My 4th Ecstatic Dance retreat at Embercombe and I hope to do more! Somehow Renée manages to put together experiences that are consistent in their quality, distinctive in their flavour and exceptionally inclusive across age, outlook and heritage. The magic starts almost immediately as unique individuals dance, mix and connect in the space that Renée, her co-facilitators and the amazing Embercombe team curate so beautifully. It’s hard to believe so much of value to such a diverse group of people can emerge so quickly. Many of the connections made by participants go on to be long term. The land and wildlife there also hold a very special kind of peace. I’ve never found anything quite like it anywhere else. Thank you.

I have returned fully nurtured and my heart is full….The attention to detail from everyone was amazing ..Embercombe is incredible. It’s people so kind, loving and committed ….considering it was so muddy, everywhere was kept so clean with constant attention from them. I loved that they put vases of nature in all the wash rooms tables etc! It seemed nothing was too much. The food too echoed the love I felt so well nourished. And nurtured by them and the surrounding natures beauty As for the Ecstatic Dance crew: Facilitators, DJ’s, workshop leaders, yoga teacher, kirtan cacao ceremony givers and space angels —I salute you! You are all so passionate generous and Kind. Such a fabulous experience there’s nothing more I could have wished for! Thank you

The retreat was located in a beautiful location, surrounded by nature! It was held by a beautiful team of professional and experienced facilitators who radiated so much love, support, and good energy to everyone on the retreat. I cannot recommend this retreat enough! It's the best thing you can do for yourself if you are looking for connection, open-heartedness and lots of dance!!

Well...where do I start! I came back from the Aug Ecstatic Dance retreat a couple of weeks ago and I'm still integrating it all. It was deep, insightful, intense, immense, loving & beautiful! You know those moments that are so magical that you cry from experiencing the next level of 'beauty'...i had many of these moments as the layers of conditioning release spontaneously, the music & movement that carry & connect you to experience the sheer beauty of a living moment. To feel truly alive in your body, heart fully open to the divine. Those moments where you feel everything and that's okay. The retreat was so well crafted, each team member bringing their realness, authenticity & gifts. Thank you. I felt confident and at home in the dance, breath & singing sessions. I felt shy & introvert in the social settings during lunch and free time as I came knowing no one. And that's okay :-) I met some truly lovely people and I am in awe of the facilitators. I learnt alot on a personal & professional level being a facilitator myself. I am so very grateful 🙏 Embercombe as a venue is utter perfection. Literally heaven on Earth. I will be back :-)
