Ann Dyer Cervantes

Both yoga and travel have the power to transform us — to sharpen perception, soften habit, and awaken us to life more fully. Ann Dyer Cervantes brings these two paths together in richly layered retreat experiences that nourish both body and spirit.

For more than 40 years, Ann has guided students through a distinctive, methodical approach to yoga that emphasizes strength, balance, mobility, safety, and genuine progress. Her classes are welcoming, intelligently paced, and infused with warmth, humor, and curiosity.

On retreat, yoga becomes part of a larger conversation with place — woven together with meditation, music, art, ritual, landscape, and daily life. Her retreats invite students not simply to visit extraordinary places, but to truly take them in — and perhaps even be quietly changed by them.

Ann is the Owner and Director of Mountain Yoga in Oakland, California.
