Shamanic Trance Dance


I invite you to join me in this delightfully, energising Shamanic Trance Dance experience. 

In sacred space, guided and supported by me you will journey through dance using a blindfold, breath, music and the nature of intention. Here you will have the opportunity to withdraw from your external environment and dance with the deeper aspects of your being for strength, wisdom, energy, healing and the reclamation of personal power.

This Shamanic Trance Dance ritual is open to anyone who wishes to get out of their heads and into their heart and experience themselves more deeply. Come with an open mind and heart and you will not be disappointed.

Please bring with you a cushion and wear comfortable clothing, possibly layers so you can remove layers if you wish. 

Price: £35, includes refreshments.

About your Shamanic Guide Vicky:

I have been exploring spirituality, healing and working with energy since the mid 90’s. And for over a decade has been working with women and men, from all walks of life supporting their energetic, healing and spiritual journeys.

I have spent extended periods of time in South America on her own personal journey, working with indigenous Shamans as well as co-creating several retreats in Ecuador. During this time I also immersed myself in a yoga teacher training in Bolivia and Peru and now uses yoga in a shamanic context, in addition to shamanic dance, healing and ritual practices.

Finding easy ways to access these ancient rituals and tapping into inner wisdom beyond the mind are an important part of my work, which I enjoy sharing within group experiences and retreats as well as on guided personal journeys and healings.

Shamanic Trance Dance Retreat - Summer Solstice

to Jun 14

Shamanic Trance Dance Retreat - Summer Solstice

Join me for my Summer Solstice retreat... My intention is to guide you on a journey, deep within yourself, in sacred space – to reconnect with your own power, strength, clarity, unique expression and innate wisdom. Whilst embracing the whole of you, this dynamic journey will also focus more deeply on embodying the sacred feminine life force within you

During this retreat you will:
• Centre and deepen within yourself, reconnecting to the power of your navel/womb, heart and soul
• Transmute stories, wounds and conditioning you may have around ‘mother’ , ‘woman’, ‘sexuality’ and the ‘feminine’
• Access and embody the deeply visceral and powerful energies of this feminine, sexual and creative life force within you
• Be unafraid to then bring this potent and vital force out into your life

Summer is the season when the energy available to us is heightened, so much fresh growth around, abundance everywhere. Profuse creativity and expression is the language of this time, joyfully and unashamedly indulgent.  When deeply anchored within ourselves and our channels clear and open, we can truly harness this vibrant and creative life force within and beautifully channel this into the manifestations of all of our visions and intentions, empowering our potentials into being.

On this retreat journey together we will experience a variety of tools, rituals and ceremonies to allow us to transform self imposed boundaries and limitations that prevent us from living a life of meaning, connection and purpose.

The experiences I will facilitate on our journey will take you beyond your linear mind and allow you to embody the loving, creative, energising, healing and fertile aspects of your being more deeply.

If you are interested in joining this experience then please fill out the form below to arrange a time to talk. I prefer to connect with everyone who wants to participate in this kind of work prior to the retreat.

By working with your body, breath, dance, music and movement in a variety of rituals and ceremonies you will become clearer, more energised and empowered to live and embrace life more fully. You will experience new realities within yourself you have never previously conceived of and feel a deeper connection to the Earth Mother and our brothers and sisters here on the planet. You will feel safe and nurtured and more present and embodied within your soul and Spirit.

Here’s a taste of what you will experience on our journey together:
• Shamanic Trance Dances – using breath, rhythm, blindfold and the nature of intention to journey through dancing with the deeper aspects of your being, for strength, healing, wisdom and the reclamation of personal power
• Animal Medicine Dynamic Journey – embracing this animal medicine within you, to assist you on your journey in reclaiming your power and accessing your own medicine and gifts
• Maternal Ancestors Walk – accessing the power and strength of this stream of consciousness, by being acutely present with the energy within yourself, burning through karma, transcending stories and reconnecting with your deeper maternal ancestral roots. These roots ultimately connects us all to one mother and our brothers and sisters here on the planet
• Fire ceremony
• Shamanic exercise and meditation
• Celebration and manifestation Trance Dance – infusing your intention with the breath (spiritual energy), letting go and dancing them into being… celebrating the journey you have chosen to walk upon.
• Closing ceremony – after working in sacred space this will prepare you for your emergence back into your lives and assist with the process of integration

