Missy Hartley

Missy creates a space where you don’t have to be flexible, experienced, or “good at yoga” to belong. Her classes are designed for real bodies, real lives, and real people who just need permission to show up as they are.

If you’ve ever felt intimidated by yoga or worried you’re “not flexible enough,” Missy will meet you exactly where you are. Her teaching is warm, grounding, and empowering. She’ll guide you through movement that builds both strength and ease, helping you reconnect with your body’s innate wisdom without judgment or pressure.

Missy’s own yoga journey began in 2016 when her husband David introduced her to Anamaya. The moment the sun set on her first visit, she knew she belonged here. She and David completed their teacher training at Anamaya, and today, Missy brings that same transformative energy to every class she teaches. When she’s not on the mat, she’s a Financial Assistant at Wealth Wellness (the firm she co-runs with David), hiking the mountains of Arizona, or enjoying life with her two playful cats.

In this retreat, Missy will help you remember that balance isn’t about perfection. It’s about finding the dance between strength and softness, effort and ease. You’ll leave her classes feeling grounded, capable, and reconnected to yourself.

David Hartley Headshot

David Hartley

David brings a unique blend of mindfulness and practicality to his teaching. As a financial advisor with over two decades of experience, he understands the weight of responsibility, the pressure to perform, and the challenge of staying grounded when life demands everything from you.

His yoga practice is an extension of that understanding. David teaches from the belief that true wealth isn’t just financial – it’s the ability to live a balanced, fulfilled life. In his classes, you’ll explore how to stay steady even when life feels chaotic, how to cultivate inner harmony alongside outer success, and how to align your actions with your values.

David’s journey into yoga began at Lifetime Fitness, but it was Anamaya that unlocked his full potential. After his first visit, he started manifesting the life he truly wanted. When he returned with his new wife, Missy, to celebrate their honeymoon, Anamaya became even more meaningful – a place where transformation and love intertwined. Today, David integrates yoga principles into his financial practice at Wealth Wellness, empowering clients to achieve clarity, purpose, and holistic prosperity.

In this retreat, David will guide you to build practices that support you long after you leave. You’ll learn how to integrate mindfulness into your daily life, how to create space for what truly matters, and how to carry the calm you find here back home with you.

“Anamaya is an amazing retreat center up on a mountain overlooking the ocean. The Anamaya experience has it all ~ breathtaking views, outstanding staff, delicious food, and beautiful well planned accommodations. It is the perfect place to practice yoga, take part in excursions or simply relax. Everything is incredibly clean. Every single staff member was exceptional. The body work offered is incredible, and definitely world class. I will return!”

A week to breathe. To move without pressure. To remember who you are beneath all the doing. Reserve your spot.
