About this trip

New Year Yoga Retreat 2024/2025 w/ Pete 

Land of Medicine Buddha - Santa Cruz Mountains, CA

Unplug, unwind and reconnect with your spirit during this special New Year Yoga Retreat. Each morning will begin with quiet meditation followed by a vigorous Vinyasa flow. In the evenings, we will enjoy the support of community as we reflect on the triumphs and challenges of 2024, and set intentions for a harmonious start in 2025. Join Pete at the serene Land of Medicine Buddha and set the foundation to manifest the true desires of your heart, remembering that the profound and unending flow of grace supports all that we set our sights upon.

During breaks, explore the breathtaking trails accessible from the lodge’s grounds or the adjacent 10,000 acres of State forest, grab a book, or simply enjoy a catnap in your cozy bedroom.

Pete Guinosso (E-RYT 500) helps students connect with their hearts. His gentle guidance and intuitive assists allow students of all levels to step out of their comfort zones and find their own authentic path in the practice. Pete’s classes offer strong, vigorous sequencing grounded in the breath and intention, and always leaves room for playfulness and fun.

What a spectacular, uplifting, fun, magical and heartfelt experience! Pete is a wonderful man and yoga teacher. He has a great sense of humor and is a sensitive and compassionate person. I recommend his Joshua Tree retreat and I look forward to attending more retreats in the future. We had beautiful gatherings for hiking, meditation, sunsets and lots of laughter. We hiked to a hot springs 1 day and enjoyed ourselves tremendously. Massage was available by Grace Law who is a fabulous and intuitive practitioner, and our cook, Madhi, who is a stellar and eclectic man— made over-the-top meals! What a privileged and blessed experience. Your heart will be overfilled with love.

My husband and I had the pleasure of experiencing Pete’s yoga retreat for the second year in a row and absolutely loved it. Pete is a master of creating an inclusive community where everyone can feel at ease and welcomed. The yoga practice was fantastic as always but more importantly the time and space created for self inquiry and reflection was just what we needed to show gratitude for the year that has passed and embrace the year ahead. Thank you Pete for the gift you have provided us.

This was an amazing retreat! Pete is an incredible teacher. He bring with him a wealth of knowledge and expertise along with a big heart and a great sense of humor. It was a nice blend of yoga, meditation, and other soul-centered activities. The people on the retreat were all friendly and welcoming. The Land of The Medicine Buddha is very nice. I especially enjoyed the short hike that Pete took us on. The food was AMAZING. And the staff was very friendly too.

Not only did I get the juiciest physical yoga practice but I found meaniful connection and inspiration here. Pete was incredibly knowledgeable and helped me get into poses I haven't been able to yet in the 8 years of practicing yoga. He explained poses in a way that make them easier and less risk of injury for me. The meals were delicious and the rooms were warm and cozy. The people at The Land of the Medicine Buddha were incredibly generous and kind and my new friends that joined me on the retreat were special, unique and real. I left feeling uplifted and strong. It's people like Pete that make me fall deeper in love with the yoga community. This retreat was an absolute treat!
