This retreat is for anyone who feels called to reconnect with their body, heart, and spirit through movement, community, and soulful practices. You do not need pole dance experience — just a willingness to explore.

It may be especially resonant if you are:

• Craving time away from daily responsibilities to rest, recharge, and reset in the grounding beauty of New Mexico

• Longing to cultivate deeper self-love, confidence, and compassion

• Curious about using pole, yoga, and other embodied practices as a path of healing and empowerment

• Moving through life transitions, grief, or transformation and seeking supportive community

• Ready to experience the desert as a sacred container for creativity, ritual, and soul work

• Wanting to be witnessed, celebrated, and encouraged by a circle of like-hearted people

We all come from unique backgrounds. Hate or intolerance of any kind will not be tolerated. We honor the origins of pole and will not tolerate negative attitudes or judgments of strippers or sex workers. Additionally, we will not tolerate any type of racism, sexism, fatphobia, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any other form of discrimination or bigotry.

This is a 420-friendly event. Alcohol will not be provided. You are free to bring your own alcohol, but we ask that you consume responsibly and safely.

New Mexico is known as the Land of Enchantment — rich in culture, art, desert landscapes, and healing traditions. The climate can be dry, with warm days and cool nights, so hydration and layering clothing is important. The land itself is deeply soulful and grounding — an ideal backdrop for this retreat. We highly suggest you extend your stay if possible to be able to experience the true enchantment of this special place.

If you can extend your trip, we highly recommend it! New Mexico has so much to see and do and you will get a small taste on the excursions during the retreat. If you do decide to extend, here are some recommendations:

• Santa Fe: art galleries, Meow Wolf, La Choza Restaurant, Cross of the Martyrs, Santa Fe Opera

• Taos: mountain views, natural hot springs, Taos Pueblo (a UNESCO World Heritage site), Taos Gorge, Orlandos Restaurant

• Albuquerque: Sandia Mountains, Old Town, Sandia Tram, Indian Pueblo Cultural Center, Route 66, El Patio Restaurant, Durans Central Pharmacy, The Rio Grande Bosque, Petroglyph National Park, Volcanos

• Other Recommendations: Bandelier National Monument, White Sands, Acoma Sky City Pueblo, Jemez National Forest, Tent Rocks
