Chakradance is a practice that like yoga you can come back to again and again and always go deeper. The urge and need to dance goes back to our primal selves ... tune in to that very quiet and gentle, but unwavering voice, that from deep silence makes itself heard if we are but prepared to listen. Without judgement, and without force, it sets to making us whole, by helping us uncover what we need... attention, nurturing, expression... the list goes on.
You are invited to join us for this extraordinary experience of your 'ordinary' self in a circle of support and nurture. No experience of chakras or dancing necessary.
Gifting Yourself the Present –
A One Day Retreat for Women

All women have the innate potential of nurturing creativity, as all women carry within them the creative energy of the archetypal 'Mother'. Connecting to Nature is inspiring as it constantly reflects this unique creative potential. In choosing to Nurture the creativity that is a natural part of us, our ‘Mother’ energy is replenished and can then flow on as inspiration, care and nourishment to others.
In this retreat, you'll be invited to bring your full awareness to Nature and ‘fill your cup’ to overflowing. Through a range of experiential activities including visualisation, dance, drawing and writing, you'll be guided to connect to the beauty and creativity within you. There will be time to explore personal insights, and time to share with other women, in a beautiful, safe and relaxed environment. In the morning we'll be starting with a Chakradance workshop - Celebrating the Sacred Feminine within Us (details on this above), this is the ideal way to start as this dancing really opens you to your creativity, however if you only have limited time you may prefer to come just for the afternoon.
This retreat will be co-facilitated by Anne-Marie Hoyne & Helen Ferrara
Anne-Marie is a coach, facilitator and celebrant who combines a range of body-mind-spirit modalities to support women's healing, empowerment and transformation. Her loves include dancing, swimming in the ocean, being in circle with women and laughing with her family. (http://www.coessence.com.au/)
Helen is a mentor, facilitator and tutor with a PhD from researching creativity. She delights in finding the flow in connections previously unseen, having experienced that seeing a wider picture more clearly strengthens personal transformation. Dancing, being in nature and with her family, and continuing to learn about the feminine within us… are some of her passions. (http://www.creativenurture.com.au/)

Our intention for this retreat is to offer a nurturing space in which your natural creativity can flow. During the day we’ll spend time connecting with the elements and beauty of Nature. We’ll offer you a range of creative activities and encourage you to follow your own impulses to participate in whatever way feels right for you. This will be your gift to yourself, to perceive the beauty and wonder of what is by being present and allowing yourself to see your wholeness.
If you feel drawn to give this gift to yourself, or maybe ask a loved one to gift it to you, you're invited to book your place today...
