Climbing + Yoga: Center Yourself
"I'm hesitant to even call this rock climbing," says Heather Sullivan of the rock climbing/yoga retreat slated for July 17 to 20 in Yosemite National Park ($1,215; balancedrockfoundation.org). "It's more about learning to breathe as you move across rock." Never mind that Sullivan's teamed up with local legend Ron Kauk, a seasoned climber with a number of big wall firsts under his belt (he was also a stunt double for Sylvester Stallone and climbing instructor to Tom Cruise). Basing operations out of Tuolumne Meadows Campground (8,800 feet), participants split time between yoga sessions, hiking, and "playing on rocks" at nearby glacial lakes. "We'll also be making some time to just be," Sullivan says. For once you can return home recharged after a weekend of rock climbing.

Quoting from their website:
"We will use some top-rope climbing techniques and bouldering to continue hands-on experience of staying focused and present and using breath to move. Highlights include: delicious food prepared by our volunteer staff."
That's just what we do at VE except for the delicious food.
