Two and three-night wellbeing programs on the Hudson, led by teachers at the top of their fields.

Join us as we bring small groups to 100 riverfront acres for weekends built around a single practice: writing with a working poet, qigong with a master teacher, meditation, longevity, creative renewal. Programs run on select weekends, beginning January 22.

Every program is chosen by Director Carol Donahoe, formerly Senior Director of Programs at the Omega Institute, where she oversaw more than 300 programs a year. Each weekend is all-inclusive: your cabin, meals by Executive Chef Ed Harder, all instruction, and the run of the grounds.

The rest is the property doing what it does. Mornings by the water, sessions in a century-old brick pavilion, saunas at the river's edge, firepits after dark.

Choose a weekend.
We'll handle the rest.

Teachers & Programs Schedule

Jan 22 - 24

Way of the Sword
with Damien Echols

A bestselling author, martial artist, and spiritual teacher, Echols emerged from nearly two decades on death row with a deep practice of inner alchemy, chronicled in Life After Death and his latest, Alchemy of the Broken Blade. This retreat is where that philosophy becomes action: daily talks on the Great Work, sitting and moving meditation, and a Tang Soo Do sword form practiced as moving meditation to anchor you in the present. All levels welcome, no martial arts experience required.

Hip Hop Soundbath
with Ofouso Jones-Quartey

Meditation teacher, author, and hip-hop artist Ofosu Jones-Quartey, who records as Born I, has spent his career joining two traditions rarely found in the same room. This weekend brings both: accessible mindfulness teachings and restorative sound baths woven with live lo-fi hip-hop and heart-centered conversation, all in service of slowing down and remembering your inherent worth. Whether you come for rest, creative inspiration, spiritual practice, or community, no meditation or musical experience is needed and all are welcome.

Returning Home to Yourself
with Karena Virginia

A certified healer, Kundalini expert, and author of Essential Kundalini Yoga, Karena Virginia has built a practice around helping people find their voices.

Come curious; the weekend meets you wherever your practice stands.

Community + Connection

The difference at Hutton Wellbeing is scale. At the big retreat centers you can be one of a hundred in the hall; here, programs are kept intentionally small, closer to a dinner party than a conference. You're never watching from the back row. Teachers share the same tables at meals, questions get answered by name, and the strangers from Friday's welcome dinner are usually the reason people come back.

The place does its part. Sessions meet in a century-old brick pavilion, meals are served with the river in view, and evenings end around the fire. In winter and spring the property runs at its quietest, which means a small group has the riverfront, the trails, and the saunas nearly to themselves.

  • Small groups, real time with teachers

  • Cabins with walls of glass to the river

  • 100 riverfront acres of nature and trails

  • The historic 1873 Edgewood Mansion

  • Farm-to-table meals by Chef Ed Harder

  • Waterfront saunas, massage by appointment

  • Two hours north of New York City
