PLENTY - dance . song . connection - conscious dance retreat with Caitlin 2025

I invite you to join me for another delicious deep dive into the medicine of dance, weaving together the practices of Dancing Freedom & Open Floor together with voice exploration & heart songs from around the world, ceremony & yoga. PLENTY brings a time of harvest, gathering & abundance in reciprocity with the earth. A grounded fullness, round and rich.

I am so delighted to once again be joined again by the amazing team that came together to create our first COURAGE retreat in August 2022, and the nine retreats since as we cycle through the FULL CIRCLE series - PLENTY, THRESHOLD, COURAGE & BELONGING: the wonderful & wise Sara-Jane Cleland & Sue Tsigaros offering Yoga, Sacred Altars, Emotional Support & Space-holding.

We are so happy to be returning to the gorgeous Heartspace Retreat Centre in Yass, on the beautiful country of Ngunnawal. All organic food lovingly prepared by chef Angie Cowen - including local seasonal produce straight from the garden!

Our retreat lands halfway between Summer Solstice and Autumn Equinox - traditionally known as the Celtic festival of Lunasa - a time to celebrate all that we have gathered in this last season, to celebrate all of the gifts and the challenges,

A time to listen closely for what is asking to be honoured and acknowledged so that we can move forward in life.

A time to cultivate gratitude for everything we receive, and generosity with everything we have to share.

A time to remember the medicines of dance & song,

Of sharing stories and gathering around the fire.

These simple things that remind us how to live a meaningful life,

A soulful life.

A time to come together

To share and learn

And to reclaim our birthright

To live in connection and reciprocity with the earth and each other.

A time to nourish, to heal, to harvest all that we have learned and to begin again refreshed & inspired.

A time to know that we are worthy

That our lives matter

That we are needed now

That we have something of value to bring

Gifts to offer and be received.

A time of PLENTY.
