Beyond the Breath
A yoga + breathwork immersion in Bragg Creek, Alberta
Sunday, May 3, 2026 3:00-6:00pm
The intention is simple:
To burn away what’s no longer serving you as an access to freedom.
You are invited to a 3-hour yoga and breath-work immersive experience hosted in the beauty of Bragg Creek, Alberta.
This isn’t about relaxation, but instead a powerful opportunity to shift out of your default way of being, and into the possibility of so much more. This experience is about shifting what’s been in your way and holding you back, and into reconnecting to what might actually be possible.
Whether you’re new to baptiste yoga, to this work or you’re deep into your practice, this is an invitation to show up exactly as you are.
You’ll leave clearer, lighter, and way more connected — not because anything outside of you changed, but because something IN-side of you did.
“In every moment, you have the power to create a new possibility.”
— Baron Baptiste
Why ‘Beyond the Breath’?
Because you can only stay comfortable for so long.
At some point, you have to step into the discomfort and into the things you’ve been avoiding, ignoring, pushing down. That’s where the shift happens, and that is where possibility is created.
What’s Included:
→60 Minute Baptiste Yoga — a powerful practice intentionally designed to shake up business as usual, to burn away any excess energy that’s been holding you back, and to wake you up to what’s actually possible in your mind, your body and in your life.
→90 Minute Concious Connected Breath-work Journey — a powerful practice that takes you beyond the thinking mind and into the deeper layers of your body. This is a powerful way to access clarity, shift what’s been stuck, and reconnect to yourself in a real, embodied way.
→Integration + Connection — time to integrate your experience, to share and be in community

ERIKA BLAKELY
“I’m a leadership coach, retreat facilitator, and Baptiste Certified Yoga Teacher with over a decade of experience creating powerful spaces for growth and transformation.”
After walking away from a corporate career in accounting, I committed fully to the path of yoga and leadership. I’ve trained for over 1,000 hours with some of the most respected teachers in the world—including through The Baptiste Institute—and now co-lead 200-hour teacher trainings and lead international retreats that take people deep into themselves.
My work blends yoga, embodied leadership, coaching, and personal inquiry. I create experiences that challenge people to get honest, go inward, and reconnect with what matters—whether that’s on the mat, in conversation, or halfway across the world in a retreat setting.
DENISE MCINTOSH
”I practice and teach a wide range of meditation, yoga, reiki, and breathwork.”
I have had the privilege of studying with many mentors in my journey, including a Tibetan Buddhist monk who introduced me to the beautiful Zen Buddhist Philosophy, which guides my aspirations in life. I have also studied the science behind the many forms of searching for contentment and enlightenment enabling the mind and body to connect to the soul in harmony. I am trained in: Buddhist meditation, Baptiste yoga, Reiki, Breathwork, Yoga Nidra, I rest, Ishta yoga, Hooponopono, and life coaching. I have been trained in trauma-informed and somatic practices which I weave into all my classes. I aim to inspire and empower people with a gentle, compassionate approach to tap into their inner wisdom ultimately finding balance in their lives. With this balance my students can embrace the present moment and cultivate a deeper connection to themselves and the world around them.
We look forward to welcoming you to this beautiful experience in Bragg Creek, Alberta
