Finally.
For years we’ve gathered through screens, shared tears across continents, celebrated breakthroughs from thousands of miles apart, and built one of the most extraordinary communities of women in the world. Now it’s time to come home to each other. Welcome to The Shakti School Grand Gathering. An unforgettable week at the Sivananda Ashram in the Bahamas where our global family gathers in real life for our deepest, most embodied Tantra immersion yet. Bring your husband, wife, partner, boyfriend, girlfriend, best friend or soul companion. This event is open to everyone.
This is not another yoga retreat. It is not just any vacation. It is a living laboratory of consciousness where Ayurveda, Tantra, neuroscience, psychology and physiology become one integrated experience. Imagine if Carl Jung, an ancient Himalayan Yogini, a world-class strength coach, and the latest neuroscience research all sat around the same fire. This is where the mystical meets the measurable. Where the chakra system becomes a map of your nervous system. Where prana meets fascia, breath transforms the brain, movement rewires emotion, and ancient wisdom explains what modern science is only beginning to discover. Together we’ll explore how to work with the intelligence of your own body to metabolize the past, liberate trapped energy, awaken your deepest vitality, and become a clear channel for the life you’re here to create. And the best part? Each day you will have plenty of free time to rest, swim in the incredible turquoise waters and enjoy the amazing food at the ashram with beautiful souls.
During this extraordinary retreat, you will experience:
Come remember what your body has known all along.
Come gather with The Shakti School people.
Come experience Tantra not as philosophy, but as living, breathing reality.
We’ll see you on the beaches of the Bahamas!
We suggest you arrive at least one day prior to the start of this course and stay until at least one day after the course ends for the optimal experience.
