Arizona is calling.
Adventure, yoga, ancient landscapes, incredible food—and enough open space to actually enjoy where we are.
Hosted by Jillian Romano + Christiane Umphrey
More than a retreat
A week that feels full—not rushed.
We’ll hike through red rock and canyon country, move and restore together, share beautiful meals, look into a true dark sky, and leave room for the kind of wandering that makes a trip feel like your own.
This retreat is hosted by Jillian Romano and Christiane Umphrey. We can’t wait to share this adventure with you.

The adventure level

This retreat includes elevation, uneven terrain and a meaningful hiking day at the Grand Canyon. You do not need to be the fastest person on the trail. You do need to prepare, carry water and choose the turnaround that is right for your body.

Questions before you say yes?

If you choose to fly into Phoenix or another airport, we will provide the retreat-house address and you will be responsible for arranging transportation to and from the house.
Do I have to complete every hike?
No. We will name shorter turnaround options and support wise choices. The itinerary does include active days, elevation and uneven trails, so preparation matters.
What meals do I purchase?
Only two lunches: Friday in Sedona and Saturday in Flagstaff. All other listed meals are included.
What will the weather be like?
Late April can bring warm sun, cold mornings and rapidly changing conditions. Layers, sun protection and sturdy footwear are essential.
Can I come alone?
Absolutely. Many Awesome Adventures travelers arrive solo and leave with a new community. Room options make it easy to choose your comfort level.

From February 2 through March 23, 2027, any refund will be partial and based on the nonrecoverable deposits and expenses already paid for your reservation.
