About the event

Cultures all over the world have pelvic-centered dances that have traditionally been performed by women, whether it's one of the many forms of belly dance, Nigerian dance, or even the hula dance found in Hawaii. Dancing from our sacred center is in our blood. During this luxurious weekend in the mountains, we'll explore what belly dance means to us as women. We'll learn about different styles of belly dance, from ancient to modern, all while relaxing with a group of fun, supportive women. Whether you're an experienced dancer, or you're just curious about belly dance, you're welcome to attend!

All meals will be provided:

  • Friday-dinner
  • Saturday-breakfast, lunch, dinner
  • Sunday-breakfast, lunch

Please let us know if you have any dietary requirements. Additionally, a full kitchen is available for use if you'd like to bring your own food or snacks. 

Gentle yoga sessions will be held Saturday and Sunday morning before breakfast. A group reiki session will also be provided. There will also be an opportunity to book a private massage and/or private reiki session at the Elohee center during Saturday's free time.

All workshops will take place in The Thanksgiving House on the grounds of Elohee Retreat Center in Sautee Nacoochee. The space is situated next to a 100-foot waterfall and is about a 15-minute walk to Bald Mountain.
