Frequently Asked Questions:
What airport should I fly into?
PSC Pasco airport is the closest to Richland, WA. The Cabin that we are staying at is about a 30 minute drive from the city in rural land on a 20 acre farm overlooking the Columb3ia River.
When should I arrive in Richland?
We always recommend arriving a full 24 hours before the event starts to acclimate to the time changes, the area and rest up before training day one.
Do I need experience with Clubs, Steel Mace or Staff to join?
No you do not need experience to join, we have some students who only have trained with Mark’s content and some students who have only trained with Summer’s content (Steel Mace), and some students who come learn the tools for the very first time at the retreat. We do provide you with access to 3 months of Flow Shala On Demand classes to prep with, and we also have countless videos on youtube that you can practice with if you haven’t invested in our programs yet.

What should I bring?
Bring multiple workout shirts and pants/short, weather is hot and we will be training outside under a tent, at a farm and at a large gymnasium. Bring a water bottle, and your own steel mace and club.

Men bring a 15lb club - adex is recommended.
Women bring a 10lb Club (make sure it is atleast 2 feet in length - no short clubs please!!)
Men & Women bring a 7 or 8lb Steel mace for steel mace vinyasa.
Can my spouse come and lodge with me?
All guests must be paid registrants and participate in the entire retreat. This keeps the group & team mentality strong, and focused and you will get way more out of it if you stay connected with the group. We love having couples take our retreats, they just both must be registered.
What if I want to lodge elsewhere and commute to retreat?
If you decide to stay off site, you are responsible for your own lodging & transport expenses and we do not provide a discount for forfeiting your bed at the cabin.
What if I have an injury or am deconditioned? Can I adapt the retreat?
Summer & Mark are expert coaches at working with all levels in an inclusive & safe coaching environment. You will be encouraged to stay present at all sessions, and you will be given specific modifications when needed. We’ve worked with 70+ year olds, people with injuries, post natal women and everyone in between. Show up, learn and expand your upper limits safely. There are ways to work with an adapt to most injuries as well.
What others are saying:
*all sales are final / no refunds available
Spots are limited and you making payment means you are taking a spot on the roster and all lodging & food/expenses are pre-paid months in advance.
If you have to cancel last minute, you understand that you are forfeiting your investment.
