YOGA IN THE HOCKLEY VALLEY with Mar Jean Olson

Ecology Retreat Centre in the Autumn
November 5-7 2021

Give yourself time and space – to breathe, release and explore. Join us for a weekend of yoga in glorious surroundings! Just 50km north of Toronto – near Orangeville – we’ll be within 200 acres of splendid natural forest in the Niagara Escarpment Hills, along the Bruce Trail and the Nottawasaga River.

Mar Jean Olson began yoga as part of an athletic childhood, and has been teaching at Esther Myers Yoga Studio since 1993. She has studied Isshinryu Karate since 1981 and has been a student at the Toronto Zen Center since 1984. She also has a Ph.D in Technical Writing.
