We are excited to offer our very first retreat, in the heart of the gorgeous Hudson Valley in @groundworks.space during the peak of Spring. This Movement for Actors retreat is meant for actors who are ready for a deep dive into their body, for intensity and play in an intimate setting that allows you to fully drop out of the rhythms of every day life and come back a bolder, more physical story teller.
Led by @omridru and @zinazzz in sunrise to sunset programming, this 3 day experience will offer you new and transformative tools to challenge your body, care for it and work with it to elevate your craft. DM for more information and to get an invitation. The venue has a limited capacity and there are only a handful of spots left!
So much of my personal journey and my work as a doula have been about shifting how we relate to having wombs and menstruation.
What if the experience we were taught to see as an inconvenience is actually a portal to our power, pleasure, and embodiment?
What if there are ways we can care for our wombs that support deeper connection with the Earth, our bodies and pain-free, easeful periods?
If you have felt this disconnection, painful menstruation, or desire to align more deeply with your cycle, join me for my Radiant Womb retreat @groundworks.space May 15-17th.

Spring Katonah Yoga Retreat—
April 30th - May 3
A few spots left!
We return to the magnificent @groundworks.space , upstate NY, just two hours outside of New York City, for our annual spring yoga retreat.
Hear the actual sounds and feelings to what lies ahead. 🐦⬛💫
Wake to pink illuminating the Shawangunk Mountains, birdsongs filling the air, the scent of fresh grass and beautiful flowers blossoming on the land and trees— every plant and animal is overjoyed to participate in the uncovering and emergence of spring.
Expect immersive practices of yoga, breath-work and meditation, surrounded by incredible people, delicious farm-to-table vegetarian food, and plenty of time to relax & replenish — dip into the sauna or jacuzzi, take walks, hike, drive to town or the winery, and visit the infamous farm stand where Enook makes her kimchi — not to be missed!
It’s always so incredible to experience the somatic shifts that occur from just a weekend - leaving with nourishment and inspiration. Come add your greatness to the experience. ✨
All info on my website, or DM me with Q’s.

Now Pay-What-You-Can!
In response to our current social/economic/political climate, we would like to open up enrollment to a “pay-what-you-can” structure, beginning at a suggested donation of $250 for an all-inclusive experience. That means lodging, food, and intentionally cultivated somatic experiences.
Things feel unstable right now - which makes it even more important to us to unearth ways to connect and be present with self, with shifting, with sensation. But, we want to acknowledge that this might not feel like an appropriate time to spend money on a weekend retreat. We hear that! If you are willing and able to pay more, we have the same sliding scale pay structure. Your support helps make present and future iterations of this project possible by helping us meet our overhead - venue and cleaning fees, nourishing food, and compensation for our time.
Thank you! We love you bodies!
