A weekend of embodiment, connection, celebration, and stepping fully into your power as an EDM Yoga® teacher.
This weekend is an opportunity to get clear in your brand identity, to show up as the highest version of yourself, to teach from your heart, and to always remain both a student and a teacher of yoga.
Because yoga literally means unity, this is a community built on divine, unconditional love — the Embodied Divine Miraculous consciousness this whole practice is named for. We're here to connect to ourselves and to each other, to blend our humanness with our soul's perspective, to stay in alignment and take aligned action, and to manifest everything we need and more for the highest good of all. A space and a place for all of us to come together and heal as one unconditionally loving field of unity, peace, and togetherness.
Instead of a co-creation class, this is just a time to connect and ground into our intentions together. I'll be there to answer any questions — come share where you're at, what you're excited about, and let's set intentions and get really excited together.
Come ready to open your heart and connect with the community — and bring any questions you have.
Arrival, Welcome & Opening Ceremony
Arrive at our beautiful waterfront home for the weekend and settle into your room. Take a moment to unpack, get comfortable, and land in the energy of the retreat — Christina will be coming around to welcome everyone.
We head to the beach together for the most magical opening ceremony alongside the LA wellness community — a dreamy mermaid-style practice in the sand, followed by a deeply restorative sound bath as the sun sets. Our moment to arrive fully and open the retreat with intention, movement, and sound.
This session is free and open beyond our retreat group — friends, students, and the wider LA wellness community are welcome to join us on the beach.
Sign Up (Free)Back to the hotel to shower, get dressed up, highest-self energy — then our official welcome dinner at SALT. Gorgeous waterfront views, delicious food, and the sweetest first night together.
Come comfortable for yoga on the beach. As the sun goes down it starts to cool off, so bring your EDM Yoga® sweatshirt to throw on — black with white writing, made to be worn over and over again with literally everything.
Pick bottoms in your own brand color — shorts, a skirt, a skort, or leggings, whatever feels like your highest self. Christina's plan: a hot pink tennis skort with a yoga bra or shirt, EDM Yoga® sweatshirt packed for when it gets cooler — her favorite look to teach in.
Methodology, Movement & Beach Day
Rise and shine — breakfast, coffee, lattes, or Christina's favorite Coconut Cloud Matcha to start the day together.
A full EDM Yoga® class taught by Christina, who guides the complete experience while explaining her teaching methodology, sequencing, energetic transitions, and the intention behind each part of the practice. Feel the full power of EDM Yoga® in person while learning how Christina builds and holds the journey from beginning to end.
Lunch, smoothies, and anything else your body is calling for.
On purpose. Time to ground, rest, connect with nature and with ourselves, and enjoy being together without needing to accomplish anything. Swim, sunbathe, journal, talk, walk along the water, or simply be.
Home to shower and reset, then dinner at UOVO — the marina view is out of this world, and we'll capture plenty of content before we go. Dress as your highest self, in your personal brand identity.
Cozy up in your favorite pajamas and get creative — we're making personalized picture frames that represent you and your inner child. Decorate with charms, stickers, beads, words, symbols, colors, and anything else that feels like you. Fellow student Tara is generously putting together all of our craft supplies ahead of time, so fill out the form below to help her know what to bring.
Wear your yoga fit, and pack one bag for the full day:
Christina highly recommends a Sand Cloud Towel — it doubles as a meditation seat, beach blanket, and swim towel. Your mat and props can stay at Christina's home or in the Azzurra Yoga Room all weekend, so you won't need to carry them to the beach.
Your coziest pajamas, and a printed photo of your inner child — a childhood photo of yourself, printed at 4x6 size. This goes in the middle of your frame, so don't forget it!
Graduation, Collaboration & Sunday Funday
Your official graduation collaboration class — every graduate teaches one portion of a seamless EDM Yoga® experience, sharing their own voice, energy, and teaching style. As each graduate completes their section, we pause to recognize their journey and officially honor them as a certified EDM Yoga® teacher. The class flows into a certificate meditation and graduation ceremony — a celebration of everything you've learned, completed, and become.
Back to the hotel to change into bathing suits and get ready to celebrate.
EDM Yoga®, EDM Breathwork®, breathing to the beat, meditating to the music, and good vibes all day. Since the party's right at the hotel, everyone can head back to their room anytime. Pool towels provided — just bring your bathing suit, sunscreen, sunglasses, a cover-up, and your happiest pool party energy.
Shower, reset, and get ready for another beautiful dinner together. Dress as your highest self, in white, as we celebrate completing the training and honor the new chapter everyone is officially beginning.
Dress as your highest self, in your truest brand identity as a teacher — something that makes you feel confident, powerful, and completely comfortable in your own skin.
This is also our main opportunity to capture content of each graduate teaching and stepping fully into their role as an EDM Yoga® teacher. Please bring a very lightweight yoga mat, blanket, or Sand Cloud Towel to sit on during meditation and the ceremony.
Integration & Closing Ceremony
Spacious and intentional. Sleep in, journal, enjoy your room, walk by the marina, or simply allow yourself to integrate everything you experienced this weekend.
A final matcha, coffee, or breakfast together. Dress in bright neon cozy/workout clothes.
We gather at the park for a final closing meditation — grounding everything we experienced, reflecting on what we're taking home, and intentionally closing the retreat container together. Bring your lightweight yoga mat, blanket, or Cloud Towel to sit comfortably.
Collect your belongings and check out. You'll leave not only as a graduate, but as a certified EDM Yoga® teacher ready to lead, create, and share this practice with the world.
Tara's putting together all of our craft supplies ahead of time, so give her your answers below — you don't have to know exactly what you want, just share whatever comes to mind and she'll make sure there are plenty of options to choose from.
Don't forget to bring a printed photo of your inner child (a childhood photo of yourself) at 4x6 size!
This is the official launch of RESET — the newest DEN Wellness Residency at Regent Santa Monica Beach — closing out National Wellness Month with something special.
Christina Joy guides a meditation and gentle breathwork session to help guests arrive fully present. Kiki Matoba leads an expansive crystal bowl sound journey, while Sebastian Casper and Jessica Lissette build an immersive soundscape with hand pans, crystal bowls, chimes, and other healing instruments. Together, the evening is designed to help everyone slow down, reconnect, and leave restored — ready for the week ahead.
Open to the wider community, not just retreat guests.
