Let’s dig in
The first step in your retreat planning journey is to find the perfect venue.
Your venue can make or break the retreat experience so we want to be strategic and selective.
We need to know how to steer clear of red flags and pick a winner.
I created Venue Vision to show you exactly how and what to look for when picking a retreat venue. I want you to feel like a Pro going into this!
Program Overview
13 Video Modules
Step-by-step tutorials. I break down into bite-sized, step-by-step instructions exactly how and what I do to research and vet the perfect venue for my retreats (and my clients’).
Toolbox
I give you all the tools that you’ll need. This minicourse comes with checklists to keep you on track, as well as transcripts and key summarized points. I’ve also included email templates for reaching out to venues to make sure you get all the information you need.
Self-Paced
Do it on your own time. This course is completely self-paced so that you can do it on your own time. There’s plenty to keep you on track and moving forward though so you don’t get stuck!
Optional 1:1 Sessions
You can book additional sessions with me. If you ever have questions or need help, you can always book a call with me (additional add-on) so we can strategize and you can get clarity on exactly what you need to do to move forward.
What students are saying...
“Erin’s guidance and wisdom helped me gain the confidence I needed to be able to organize my next retreat, which is already planned and sold out!"
Lisa Theis
- Panacea Retreats Client
“For the longest time I put off leading a retreat because I just didn’t know how to. I’m so glad I worked with Erin, she made the whole experience worthwhile- I learned how to do exactly what she does and I sold out my first retreat!”

✓ How To Communicate. We’ll talk about what sort of information to ask for from a venue and the most important details that will impact your final decision.

Module 13: Vetting Your Venue
How do you vet a place you’ve never been to before?
Hey I'm Erin!
I have been teaching yoga and fitness full-time for 15 years in both Denver and San Francisco. If you teach full-time, you know that IT IS A HUSTLE just to make a living, we live check to check and are barely scraping by.
It wasn’t until I got into leading retreats (over 10 years ago) that I finally had a taste of the “good life”— THIS has been my ticket to not only enjoying financial freedom, but to see the world and no longer feel the exhaustive effects of yoga teacher burn out.
As a professionally trained Travel Advisor specializing in wellness travel and retreat planning, I’ve learned so much about the ins and outs of it all. I started Panacea Retreats 3 years ago because I felt that yoga teachers (and anyone else whose passion has become their way of making money), should be IN on this. I love to see other entrepreneurs thrive and I’m so excited to show you how I did it.
In case you were wondering...
Can I lead a retreat if I’m not a yoga teacher?
Absolutely! You can lead a retreat about anything that you want! You can lead a writer’s retreat, a cooking retreat, a knitting retreat- ANYTHING! Instead of teaching yoga classes- you’d teach about your area of expertise.
I’ve never led a retreat, is this for beginners?
This course is EXACTLY for you! I designed this so you will get step-by-step instruction of what to do so you don’t feel lost and can host a retreat like a pro!
Does this really give me everything I need to get started?
You got it! This minicourse will give you all the tools and information that you’l need to take this first step in your retreat planning journey.
What if I still need help?
That’s what I’m here for! I will reach out to you once you sign up and let you know how we can connect if you need further guidance.
