Retreat Highlights

We have had hosted and held space for students from all walks of life and from all corners of the globe. If you have never played an instrument before, have no background in music but are curious, this course is a great place to start. Equally, we often have participants who are already skilled in instrumentation, professionals who are established and are confident that from beginners to the adept there is something here for everyone.
The takeaways from the course are well suited and a great addition for those who already work with existing modalities such as Yoga, Meditation, Medical and Hospice workers and Therapists of all kinds who wish to add to their toolbelt.
It is great for those too who may feel stuck in an area of life and looking for a retreat to reset and lift them into their more creative and insightful self.
Come to learn, to give or simply receive the dynamic processes within the well held and professional space of our ceremonial family.

Incredible to say the least!

This was my first time sitting with aya and I can not even begin to explain how incredible it was for me. This retreat absolutely exceeded my expectations. The guides are fully involved and supportive throughout the full experience during and after each ceremony. The community, the food, the team, and the whole stay was honestly unbelievable. I feel grateful to have learned all that I did and to gained so much clarity that I will be able to integrate into my life going forward. Thank you to Jaya and Hayley for opening up your home to allow people to grow in such a beautiful, powerful way.

Aya ceremony @ Casa Floresta

I’ve participated in and hosted many Aya ceremonies but the depth, integrity and beauty of my ceremony was unmistakably the very best ceremony of my life. The purity and beauty of the medicine holder and her team was life-changing, coupled with the profound temple space at Casa Floresta made for a synergy that was deeply healing and elevating.

Feeling hope

It has been a lot to live in this world at this time. It's easy to lose hope and feel like there is more wrong than there is right. I have felt called to deepen my spiritual practices and to strengthen my sense of truth so that I can be more resourced for others, and last weekend's retreat was EXACTLY what I needed! I am feeling reset; more centered, and more able to be in my joy. I feel doors opening and soul family growing. There is so much hope! Grateful beyond words for this experience.