This retreat has been especially created to honour and welcome the upcoming Summer Solstice, when this unbridled growth period reaches her peak, with the longest day and the shortest night, before the wheel gradually turns more inwardly again. We will have the opportunity to joyfully harness the increase of light and vibrancy still available to us, energising our fullest expression, whilst also celebrating our achievements that are ripening from within…

This retreat is for you if: 
• You’re willing to surrender and let go, to trust in a bigger picture and deepen your experience within yourself
• You love to move, dance, stretch and be facilitated to get out of your head and into your heart and body
• You are willing to face your fears, and the potential of feeling some discomfort, before the break through emerges
• You are ready to transmute old, outdated patterns and transcend old paradigms that have held you back
• Whilst being deeply held, you are ready and willing to take responsibility for yourself and your journey unfolding

This journey will be held at the beautiful, peaceful and eco friendly West Lexham retreat centre, in Norfolk. We have full use of the barn and surrounding accommodation in the courtyard, with our own private garden. Whilst also having access to the boating lake and wider grounds if we wish. I’ve chosen this retreat centre as the grounds and buildings have a beautiful, special, clear energy, which truly supports the deep process we will be embarking on.

The Retreat includes en-suite accommodation, delicious vegetarian, wheat and dairy free meals and all dance, rituals, ceremonies and healing journeys with me. (Also please let me know if you have any other dietary requirements before booking and I’ll see if it’s possible to accommodate them).

Spring is the season when nature supports us in fully letting go of what no longer serves us and embracing the vital and beautifully fertile life force within us.

This retreat has been especially created to honour and welcome the vital energies of the Spring Equinox, this deeply rich and fertile time.  She makes no excuses for living and has a clear direction and focus in manifesting her intentions. This is one of two special times in the year, when day and night are of equal length and support a moment out of time. This gives us a space to come back to our centres, let go of what no longer serves us and re-ignite our intentions before fully emerging into the power of our fullest expression…

Imbolc Trance Dance

Imbolc Trance Dance

Click here to book tickets


In the Celtic calender Imbolc is the point where the energy begins to change from the rich incubation period of deep Winter into the first light of Spring. The earth begins to move and the Kundalini begins to rise, bringing forth that spark of inspiration, that essence of life force to inspire our creations. Here we can use the inner wisdom gained during our deep winter months and bring it into the light now, into the active part of the year. The link with the inner worlds and our intuition still remains strong, a perfect time for clairvoyance and visioning and planting those seeds of intentions, whilst also infusing it with the potent, emerging life force within us…

During this ceremony you will connect with the energies of Imbolc and how this vital life force is present within you. You will prepare inwardly, for the changes to come and plant the seeds of your visions and intentions, leaving them to germinate. You will let go of what no longer serves you, inviting in the new, initiating a new stage on your journey, creating the space for new growth to emerge.

In sacred space, guided and supported by me you will journey through Shamanic Trance Dance, using a blindfold, breath, rhythm and the nature of intention. Here you will have the opportunity to withdraw from your external environment and dance with the deeper aspects of your being for strength, wisdom, energy, healing and the reclamation of personal power. 

To assist in fully grounding after the ceremony and dance we will share a drink and some snacks together. Please feel free to remain in your own energy and however that’s flowing for you. Some may feel you want to talk and share, others may want to remain in silence and just be, within their own journey unfolding. All is beautiful and perfect and it’s important to honour your own and other peoples energy and process.

Please bring with you a cushion and wear comfortable clothing, possibly layers so you can remove layers if you wish. Also bring a candle and anything you would like to energise on the altar. Don’t worry if you forget your candle, I will have plenty of tea lights.

I look forward to sharing the love and joy of this Imbolc journey with you.

In love and light

Vicky
