Connection, Creativity, and Joyful Embodiment

This five‑day immersion is designed for women seeking deep renewal and offers a spacious, nurturing environment to reconnect with yourselves in a community infused with warmth, wisdom, and supportive energy. Guided by Kerrie Bodendorf, you’ll move through empowering Groove and MELT classes that unlock vitality, ease, and fluidity in your body. These practices harmonize breath with movement, helping you release tension, restore balance, and return home to yourself.

The retreat's rhythm unfolds gently, with daily sharing circles, reflective journaling, intention‑setting, and meditative drawing sessions that spark creativity, calm the nervous system, and support mindful expression. These practices create a supportive container where you can explore your inner landscape, be witnessed, and feel deeply held by a like‑hearted sisterhood.

Each morning begins in sacred stillness, inviting you to settle inward, breathe deeply, and awaken with clarity. Evenings bring joyful community connection: relax with guided reflection and gentle practices, or lift your spirit through fun group singalongs, where voices rise together in harmony and laughter. On the final night, we celebrate with an all‑request dance party, moving freely to music that brings joy, release, and pure exhilaration.

In this retreat, you will experience:

  • Groove and MELT classes
  • Daily sharing circles and reflective journaling
  • Meditative drawing sessions
  • Guided reflection and evening connection
  • Community singalongs and joyful dance party

Guided by an expert teacher within a space designed for transformation, you will leave this retreat refreshed, empowered, and deeply connected to yourself and to a vibrant, supportive community of women.

NOTE: This program is open to all those who identify as femme or female-bodied. Some previous meditation experience helpful. Some classes will involve movement. Please bring your own MELT soft roller and therapy balls.
