Heidi Grace has been leading Dharma & Grace Retreats since 2013, offering regenerative international wellness experiences that blend ancient yogic wisdom with modern science, community connection, and the healing intelligence of nature. 

Her retreats invite guests into meaningful transformation—shifting from being “consumers” of wellness to stewards of their own wellbeing—through mindful practices, soulful connection, and spacious environments designed for renewal. 

Each journey is crafted to awaken intrinsic motivation, deepen self-trust, and inspire a lasting sense of care for oneself, community, and the planet. 

Dharma & Grace Yoga Retreats 

Private Sessions and Small Group Gatherings offer a more intimate, personalized way to experience Heidi’s work - whether through yoga, Ayurveda, ritual, or soulful mentorship. 

These sessions create a safe, nurturing space for deeper connection, tailored guidance, and meaningful transformation, allowing you (or your small circle) to explore practices that support clarity, balance, and inner renewal.

As a yogini, artist, and guide, Heidi Grace invites you to explore yoga as an embodied lifestyle—a sacred art form through which you create your life with intention, beauty, and presence. Her work is rooted in the belief that when we relax into our Divine Self, we access freedom, clarity, and deep connection.

Through the dance of balancing the elements, Heidi guides students in harmonizing their inner truth with outer action. Her teaching style blends Ayurveda, Yoga Nidra, and classical yoga philosophy with a grounded, poetic approach that supports total well-being.

Heidi Grace received her 200-hour Yoga Teacher Training from the Marianne Wells Yoga School in Costa Rica (2009), followed by 108 hours of Anusara training in Boulder, Colorado. In 2013, she completed her 500-hour certification with SriYoga under Brenna Geehan and Jean Mazzei in San Francisco.

A devoted teacher of teachers, Heidi Grace has been certifying yoga instructors since 2012 through Yen Yoga & Fitness in Michigan and her own Yoga Alliance-approved school, Nature Yoga, with trainings in Costa Rica, India, and online.

She is the founder of Dharma & Grace Retreats, Nature Yoga, and Charlevoix Yoga, known for weaving together yogic wisdom, feminine leadership, and holistic healing.

Heidi Grace serves as a special advisor on human-centered initiatives aimed at accelerating the future of health, well-being, and community. Her consulting work spans from Ayurveda Coaching to Conscious Destination Design in collaboration with a design studio based in Encinitas, California.

Her classes, retreats and programs are for those seeking to reconnect with natural rhythms, live with purpose, and embody a more soulful, sustainable way of being.
