embodied song RETREAT

6 - 9 june 2025, seia, portugal

Meeting voice from body, with heart, as prayer. 

 

Three days of vocal exploration, harmony singing, therapeutic voice work and improvisation, with nourishing food and morning yoga.​

​

Three days of vocal exploration, harmony singing, therapeutic voice work and improvisation with delicious food and morning yoga, at a beautiful venue in the Serra da Estrela mountains in central Portugal.​​

Quinta Darnella is a stunning mountain side retreat centre in the Serra Da Estrella in central Portugal. Katy and Steve - the guardians of the land - have created a stunning retreat venue, with respect and honour of the native trees and plants, with beautiful yurts and bell tents, an outdoor yoga deck, a gorgeous outdoor kitchen and an ancient roman built swimming pool all nestled in a beautiful green valley with epic views and bubbling crystal springs and rivers close by (and outdoor flushing toilets!) It has this unique energy of feeling totally held and nestled, but expansive and free at the same time.
