This retreat is intentionally designed to be a blend of both. Yoga serves as an anchor for the experience, with daily practices that help you arrive fully in each moment, connect more deeply with yourself, and integrate everything you encounter along the way. At the same time, Iceland is an extraordinary destination that invites exploration. You'll spend your days discovering waterfalls, geothermal lagoons, volcanic landscapes, black sand beaches, and charming local culture. Think of it as an adventure-filled journey supported by yoga—a chance to explore one of the world's most awe-inspiring destinations while staying grounded, present, and connected throughout the experience.
Jenn's teaching blends breath-centered, alignment-based yoga with a spirit of curiosity, playfulness, and exploration. Expect a mix of energizing morning practices and restorative evening sessions designed to support the adventures of the week. All levels are welcome.
Our accommodations offer a cozy and comfortable retreat surrounded by Iceland's dramatic natural beauty. You'll stay in well-appointed rooms with modern amenities, inviting common spaces, and easy access to outdoor hot tubs—perfect for relaxing after a day of exploration.
Traveling with two friends or family members? A limited triple occupancy option may be available. Please note that the third bed is a sofa bed and the room is a tighter fit than our standard accommodations. Contact [email protected] for details and availability.

October is a beautiful time to visit Iceland as autumn settles across the landscape. Temperatures typically range from 36–50°F (2–10°C). Expect a mix of sunshine, wind, rain, and possibly even an early snowfall. We recommend dressing in layers and bringing waterproof outerwear. October also offers excellent opportunities to view the Northern Lights. We recommend dressing in layers and bringing a waterproof jacket, warm sweater or fleece, hat, gloves, and sturdy walking shoes.

At International Yoga, we strongly recommend the purchase of travel insurance to protect yourself and your investment. Unexpected events—such as personal emergencies, political or environmental factors, health issues, or weather-related disruptions—can arise and may prevent or interrupt your travel plans. Note that because we must strictly adhere to our cancellation policy, you will be responsible for 100% of any costs associated with the cancellation or interruption of your retreat should you choose not to purchase travel insurance.
While we do not provide recommendations for specific policies, we suggest exploring options through the reputable travel insurance aggregator, InsureMyTrip. They can help you find a provider and policy that best suits your needs. For maximum coverage, we advise purchasing travel insurance within 7–10 days of placing your initial deposit.

If you cancel before the final balance deadline, we will refund any payments you have made, minus the non-refundable deposit. If you do not complete the payment by June 9, 2027, the card on file will be automatically charged your remaining balance on that date to secure your space on the retreat, unless we have advised otherwise. If you register for the trip after June 9, 2027, the full payment amount is due upon registration.
