The retreat was awesome. There was lots to do and learn like paddleboarding and yoga workshops. When I arrived home I was like a kid who had just come from summer camp, full of we did this and that, we ate this and that, and I made new friends. I can’t wait to do it again! My husband just smiled and let me go on and on. I would recommend it to everyone, even the beginners.
Featuring 5 days and 4 nights of yoga, nature, adventure, relaxation, good food, and connection with a wonderful group of women.
Embrace a completely unplugged experience! Cell reception is unavailable at Northern Edge Algonquin and satellite internet is reserved for emergencies only. But guess what? Getting a break from digital interruptions honestly feels incredibly refreshing! You will be fully present to enjoy the beauty of each day.
During the retreat, you’ll have the chance to enjoy some yoga! No prior experience needed—just a readiness to move and stretch. Whether you’re trying out balancing poses on the dock or winding down with evening stretches, you’ll be in a welcoming and supportive environment.
In the evenings, we gather in the yoga studio for Sweet Dreams Yoga—a soothing blend of calming music and gentle stretches. This class leaves you with a deep sense of relaxation, as your body is lengthened from head to toe, preparing you for a wonderful night’s sleep.
Amy was a wonderfully considerate hostess. Amy checked in with me knowing that I had limitations in my ability to do the yoga. I truly appreciated that.
I participated in the retreat during my second trimester of pregnancy, and Amy ensured that I could easily and enjoyably participate in all the yoga classes. The morning yoga on the dock was especially beautiful. It was all around an amazing experience!
Amy’s yoga retreat was the perfect balance of planned activities and relaxation! The yoga classes were tailored to different needs and it was a great was to de-stress!
Amy’s gentle skilled leadership fostered an inclusive yoga program. The retreat provided a bounty of activities and options encouraging each to participate as they choose. Exploring skills and surroundings, participating in yoga practice, enjoying high quality tasty local foods prepared on site. Accommodations and site were wonderful.
Prepare to be blown away by the food! Each meal is exceptional, prepared with such care and attention to detail. The variety is impressive, and to top it off, the meals are not only tasty but also healthy and nutritious. You really have to come and experience it for yourself to fully understand just how amazing mealtime is at the Edge!
The Northern Edge Retreat was more than I expected. The location was so relaxing and beautiful. It gave the feeling of being away from the world but connected to nature. I met many wonderful women and shared some special moments with them. Amy planned an amazing retreat.

I love the adventure and relaxation that being in nature brings, which is why I’m thrilled to host my Unplug and Explore Retreat at Northern Edge Algonquin for the third time in 2025.
In June I attended my first “Be Well with Amy” Yoga retreat at Northern Edge Algonquin and it exceeded my expectations! It was like being welcomed back home after a long absence from the moment we arrived. The whole weekend went off without a hitch and it was relaxing and very enjoyable. The resort staff and facility are amazing…and Amy is the perfect host and made you feel at home and relaxed. A great way to reset before getting back to the hustle and bustle of real life. I look forward to the next weekend getaway with Amy! Thanks again!
The retreat was amazing! Amy put a lot of thought and planning into making sure that the retreat was enjoyable for everyone, and it showed! The location was awesome, everything I hoped for, and the food at the Edge exceeded my expectations! The yoga sessions were well spaced throughout the day with good variety and Amy ensured that she explained all variations for anyone needing them. The pace of the retreat and variety of activities were perfect! Amy and the co-facilitator Sarah worked very well together and used a fluid, go-with-the-flow style schedule with input from participants that ensured the best experience for all! I would highly recommend attending a yoga retreat with Amy!
