We are thrilled to introduce our collaborator ALEXA DERIGGS, who will be leading our CROATIA retreat in June 2024. Dedicated to taking her practice on and off the mat, Alexa is a student and teacher of Yin, Power, Hatha, and Vinyasa yoga. Along with her numerous certifications in yoga, Alexa also holds a BA in sociology and women’s studies from Colgate University, holds a second-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, and is a certified scuba diving instructor.
Drawing from her own practice of mindfulness and embracing the everyday imperfections of life, Alexa radiates within the space of gentle strength, self-inquiry, and radical self-love. A next-generation teacher, Alexa blends Classic yogic principles originating in India and real-world experiences with breath, vibration, movement, and reflection – creating an accessible practice that is intuitive, challenging, grounded, and unforgettably wild. She acknowledges that yoga has been extremely commodified in the West and aims to uphold the initial intentions and sacredness of this spiritual South Asian practice.
We asked Alexa to send a message to those fortunate enough to get to join her on retreat in DUBROVNIK next year…
“Hello everyone! I’m beyond excited to be spending five magical days with you in Dubrovnik next June. It will be my first time in the dazzling country of Croatia and I’m looking forward to soaking in the rich history, culture, vineyards, and crystal clear waters amongst the villages and towns we’ll explore together. Our daily practices will never be the same as we’ll incorporate movement, breath, meditation, and sound healing for a truly accessible & holistic practice. I’m looking forward to meeting you all!” - Alexa
Alexa is currently working as crew on a charter yacht sailing through the Caribbean from Grenada to the BVI & USVI region. To join her on the Caribbean Sea and enjoy wholesome food and yoga, get in touch via her WEBSITE.
Thank you so much Alexa, can’t wait for our time together in Croatia!
