What is Hygge?
Pronounced 'hue-guh' or 'hoo-ga,' a Danish word encompassing all things wellness. Hygge is an atmoshpere; the feeling of contentment, coziness, a calming energy, relishing in life's simple pleasures through all things comfort, joyful and relaxed.
It's like trying to explain warmth...you just have to feel it.
We go above and beyond to create a nostalgic atmosphere most conducive to relaxation & healing, both individually & collectively, enjoying group connection & togetherness.

It's nice to meet you!
'Utah Hygge Retreats' is a tribute to my Danish grandmother Martha, among my German & English grandparents who instilled in me an appreciation for my heritage & cultural traditions. Combining the wellness lifestyle practices of yoga with those of hygge, has brought me great joy as I'm sure it will for you too, as sometimes we need to take some time to refresh our souls and senses. Let's 'Take Time Out!'
Collaborating with River Bottoms Ranch brings the vision full circle, making these wonderful retreats extraordinary. I look forward to our next retreat with YOU and becoming your friend!
with so much love, Elise

Utah Yoga & Wellness
The UY&W logo of the phoenix represents positive transformation.
We hear all the time at the studio,
"it just feels good here, such a positive energy." You could say that's Hygge.
Thus, Utah Hygge Retreats was formed within UY&W to amplify this feeling into a gratifying weekend experience. We're excited to share other professionals with you to help enhance your experience through classes & workshops.
Embrace the opportunity to resurface innate feelings of contentment & wellness within ourselves, which we often yearn for in our busy distracted lives, while creating new memories.
We also laugh a lot. Laughter is healing.
Come breathe, learn, move, heal, relax, and connect with us.
