A Women’s Seasonal Movement Retreat Offering

Join the Dance is an invitation to connect with your heart and to rekindle the creative fires of your feminine spirit. As we open to the gifts of the season we allow nature to serve as a guide and resource to stir our creativity and support gentle healing from within. We release tensions in the body and come to know ourselves from the inside out. We celebrate the many facets of our being through movement, connection and flow.

Bio
Susan Gash is a certified movement analyst with over 25 years of professional dance theatre experience. She has toured and facilitated workshops in nine countries. Susan’s movement offerings are designed to explore, discover, and to celebrate the authentic self.

Intention and Focus
During a retreat we focus on messages from the season, nature, and the body. We ground in our feet. We expand in our chest with a full breath. We sense and feel the flow of life through fluid and gentle movements. We move together, draw and reflect. A safe and nurturing space is created to support growth, reflection and envisioning. Each woman's intention for the weekend is met with support and guidance.

Why come to a movement retreat?
This retreat provides an opportunity to connect with your deeper longings, awaken your desires and enliven your physical being. Being on retreat allows us the freedom to explore and discover our needs in a non-judgemental environment. We emerge with a fresh perspective and a rejuvenated spirit. Being on retreat offers a time to deeply renew in the company of other supportive women.

What to expect?
Taking time to feel and be in our body revitalizes us at our core opening the gateways for healing and creative visioning. When we move from our authentic self we walk in the path of beauty and grace. Prior experience is not necessary, only a willingness to join in the dance. Wear comfortable clothing!

What past retreatees have said:

I find myself now singing in the car dancing around the house, smiling for no reason. I have you and the other women from the weekend to thank for that. Ann F., St. Louis, MO.

I was finally able to write this last story which I needed to do…I think the retreat helped me dissolve the barrier I had in my way.
Paulette F., St. Michaels, MD.

Recently, I have felt a stronger urge to step into my own true calling - sharing my talents and insights with others …And so many of them have been inspired by you and the women I've met on retreat.
Sam E., Minneapolis, MN.

Thank you all for your kindness, your support and your willingness to share your hearts so openly.
Jan H., York, PA.
