This Foundations course is part of a larger retreat.
Join me for an amazing Gokhale Method retreat at the stunning retreat center Prana Del Mar! Please check out pranadelmar.com for more information about the amenities and location.
This class will be at Prana Del Mar with another class of 8 taught by Gokhale Method instructor Dr. Vera Baziuk. We will have the Foundations classes at separate times, but will join together for the Alumni classes. We will be using 14/16 of the available rooms, so therefore it will mostly be just our two groups.
The retreat will run July 2, 2025-July 9, 2025. Please note this is Summer 2025, not 2024.
This retreat will include an Initial Consultation, a full Foundations Course, and 4 1 hour Alumni classes. The cost of the retreat includes the total cost of the Gokhale program listed above ($930) plus the cost of either a shared ($2000/person) or single ($2500). There are 12 rooms available for 16 participants (2 GM teachers). This means that 8 people can share, and 8 people can have a single occupancy room.
If you have already had an Initial Consultation, the cost of the GM program will be $780-the Foundations Course and 4 Alumni classes.
Therefore, if you want a shared room, the cost is $2930 ($2780 if you've already done IC) ALL INCLUSIVE.
If you want a single room, it is $3430 ($3280 if you've already done IC) ALL INCLUSIVE.
If you wish to make only one payment (recommended for ease of bookkeeping), please contact me directly at [email protected] so I can register you for the class. If you register for the GMF piece on this page, you can make the rest of the payment via Zelle or Google Pay, using the email address [email protected]. The payment in full is due January 1, 2025.
If for any reason the retreat center needs to cancel the group reservation, your payment will be refunded in full.

2. Glidewalking practice and coaching on the beach

“In six sessions I felt transformed. The approach is stunningly simple and confers immediate results. I wholeheartedly endorse this program.”
- Deirdre Stegman, M.D. Internal Medicine, Palo Alto Medical Foundation
“Every year tens of thousands of patients undergo major back surgery without any benefit. By using the novel techniques of the Gokhale Method, many of these patients can avoid such needless and expensive medical procedures and quickly return to a pain-free life.”
- John R. Adler, Neurosurgeon, Stanford University Medical Clinic, Stanford, CA
"Although stunningly simple, the Gokhale Method™ turns much of conventional wisdom about pain and posture on its head. Each session of the course gave immediate results and I now look forward to many years of a healthy neck and back."
