Ayurveda Seasons

Seasonal Day Retreats for Modern Well-Being


Ayurveda Seasons is a series of day-long wellness retreats offered by the Yoga Center of Columbia, each one timed to a turning point in the year. Led by Ayurvedacharya Rimmi Singh, these intimate gatherings blend Ayurvedic wisdom with yoga, meditation, nourishing food, and hands-on self-care — all designed to help you move through the seasons feeling balanced, grounded, and energized.

Ayurveda teaches that each season carries its own qualities and that small, intentional shifts in how we eat, move, and care for ourselves can make a meaningful difference in how we feel. These retreats bring that teaching to life in a warm, supportive setting just minutes from the studio.

Spring is a time to shake off winter's heaviness and welcome clarity and lightness. The spring retreat focuses on renewal — uplifting yoga, a warm Ayurvedic lunch, and your own take-home Kitchari Kit to continue the seasonal reset at home.

Summer invites us to cool down and soften the pace when Pitta's heat builds. The summer retreat offers cooling yoga practices, a refreshing Ayurvedic meal, and a custom Summer Spice Blend to help you stay balanced through the warmest months.

Fall calls for grounding as Vata's airy energy rises. The fall retreat warms and steadies the system with nourishing yoga, a hearty Ayurvedic lunch, and a Fall Spice Blend crafted to carry you through the transition with calm and ease.

Each retreat stands on its own — attend one or join them all. No prior experience with Ayurveda or yoga is needed. Space is limited to keep each gathering intimate and personal.

So Much More Than I Thought

I expected to learn more about asana, pranayama and meditation, but it was so much more. This was a deep dive into learning about the self and how I want to show up in the world as a human and a yoga teacher. My fellow teachers-in-training became very close and supportive through this program. The instructors were so knowledgeable and found the perfect balance between serious and fun. I had a great time, even though it was a lot of inner work as well as studying and practice. I highly recommend this program not only for people wanting to teach yoga, but also for those who would like to deepen their personal practice.

The Best Possible

The RYT 200 program at the Yoga Center of Columbia is nothing that you would expect it to be, in the best possible way. My personal practice and teaching has become richer, deeper, and more respectful, both of myself and my students. Learning how the physical parts of yoga (asana, pranayama) work inside of the larger yogic tradition was enlightening. The teachers respect the students in a way that I have not experienced before. That respect was something I can carry on into my own teaching and daily life and I am eternally grateful to have learned it.

Transformative

This teacher training with Kelly and Lucy has been a transformative and rewarding experience. It was not just about any one thing about yoga like asana or teaching, it was about all of yoga! It is a well thought out course, and the monthly meetings really allowed me to process everything, let the teachings marinate before we went on to the next topic.
