    Description

    ***Work visa required***

    This is a guest ranch in Northern New Mexico. We host weddings and yoga retreats. We have a wellness center that offers yoga, massages, reiki, reflexology, sound healing, and guided meditations. We are always in need of providers for the wellness center. We have a hot yoga studio, an event hall, and a yoga deck on the side of the ridge overlooking the valley. The event hall is most commonly used for wedding receptions, however, we've done all sorts of community events there; Belly dancing, corporate training, art classes, yoga for large groups, and sound healing ceremonies. For services that we can generate revenue from we can compensate a workaway participant as an independent contractor.

    We are going to be building a new sauna building this fall. It will be in the style of a Russian Bayna. The next project after that will be a horse stable.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We have a staff house. It's somewhat communal in that there is a shared kitchen and two shared bathrooms. You would have your own bedroom. We have five total bedrooms and at the time of this writing, three of them will be vacant by the end of 2022. The accommodations are better than your average hostel but not as great as a 3-4 star hotel. I live in the staff house too and I like it just fine. The food is provided. We often eat as a group.
