The Emerge Winter Retreat is what we all need this winter to lean in to the darker days. Join this small group container for a restorative evening series of dance and dialogue. We will remind ourselves that it is from this darkness that we grow and move back toward the light. We will be drawing from 2 books for our weekly themes. These are suggested readings.

"The Emerge Retreat is a hard reset for your nervous system" -Emerge Participant (attended all 3 retreats)
"I would definitely consider making this investment in yourself. For me, the retreat was life changing. I felt nurtured, seen and heard by an amazing group of women, fostering a true sense of belonging." - Emerge Fall 2022 Retreat Participant
"The Emerge Retreat is unlike anything that I have done or heard about. I think the most important part to share would be the collective sharing of all our experiences, past and present while there. A chance to go deep into what your spirit and body need at this moment in time in a safe space to be vulnerable with an incredibly supportive community. You will laugh, cry, dance, play and feel genuine joy." - Emerge Fall Retreat 2023 Participant
"Exercise is always great, but there's something special about Emerge. The special sauce is in the combination of Erika's prompts and guidance, the playlists, and the movement combinations. It opens you up. It's magical." - Emerge Costa Rica Retreat Participant
