Event description

Women as daughters, mothers, grandmothers, sisters, partners and friends we give to others. It is in our very nature to be givers and carers. To give fully with unconditional love, without resentment, irritability and anger we too must receive.

This weekend retreat is an opportunity for you to explore the relationship between giving and receiving, to delve into the cyclic nature of the inward and outward and to discover ways to nurture and nourish yourself in the busyness of daily life.

Join your sisters at an awesome bush retreat near Nowra to swim in the river; to stretch and expand with daily yoga, relaxation and meditation; feast on nourishing organic vegetarian food; release through conscious dance; gather around the fire to sing and share stories and sit in sacred circle to gain and share women’s wisdom.

Cost all inclusive.

Sara-Jane Cleland is a Dancing Freedom Facilitator, Naturopath, Herbalist, Nutritionist & Massage Therapist specializing in Cranio-sacral/Somatic Healing work who has made her home on Gundungurra land in the Southern Highlands since 2008. Her journey as a holistic practitioner began over 25 years ago as a Yoga teacher and organically evolved into Bodywork, Naturopathy and Conscious Dance.

In 2016, she discovered 5 rhythms dance on retreat with Gina Chick which inspired a journey to the Byron Bay hinterland for intensive training in Dancing Freedom in 2018. Since 2019, she has offered monthly Dancing Freedom full moon events and in 2020 she created the Women's Embodied Dance Journey which she runs each school term. Sara-Jane has been a regular educator at Wise Women's Gathering since the inaugural gathering in 2016 and co-facilitated annual Nurture & Nourish Women's Retreats from 2017 until 2022. She also co-facilitates Mother & Daughter retreats in the Kangaroo Valley.

Sara-Jane regularly supports Caitlin Wood (Dancing Freedom & Open Floor) and Michelle Mahrer (5 Rhythms) on conscious dance retreats, space-holding, offering yoga and creating sacred altars. She is often a guest teacher for conscious dance classes in Sydney and collaborates with Libby Lee, Rebecca Riddington and Diana Belot to offer regular Heart Medicine events - Cacao ceremony, Dancing Freedom and Somatic Breathwork in Manly, Sydney.

The passion that inspires her work is connection. Connection to the healing power of nature through food as medicine, herbal medicine and grounding practices. Connection to the innate healing power of the body through Bodywork and Conscious Dance. Connection to communitycoming together for dance retreats, full moon events and women's work. And most importantly, providing an opportunity for connection to oneself through self-love and creative expression.
