Bridging The Gap…..
Yoga & Pilates Retreats
MahaDevi Yoga Retreat……
Mother Daughter Divine Feminine Retreat
Ubud, Bali Sunday 31st August - 5th September 2025
MahaDevi…. Maha, means Great.. Devi means Goddess. So this retreat is about the Great Goddess, which is YOU!
This retreat is special. Here we get to Bridge The Gap between the lineage of Mother and Daughter. Something many of us may never fully understand the depth of this divine connection.
We get to deeply explore what the Divine feminine truly is, and breakdown and fully connect in with the deepest of our souls and work together as women, the way nature intended. Even if your lineage line is very strong, there is something powerful in taking time to fully bond with each other. And this is exactly what we will be exploring on this 5 day retreat with The Movement Shala.
Through giving yourself time out in a retreat setting, you can explore more of the physical, mental and emotional levels of the body and mind. And really start to feel ALIVE in this vehicle that we are in (body).
We get to explore what we are passing down consciously and subconsciously. We get to explore and understand our presence here on this earth. We explore how to raise conscious and strong females and males within your blood line. How to fully support ourselves and our family and our other sisters (women). We look at how we are replenishing our Ojas. Our divine feminine juice that dry’s out over time, with over stimulation and not giving back to ourselves.
WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THIS 5 NIGHT RETREAT:
Once you arrive a at the venue (Ananda Cottages, Ubud), everything is taken care of. The rooms are beautiful and balinese style. I encourage that you share a room with your lineage line, but if you need your own room that is perfectly fine.
Upon arrival we will commence meeting at the shala for a beautiful welcome circle and digest through our bag of goodies for the week and what is expected and encouraged of yourselves to get the most out of the retreat.
🌱 MORNING YOGA PRACTICES:
5 x 90 min morning Vinyasa yoga practice. Vinyasa yoga is a heating type of practice and builds throughout the class. There will always be options for all, however I do encourage that you have some type of regular yoga practice to make this retreat more accessible.
5 x 20 min morning mediation and pranayama sessions. Pranayama is moving life force through the body.
2 x afternoon yin and deep restoration practices.
🌱 WORKSHOPS:
We explore some beautiful workshops that will create an amazing bond between mother and daughter. There is a total of 3 workshops. A deep dive into the understanding of the divine feminine from ancestral lineage to now. Rights of passage and what has ben lost over time. We look deep into the different stages of life, and understand the way hormones govern our running system of the body (especially as women). We will understand and appreciate ways to move our bodies through different stages of life and the way nature intended us too. This will include the role and functions of your adrenal and cortisol levels as you age, moving through the different chapters of life from maiden to crone.
A traditional cooking workshop, working with flavour and food as an expression of ‘creation’. A really nice afternoon where food will be shared at the end.
A 4 hour Batik art workshop. Batik is both an art and a craft, which is becoming ever more popular and well known among contemporary artists all over the world, as a wonderfully creative medium. The art of decorating cloth using wax and dye, has been practised for centuries in many parts of the world including China, Japan, India, South America and Europe. In Java, an island in Indonesia, batik is part of an ancient tradition, and some of the finest batik cloth in the world is still made there.
🌱 ACCOMODATION & FOOD:
5 nights in the gorgeous Ananda Cottages. Sharing a room would be ideal, but single are available also.
5 x Post yoga green smoothies are offered after class.
5 x Healthy brunch & dinner daily.
You will also have plenty of time to read, wander around ubud and find some beautiful cafes nestled up in the rice fields.
Fill your cup up again from your deep inner core , both physically and energetically, and keep your divine feminine alive!
If you have read this far, I encourage to take the plunge and come and explore this inner journey. A truly magical week dedicated to you and your mother/daughter and understanding the quality and deep connection, we as females, have in this world.
Any Mother and Daughter may attend.. Minimum age is 16 to be able to comprehend the workshops and the practice we are doing.
