the weekend, helping you reconnect with the joyful, youthful energy that already lives within you.

Come solo or bring friends. Leave refreshed, inspired, and more connected to your fun-loving inner self — just in time to savor the final beautiful weekend of summer.
