WEEKEND RETREAT
with Lindsey Marie Silver

This is a Hybrid Class
Lindsey Marie Silver

Lindsey Marie Silver, founder of Sahara Studio

With over 20 years of professional performance and gold-standard teaching, Lindsey has empowered and transformed the lives of women worldwide. Her unique blend of dance, fitness, and wellness, combined with a natural, intuitive approach, is celebrated as life-affirming and transformative. Many of her students describe their experience as truly life-changing.

I believe, one of the most profoundly healing and beautiful things any woman can experience in her lifetime is the true love of community sisterhood.

If you've found your way here to this invitation it's not by chance or mistake, it's by intention. You've manifest this, we've manifest this, together. Our wild inner calling can't be hushed anymore... let’s bring back the village!

This is your invitation, your opportunity, to be held, loved, worshipped and supported wherever you're at right now, within the rare togetherness of genuine sacred sisterhood.

A container where we can alchemise lead into gold, from stagnant mud grow vibrant sensual lotus flowers. In circle together. It's where we belong. Goddesses together.

This is what Sahara was set up for and I must apologise, sincerely, for it taking 11 years at 11C and another 8 nomadic years before that to finally birth this for us, however, now, collectively, we're ready... and we mustn’t wait any longer!

Let’s dive into nourishing wholesome feminine magic together this Samhain season of harvest, death and life renewal..

Over the potent 2 nights and 3 days of Samhain weekend 2024 you're invited to drop deep into a plethora of women's dance, wellness and spirituality workshops, walks, relaxations and togetherness. It'll be a transformative relaxing time and a first in the history of our community!

The schedule is being finalised and will remain fluid to the needs of the group in realtime, however, here's a good idea of how the weekend will flow...

OPTIONAL RESIDENTIAL or day retreat You’re welcome to have your own bed at home/book a local hotel/sleep over.

Residential - Sleepover style, sleeping communally on our sacred desert floor. It's advised you bring your own camping mat, sleeping bag, pillow, eye mask. We have additional blankets.

CLOTHING Friday night glam, Saturday & Sunday comfortable leisurewear, warm PJs, something like a sarong/wearable veil for massage, a dress you can move and feel beautiful in and a coverup like a galabeya are suggested.

FOOD Potluck style lunches and dinners. Please bring food to share for Friday night, Saturday lunch & dinner, Sunday lunch & dinner. Vegan where possible. Breakfasts are yours to yourself.

BRING YOUR OWN Cup, bowl, plate, knife, fork, spoon that you can identify as yours. If we all take responsibility for our own this maximises everyone's time spent in sacred communion.

CO-CREATION Be ready to take a turn cleaning, tidying, emptying bins and helping set up activities etc for the greater good.
If you’re qualified in a healing modality, offer readings etc there may also be an opportunity to share short gifted sessions during allocated co-creation time

BOOKING Booking the retreat as a whole provides exclusive wellness benefits and a saving of over £150 if all sessions were booked individually. Day tickets will be bookable individually (going live soon) and priced at the going rate.

SUPPORT SAHARA It's anticipated that revenue from this retreat, if well supported, will support Sahara in similar ongoing sacred space holding, and there's hope this can become an annual retreat.

COMMUNITY FUND SPACES

  • 1x Community Fund space (full weekend) is available at £111
  • 1x Community Fund space (full weekend) is available at £55.50
