Neighboring Yellowstone National Park and surrounded by awe-inspiring peaks, tributaries of the Yellowstone River, mountain meadows, and grasslands – this landscape creates a tapestry of rich biodiversity which elk, mountain goats, grizzly and black bears, bighorn sheep, whitetail and mule deer, and mountain lions call home. Our home base, B-Bar Ranch, stewards to 9,000 acres, is committed to land conservation and restoration – which enhance the experience of our inner reclamation and rewilding.
You will be treated to 3 delicious home-cooked meals per day. Even though we are staying at a grass-fed sustainable cattle ranch, vegetarians will find an abundance of fresh vegetables and non-meat protein. Food is an important part of our retreat experience, so you can expect healthy, fresh meals. Bar Ranch can accommodate dietary restrictions. The food was a true highlight when we took a group in 2024.

We have you! You don’t need to worry about your yoga skills. All the yoga taught will have lots of options for you to do what is best for you.
There will be time throughout the retreat for you to just be. Each day has some free time woven in. We believe in a good balance of being and doing.
Absolutely! Consider adding a day at the beginning or end of the retreat. You can contact B Bar Ranch directly or explore the town of Bozeman, where you will fly in and out.
Maryanne Mott and her husband Herman Warsh (now deceased), bought B Bar Ranch in 1978. Maryanne continues to own and manage the ranch which raises organically certified heritage cattle for beef and hosts guests and groups. She steers the ranch to embrace ecologically responsible practices, to use humane treatment of livestock and wildlife, and to protect existing values of natural resources and agriculture.
