MONTANA retreat and training


  • Feathered Pipe Ranch 2409 Bear Creek Road Helena, MT (map)

A HANDS ON ASSISTING TRAINING

Come to Feathered Pipe Ranch, where you'll be steeped in nature and held by a deep history of spiritual care.

You'll get five full days of practice, study, camaraderie, and the time and space to unwind. You will leave renewed, confident, and ready to reach out into the world.

No previous teaching or assisting experience is required, but please have decent yoga experience, great interest, willingness to touch and be touched, and a clear moral compass.

It is possible to come for just the retreat. Non trainees would practice and eat with us and be free during our training hours. The rate would be the same.

Elizabeth DeAngelis and Julianna Curtis will lead the training.

$2000 - PROGRAM + BASIC ROOM

Basic tuition includes the whole program, basic rooming, and all meals. Accommodation upgrade rates reflect the choices available.

Feathered Pipe has very cool rooming options. They’re all comfortable, cozy, and nestled in on their beautiful property. The shared bath house is spacious, clean, and a great place to chat!

From Baron Baptiste

“Elizabeth has a gift for seeing the whole person and what’s possible for each individual. She brings ease, learning, and inspiration to her classes and she embodies skillfulness when giving hands-on assists. Her assists let the whole person experience new depths of freedom, ease, and power on the mat and in their life.

I loved teaching classes when Elizabeth was assisting, and I always trusted her to teach and train the studio assistant teams to deliver intentional, effective hands on assists during the practice.

If you have interest in developing real skills in tactile assisting, look no further. Definitely choose Elizabeth’s training.”

Located just outside of Helena, Montana Feathered Pipe Ranch is surrounded by millions of acres of forest and mountains. Born out of the life-sustaining traditions of India and Native America, the Feathered Pipe continues to welcome and support today’s generation of spiritual seekers and teachers at North America’s oldest non-guru-based retreat center.
