Autumn Adams

Many know me as a yoga teacher, retreat leader, and mother. But I’m more than just those roles—and so are you.

I’m Autumn Adams, and I’ve walked the same path of burnout, feeling like I had to be everything for everyone. But the truth is, you don’t need to hustle harder. You don’t need to keep putting yourself last. You don’t need to settle for a life that leaves you drained, disconnected, and unfulfilled. The life you want—the one that lights you up and makes you feel alive—isn’t out of reach. It’s right here, waiting for you to choose it.

In 2014, I founded Ambuja Yoga, not to give women an escape from life, but to help them step into their truth. Over the past decade, I’ve created spaces where women can come to rediscover themselves—places where they can peel back the layers of “shoulds” and reconnect with their inner wisdom. At my yoga retreats, you won’t just be doing yoga overlooking the beach or beside a mountain stream (although you will)—you’ll be rediscovering the vibrant, aligned woman who’s been waiting inside you all along.

Here’s what I’ve learned: transformation doesn’t happen when you’re running on empty or constantly putting everyone else first. It happens when you choose to prioritize yourself, not as an act of selfishness but as an act of reclaiming your life and a true act of self-love. That’s why I’ve designed my yoga retreats to give you permission to breathe again, to trust yourself, and to let go of the expectations that don’t serve you.

I integrate my background in dance, hatha and vinyasa yoga, yoga nidra, coaching, and mentoring to guide you through a journey of personal exploration. My teaching isn’t just about getting you into the right poses—it’s about helping you shed old beliefs, shift your mindset from “I can’t” to “How can I?”, while embracing life’s unpredictability with grace and humor.

The women who attend my yoga retreats often walk in feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and unsure if they can ever reclaim their spark. But they leave knowing that the vibrant life they crave isn’t something distant or unreachable. It’s already inside them, ready to be brought to the surface.

My work has been featured in publications like Insider.com, Shape.com, Zappos.com, Asia Spa, Direct Holiday, and Bend Nest, but what matters most is how my retreats change lives. I’m proud to have led over 30 transformative retreats where women walk away with not only a sense of clarity and peace but also the tools to bring those qualities into every aspect of their lives.

When I’m not leading women’s retreats, you can find me hiking in the mountains, swimming in the sea, or chasing after my free-spirited little boy. I believe in living a life that feels deeply connected to nature, adventure, and, most importantly, myself—and I want the same for you.
