When is the last time you were blessed by a monk? 🕊️

In the Tibetan tradition, a blessing isn’t just ceremony, it’s transmission.
A vibration of compassion that purifies the mind, softens the heart, and restores harmony to the soul. ✨

For three sacred evenings, the Tibetan Monks of Gaden Shartse Monastery will share their ancient rituals, music, and art within the temple space of Yucca Shala.
An offering of peace, wisdom, and beauty that transcends time.

Come receive the blessing.
Come remember your own sacred nature. 💖

“This is one of the most aesthetically beautiful, energetically pristine, and supportive places I’ve ever experienced. 🌿✨ The acoustics in the Temple space transcend time and dimensional realities - a yogi, ceremonialist, and musician’s dream.”

Every word of this reflection reminds us why Yucca Shala was created, to be a sanctuary for heart-centered and sacred gatherings.🤍

What is a Bespoke Event with Kim Tang and Spencer James?

A BESPOKE event is NOT the same as hosting your own retreat  at Yucca Shala. When you host your own retreat at Yucca Shala, YOU are the host of your retreat, and you fully provide your own schedule of activities, which may or may not include us or our added services.

A BESPOKE EVENT means you are assembling your own group  on agreed-upon dates and together we custom craft the events that Spencer and I will hold for your group. We will lead the retreat - yoga, sound baths, the breath work, the excursions, the sat sang , anything and everything you have requested from us for your community.  in other words, it's a custom curated retreat for your group only. 



Here’s how it works:
1️⃣ Organize your own group (5–17 people)
2️⃣ Reserve your date with us
3️⃣ Custom curate exactly what your group wants to experience — from Yoga and Breathwork to Sound Baths, QHHT, Excursions, Satsang, and more!

💫 Your group. Your dates. Your creation.

📩 Reserve your dates and create your custom curated event with Kim Tang & Spencer James at Yucca Shala today!
📩 DM us or Send an email to [email protected]
