What's it like?

I’ve found a couple massage workshops in August or September that I’m interested in attending, or possibly a yoga workshop. There are so many great things offered, it seems hard to pick just one! I know workshop participants have full access to the grounds, hot tubs and art barn when a class isn’t in session, but I’m curious about what else there is to do there (that is somewhat organized). If I enroll in a massage workshop, for instance, would I have the opportunity to do yoga?
