Join us in beautiful Evia, Greece this summer for a women’s retreat of embodied healing through sacred dance, yoga, and devotional song. I am so excited to share this new offering with sisters from around the world! In this retreat we will dive deep into the soul trait of compassion (Rahma/Rehem- womb) connecting us to the divine mother, eternal source of compassion. Through our dance, song and chant we will explore how we can embody the divine mother and the soul trait of compassion. We will open our hearts and bodies to deep healing from the movement experiences, ocean currents, sisterhood and songs for the mother.

Each day we will journey through morning yoga practices, ritual infused dance, vocal sessions, frame drumming, and guided improvisation. The immersion will culminate in a site-specific prayer-formance of song and dance in the temple of Delphi. It will be a deeply layered ritual that will include all of our collective sacred movement practices, prayers, songs and intentions for calling compassion into our lives and into the world.
