Start your New Year in meditation, movement and song with Neva and Raffles! This will be a silent weekend infused with sitting and walking meditation, yoga, singing, and ceremony. All the spaces will be lightly guided and held, though some experience in each of these practices will be helpful. We will meditate alternating sessions of 30 minutes of seated meditation with 10 minutes of walking meditation. There will sometimes be light guidance during meditation and other periods will be fully in silence.
Amongst still snow, vast skies, and quiet earth, this three day journey of activity, rest, connection and play will include an arrangement of modalities to help you connect to your inner creative fire. A retreat of contemplative, creative and community practices with interdisciplinary rituals of making, moving, sharing, and discovering. “The Winter Artist” retreat invites your full artistry to awaken and create within a structured group cohort. Treat yourself with ease, and see what arises!
We are in-process for Loom Ensemble’s next show, and are welcoming new collaborators into the creative process! This fall, winter and spring, we’ll gather about once a month for either a long weekend or full-week intensives. In these creative work periods, we welcome performers (dancers, actors, musicians), writers, composers, designers, dramaturgs — we’ll be approaching the material from all angles.

A women’s weekend of journal making, meditation, movement, connection, and creativity. Over the course of the retreat, we will make our own paper and create hand-bound journals in which to write and paint, incorporating natural objects found in the forest! This reflective process will be supported by guided meditation, movement sessions, delicious food, good community, and plenty of time to follow your own inspiration.
This Contact Improvisation retreat is infused with Ryuta’s life research, SOTAI(祖体), “Ancestral Body” where you will be guided through embodiment practices of sensing, moving and resting of your body as well as journaling, drawing, and vocalization.
