What to Expect:

We believe that sauna is an essential part of a healthy lifestyle, and we're committed to providing a safe and inclusive environment for all to enjoy. Whether you're looking to escape the stresses of daily life, meet new people, or simply relax and rejuvenate, our Community Steam Sessions nurture physical, mental and social wellbeing.

Experience next-level relaxation with 90 minutes of self-guided community hot and cold cycles in our one-of-a-kind mobile wood burning sauna, the “Wildflower” and the beautiful pond at the Yurt event space at Detach Primitive.

Between rounds, enjoy a dip in the pond, swim out to the raft and make a splash off the diving board. Take in the peaceful forest setting, relaxing by the fire and unwind in the yurt lounge space. Changing areas, restrooms, and lounge spaces are all available for your comfort.

How to Prepare:

To help you make the most of your sauna experience, here’s what we recommend packing:

  • Water Bottle (please no glass) – Staying hydrated is key. We’ll have a refill station with fresh water available and electrolyte hydration drinks available for purchase.

  • Swimwear – For community sessions, swimwear is required.

  • Towels – One towel for drying off and another to sit on in the sauna.

  • Bathrobe – Optional, but perfect for lounging between rounds especially in colder weather.

  • Easy Slip-On/Off Shoes – Like sandals or slides, so you can move between sauna, plunge, and rest areas with ease.

  • Arrive Ready – To maximize your time in the heat, please arrive dressed for your session. Changing space is available if needed.

  • Arrive Early – Plan to be here at least 15 minutes before your start time so you can settle in and get oriented.
