I did my yoga teacher training through shoshoni 14 years ago. It was definitely a valuable…read moreexperience. I came back up last month for just a day retreat. It is just as beautiful as i remember it. There are many buildings where you will participate or can participate in various things . There are also several hiking trails available to you to use. There are currently a lot of moose in the area so if you go up and are out on the trails be sure to be on the look out. The day retreat started with some art. (this was okay, I went because my friend is into art. if i had been on my own i would have opted to go hiking instead during this time) After this was a break and then yoga class. Then lunch. They have a homemade vegetarian/vegan lunch. You can request gluten free in advance. Their food is seriously amazing! It is worth the price of the day retreat just to come and enjoy the food! It is so so good! After lunch, you can do an hour of volunteer work in the kitchen. It is the kind thing to do especially since the prices of their retreats are actually pretty afforable. give back. After that you have a couple of hours of free time to go do what you please. There is a pond you could kayak/canoe on. Or bring up your paddleboard. go hiking. Sit in the reading room. Sit on one of the hammocks in the trees. go meditate. so many choices! After that you can come back for an afternoon yoga class, and then dinner! Again so yummy! It is rare to find some place that can make such delicious homemade vegan and gluten free food. After that they do some ceremonial stuff, you can choose to participate in that or not. Highly recommend having a retreat here, it was very relaxing.

So many good things to say it's hard to know where to start. The basics: Lodging and facilities are…read morevery well kept, clean and somehow in the middle of nowhere the WiFi is blazing. Easy booking, easy check-in and out. The food is awesome and even with the combo of a big appetite and vegetarian food I never ate the beef jerky I brought as a backup.

Not many places like this around.

The Boulder Shambhala Center has been a continued source of vitality for me while I've been…read moreattending Naropa University. Shambhala's founder, Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, had a vision for creating enlightened society in America and the world at large, and being involved with the center has given me a glimpse of how this is not only possible, but already happening in our community. I know a term like enlightened society can come across as fantastic and even fanatical, but in my experience it just feels like sanity. People at Shambhala aren't afraid of being themselves, and the amount genuineness and presence that results from that feels fresh and alive. If you are put off by pricing, know that the center will work with you to make sure you can attend the program you'd like to. In my experience, Shambhala has been much more interested in helping people come back to their own goodness than making money!

I don't think one is necessarily better than the other, just depends on personal preference. The studio was very clean and had lots of props available for people to use.

We did some guided imagery meditation at the end which was interesting, not really my thing but maybe other people are into it.

After moving to Denver I was hopeful that I would be able to connect with a center and I was delighted to find that there is a thriving community here. I was able to quickly locate the available classes, purchase both individual classes, and now a membership. This weekend was an online retreat and I found it easy to attend and follow along. The sound and video were fantastic and the classes started and ended on time, which I greatly appreciate. Now that I've signed up for a monthly membership, I'm looking forward to taking a stroll around the lake to class as weather and pandemic restrictions allow.

It was a great experience. Now I visit when I can. Their downtown space is very cool and peaceful inside, and people are very welcoming. You don't need to bring anything. They have cushions and comfy chairs. I bring a notebook; Kadam Lucy always has something I want to remember. PARKING: People complain about parking downtown, but it's not so bad. There are two parking lots basically next door, so it's not hard to find. The one on Glenarm is $5 for the day except when there's something big going on downtown, and then it's $20. When it's $20, I go to the parking lot behind it (other side of the alley). It'll be $10. But street parking works too. The teachers are aware to keep the class short enough for the meter :-). And Sundays are free parking.
