Softly release, expand & emerge into 2026

A gentle, nourishing retreat to close the year with intention before we step into 2026 with open hearts. Together in community, we’ll move, rest, celebrate, and create space to unfurl—slowly, softly, and with presence. In the quiet of winter, nature teaches us that stillness is sacred.

This retreat is a chance to pause, a time to breathe deeply, to soften and to tend to our bodies. Through stillness, movement and ritual, we begin to unfurl and celebrate the beauty of a new year together.

Everyone welcome

ABOUT JOANNA:

Joanna is an experienced facilitator who weaves mindful movement, breath, and playfulness into every class, workshop, and retreat. Since beginning her teaching journey in 2015, she’s trained in Vinyasa, Yin, Restorative, and Tantra yoga, with a deepening focus on embodiment, self-inquiry, and nervous system regulation. Her sessions invite subtle awareness, supporting deeper presence both on and off the mat.

Alongside teaching, Joanna offers Osteo-Thai bodywork around Barcelona, bringing her intuitive, healing touch to the community. Through years of travel, study, and immersion in ashrams and yoga schools, yoga has become more than a practice - it’s become a way of life.
Whether holding a retreat, a women’s circle, or a yoga class, Joanna’s heart lies in creating nourishing spaces for transformation, where people can slow down, reconnect, and come home to their bodies and breath.

ABOUT FIONA:

Fiona is a nervous system-informed somatic facilitator, space holder, ceremonial cacao and meditation guide, reiki healer, and founder of Thriving Essence; a sanctuary for women to reconnect with their bodies and return to their fullest expression of self.

Her work is rooted from her own lived experience of disconnection, re-membering, and learning to trust her body after being diagnosed with Endometriosis seven years ago.

Through somatic embodiment, cacao medicine, and cyclical living, Fiona weaves presence, empathy and ritual to create heart-led spaces where you can soften, listen with curiosity and attune to your body’s wisdom, moving toward a deeper understanding of yourself and thriving as your true essence.
