Renee Goot is the founder and owner of Syracuse Therapeutic Yoga. She practices yoga, leads classes and workshops, and supports one-on-one clients and community at her studio in Camillus, NY.

Renee holds certifications in Yoga Therapy, Yoga Teaching, Adaptive Yoga, Love Your Brain Yoga, Trauma Informed Yoga, Chakra Yoga, Yoga Nidra, Meditation, and Somatic Movement. She is also a Reiki Master.

With years of experience in Therapeutic Yoga and mindfulness practices, Renee specializes in guiding individuals into calm and balance through accessible, body-centered approaches.

Her teaching is grounded, supportive, and welcoming—especially for those who are new to yoga or meditation. Renee’s sessions emphasize slow, intentional movement and deep relaxation, making them ideal for those seeking stress relief, nervous system regulation, or a quiet pause from daily life.

At the Harvest Root Retreat, Renee offers a nurturing space where participants can unwind, reconnect with themselves, and explore tools for ongoing wellbeing. Her calm presence, humor, and thoughtful guidance help cultivate a retreat experience that is both grounding and empowering.

This will be the third Harvest Root Retreat. The retreat was a dream of Renee's that continues to grow and evolve. In her previous career as a counselor, Renee realized the healing that comes from connecting with people and finding support for their individual and unique self. She designed this retreat so people in the community may join together, learn with and from one another, and know that they are loved and deserve restorative joy!

The Himalayan Institute is a favorite place of Renee's and she is excited to share it with you.
