Plan a Nature Getaway!
Join the Sat Nam Yoga Community
for a Transformational Kundalini Yoga & Wellness Camp.
Our Campsite location:
Alpine Valley
N6766 Bowers Rd.
Elkhorn, WI 53121
Located in the heart of Alpine Valley, Wisconsin we aim to reclaim the spirit of peace, wisdom and harmony that only nature can deliver. Take a 3 day break from city life to soak up the healing at our pristine 50 acre private campsite.
Do the Hokey Pokey and Turn Yourself Around!
Join us for a transformational weekend of Kundalini Yoga, Sound Journeys, the healing arts and songs around the campfire! Feel even more in tune with yourself, others, and the natural world around you. During our time together you will release stagnant energy, open your heart, and replenish your soul.
You'll also have plenty of time to explore the beautiful surroundings of the campsite. Take a dip in the river, canoe around the lake, hike through the forest, swing in a hammock, bask in the moonlit valley or just BE with the elements of nature.
Immerse your self in a compassionate and soulful community. Whether you're a seasoned yogi or a complete beginner, you'll find a warm welcome and a supportive environment at Camp Hokey Pokey.
Our campsite is truly a special place, and we have the Glenner Family to thank for making it all possible. Their generosity, kindness, and grace have allowed us to create a transformative and unforgettable experience for all who attend. Located just up the hill from our campsite, in their home, there is a plaque that reads, "What if the Hokey Pokey was what it was all about?” and we rolled with it!
Through the lifestyle teachings of Kundalini Yoga as taught by Yogi Bhajan, we are reminded that we thrive when we are together, in Sangha, along with the power of nature and the spirit of elevation we can enhance the quality of our human experience. We look forward to falling asleep under the stars and breaking bread with you all.
