✨ This is for the mama who…

is doing all the things and still feels behind

is holding everyone else’s needs with quiet grace

is touched-out, over-stimulated, and still showing up

is craving space to breathe without being needed

misses herself

and longs to feel peaceful again—inside her own body

If your heart whispered “yes”…

this was created for you.

✨ Your invitation

Come be held for a few hours.

Let me guide you into a sacred pause—

through gentle yoga, grounding breath, creative ritual,

and soulful connection with other mamas who get it.

This is not about fixing.

It’s about remembering.

Remembering who you are beneath the roles.

Letting your nervous system soften.

Letting you be cared for.

✨ Mama Bird Retreat — February

A half-day reset for mothers

Rest • Create • Exhale • Reconnect

You don’t have to carry it all alone.

Come rest your wings with us.

With so much love 🤍

Christine

Mama Bird Retreat left me feeling connected and calm. Christine created such a beautiful and welcoming space for all of us women to come together. From the lovely flowers to the delicious food, she had all the details in place. I loved spending time painting, dancing and of course the sound bath at the end of the day was my personal favorite. -Mama Bird (May 2025-Bloom & Unwind Retreat)

I was pleasantly surprised with the lovely tea ceremony with the flower mandala creation by us! During the healing and relaxing yoga therapeutics class I received the best massage by Christine. What an amazing time to bond with other women and to experience a soulful and peaceful day. -Mama Bird (April 2022 Nourish to Flourish Retreat -Somatic Dancing, Art, Journaling, Yoga & Sound Healing)

As a mama, Christine often envisioned a space where she and other women could collectively experience a rejuvenation of body and mind.

A chance to replenish after lovingly giving so much to others. 

That’s when Mama Bird Retreats was born.

Mama Bird is a local retreat in L.A. for women who seek the perfect opportunity to relax and discover their truth through art, nature, yoga, sound healing, and much more. 

Who is Mama Bird Retreat for?  It’s for the mamas who know that self-care is a part of being a good mom. 

It’s for the women who aren’t mamas, but know the power of womanhood.

It’s for the divine feminine that sometimes rocks a messy bun and sweats, and is not always perfectly polished.

It’s for you. Because you’re open to a community where you can receive the energy to fly gracefully into your own journey of well-being.

What do we do? Each retreat is special and never the same as the last. We offer a range of experiences, including hikes, ceremonies, sound baths, drum circles, artistic discovery, vision boards, and, of course, yoga. With an emphasis on self-awareness, you will also receive card readings, guided meditations, and a light energy reiki healing. 

Christine, along with her vetted teachers, will guide and nurture each Mama Bird along a series of unique therapeutic postures, dynamic stretches, and more. 

A day away with fun and soul-driven activities that will have you feeling inspired, connected, and recharged is just what you need, mama. 

Listen to that quiet voice inside you and join us at our next retreat. You deserve it.

Mama Bird Retreats offers much more than just yoga classes; it’s a space for creativity and play among like-minded women.

Christine Saiyan is a mama to two whimsical, beautiful girls. She is a wife, a sister, a guide, and a cc over a decade of experience, Christine gets that Yoga is not one-size-fits-all; everyone’s journey to mindful living is unique, and your practice should be, too!

The path to deep healing is personal. Which means, your yoga experience should be personal as well. Christine approaches each student with great care by accommodating individual needs.

Her extensive knowledge of wellness and Yoga Therapy ensures that every student receives tailored, gentle guidance to improve flexibility, mobility, and recovery from previous injuries.
