Since 2000, we offer workshops & retreats that awaken the whole writer from vision to re-vision. Taos, New Mexico (March & July). The renowned Omega Institute in New York's Hudson Valley (September). The Berkshire Mountains in Massachusetts at Kripalu Center (May). Our unique focus is to show writers - regardless of background - how Yoga informs their process and craft. No yoga experience required. We understand that a safe space, creative challenge, intelligent guidance, and an inspiring locale make for the ideal writer's or artist's retreat. Delicious food. Creativity-busting experiences. Conviviality.
We also offers writers - veteran and aspiring - full literary services, including mentoring, coaching, ghostwriting, book packaging, book proposal consultations, and more.
Our director, Jeffrey Davis - a national workshop leader, writer, editor, and yoga teacher - is author of The Journey from the Center to the Page: Yoga Philosophies and Practices as Muse for Authentic Writing (Penguin 2004; paperback 2005; One Spirit Book Club Choice) and City Reservoir (1998). His retreats and teachings have been featured in Poets & Writers, The Writer, and Yoga International magazines.
Founder of M15660 and WEN Barn & Gardens in upstate New York, Jeff leads workshops and retreats throughout the country. He serves as Contributing Editor for Wildlife Watch Binocular, and his essays, articles, short stories, and poems have appeared in publications around the country and in London including The Comstock Review, The Sulphur River Literary Review, Conscious Choice, and Wisdom Publication's You Are Not Here and Other Works of Buddhist Fiction. He is faculty mentor in creative non-fiction at Western Connecticut State University and leads creative writing workshops at the Taos Summer Writers Conference, The Writers Lab in Skyros, Greece, and the Block Island Poetry project among other places.
