Dance Art and Voice – a retreat for all women

About the retreat
The retreat will be a space for creativity, sharing circles, voice workshops, conscious dance and meditative art in one of the most beautiful settings in the Lincolnshire countryside, with eco domes, a tea hut, yoga and meditation space, campfire, wood-fired hot tubs and space to wander, journal walk and reflect.
The whole retreat centre is designed to give you the experience of living amongst nature, but in very nurturing, comfortable and inspiring surroundings.
The retreat is fully catered, starting with dinner on Friday and ending with lunch on Sunday, with delicious wheat-free vegan food from local chef Holly’s Kitchen.
