YELLOWSTONE

Benjamin is an international teacher cited as a “master” by Yoga Journal in 2017. In 2007, he opened LUXYOGA, a legendary retreat center in the South of France, and has spent the last two years developing Bozeman House, a luxury 20-acre wellness destination 20-minutes from Bozeman, MT.

Benjamin leads teacher trainings, workshops, and retreats worldwide, and online.  He began practicing Yoga in 2001 to address a serious spinal injury and multiple knee surgeries, and stuck around because practice helped him to process grief and live with zest and purpose. Benjamin’s work has evolved to support individuals, families, and corporations through the Soul Core Realignment process. He teaches to empower students to make their own realizations through an ever-growing integration of Yoga, modern mobility science, breath-work, and meditation, and is renowned for connecting the dots between diverse modalities with clarity and humor.

Benjamin holds a B.A. from UCLA and certifications in Katonah, Bikram, Forrest, Dharma Mittra Yoga, Functional Range Conditioning, and studies within the Ido Portal Method, Ashtanga Yoga, Mindfulness Meditation, Wim Hoff Breathwork, The Oxygen Advantage, Marma Ayurveda, and has completed a multi-year mentorship in Soul Core Realignment. He believes in high standards, integrity, and the power of love and forgiveness. He will laugh at his own jokes, and prefers to live in the woods and visit the city for omakase sushi.

This is Ben talking, because Austin is too busy getting the fire just right.

I wanted to work with Austin because it was time to get back to the roots I laid down when I first kicked this thing off in France – not just good food, but food you’ll never forget, food that will make you a little sad to go home, wondering how you’ll ever eat again.

See, food on a retreat should be a life-changing experience, like psychedelics on a retreat, even though we won’t be cooking with them this time. So enter chef Austin. He’s particular. His legendary barbecue spot in Bozeman opens only 3 days per week. The wood is from Texas. The meat is from Montana. The food is straight from the heart, and whether he’s smoking classic brisket all night long or making a delicate 10-course tasting menu, it’s always about the best you’ve ever had.

I love Austin’s food because he cuts no corners and accepts no shortcuts. I love Austin because he makes the best barbecue in Montana, but he also served me the best scallop ceviche I’ve ever had while whipping up a vegetarian squash and sage dish for my girlfriend. The reduction he drizzled on the squash was so good, I had to use force to protect it from the hungry hands of my buddies.

Austin just gets it. He integrates worldly flavors with Montana ingredients so you’re left thinking that you want the recipe, but then quickly realize no recipe would make it taste like Austin does.

Let’s eat!

My favorite part is the first hug with a returning guest.

I met Ben in 2013 when I attended LUXYOGA in the South of France.  Something happened in that first class that changed my entire outlook on Yoga for the better. It was a big thing for me to take that trip and it was everything I’d hoped it would be.

A few years later, I retired as a Firefighter from the City of Las Vegas Fire/Rescue. Ben and I had stayed in touch, and after decades yelling at men to pull their weight in emergency situations, I went France as an intern. Life is full of pretty wild twists and turns.

Well, ten years later, I’ve been the lead producer/concierge/mom/big sister on more retreats than I can count, and the work has somehow enabled me to use my strengths and lean into my softness.

I coordinate between properties, chefs, concessionaires, seasonal staff, and I’m your point of contact. My goal is to show you a great time and keep things running smoothly.

I still love the practices when I can find time, and on my own time I’ve completed a couple thousand hours of Yoga and Movement certifications.

Creating one-of-a-kind experiences that bring guests together from around the world, and building new friendships is an honor that I can’t wait to share with you.

I am over-the-moon excited to bring elite, medical-grade skincare to a holistic retreat setting.

Ben and I have been friends since 2013, and this collaboration has been a long time coming. I’m a Southern girl with Parisian roots so to be able to blend my love of nature and Yoga and bring ya’ll some of the finer things in life is a dream come true.

After we stretch, strengthen, and get some sun, I’ll be there to pamper you, and work together to select a treatment that leaves you feeling great and happy in your own skin.

I’m devoted single mom with over 25 years in the beauty industry and 16 years specializing in medical-grade skincare for my loyal clientele in Florida. Every treatment I offer blends science, artistry, and my passion for radiant, healthy, skin that brings out each client’s natural glow.

Whether you're seeking rejuvenation, correction, or indulgent self-care, I’ve got you.
