For the first time, we are thrilled to offer a two-day retreat exclusively for Montessori educators! Take time to focus on yourself and recharge alongside fellow members of the Montessori community. Together, we’ll explore the natural beauty of Central California, enjoy mindfulness and yoga sessions, learn how to take better photographs, and creatively blend art and science through embroidery. We might even be able to fit in a glass of wine or two!
