Topanga Retreat at The Commune

About the Location

The Topanga Commune is a place for connection and discovery. It is a place to absorb the wisdom of the world’s greatest teachers. It is a place to slow down and move your brain into long-wave thoughts. It is a place to practice, garden and cook, But, most of all, it is designed to foster deep levels of connection between people in real life.

From beautiful practice spaces, to a tea lounge, to countless nooks and epic perches, the Topanga Commune is a place to do just that: commune – with a higher spirit, with nature, and, most of all, with each other.

At the end of the end, perched atop a remote valley of the Santa Monica mountains, there is the Topanga Commune. 10 acres of meandering paths, oak trees, palms and gardens abutting state land. Only thirty minutes from most of Los Angeles but it feels like a million miles away.

Alex Roberts

Faculty & Assistant Director of Teaching

With a sports background, my teaching aesthetic is largely rooted in the belief that yoga can be both athletic and therapeutic when practiced with intelligent guidance. As a teacher, I maintain the importance of proper alignment, accuracy of movement, and improved muscular control to reform shape and increase capacity. As a yogi, I also understand that any form of practice should foster improved relationships off the mat– nutritionally, athletically, socially, spiritually, etc.. 

I firmly believe that a conscious practice refined with clear instruction can allow bodies to evolve and heal at optimum speed and retain their capacity for movement forever. By adapting traditional techniques to modern needs and client goals, together, we will transform your yoga mat into a laboratory for limitless possibility.
