Shakti Dance Retreat with Tanya Kozlova & Bridget Himes


We want You to experience:

The purity of living. 

The sense of connectedness. 

The depths of feeling. 

The gentle embrace of Mother Nature. The warmth of the human heart. 

Your magical True nature. 

We want to See you. We want to see you blossoming, living fearlessly, knowing and intentionally using your Power as a Creator. 

Come and Explore. Trust and See. Wonder and Receive. 

Be Alive! Meet Yourself, and be surprised by the ever growing knowing of how big and wonderful you are. Reflected through the eyes of your Sisters, you are ready to bloom. To be seen. Recognized and Loved. 

We want to See you. The World wants to see you in your fullness, it’s ready for your medicine. Come, let’s play, let’s be easy, let’s be silly, let’s forget all the nonsense that we’ve been taught and then Remember. Remember!  Move through, and celebrate! 

Let’s celebrate, sisters, how far we’ve come, and how exciting and promising the future! How can we continue to arrive?

Where are we going? Where do you want to go? 

How Big are your dreams???

We are curious, how the world will be affected by you living your wildest dreams…?! Let’s see her. 

Let’s dream bigger!

Let’s feel deeper. 

Let’s fall deeper in Trust. 


Rising in the middle of the jungle, we are sending an invitation to you from The Sanctuary. 

An invitation to experience the way your Shakti, your creative Life force, dances on the Earth. 

Let’s Dance!

Are you ready to prioritize a life of fulfillment and joy for yourself and your community? To be a beacon of light, to initiate, to lead, to share from overflowing cup?!

Let’s move towards Real intimacy. With ourselves. Awakening the senses that are meant to be our system of guides. Building the relationship with them, embracing the gifts of our sensual bodies, opening to the wisdom of what it is to be a Woman. A Woman who knows her boundaries, who owns her desires, her pleasure, who knows her value. Who operates with clarity and precision and initiated into the deep wisdom of her energetics-who is aware of her Passive Power not-to-act-but-attract the most magnificent, the most desirable things in her life. 

Easy. Effortlessly. Joyfully. 

It’s possible, oh, how possible it is! We are encouraging You to step into the life of your wildest dream!

We want to See you.

Carried in a safe and gentle container of Sisterhood, enveloped by the exquisite beauty inside the jungle, nourished by refined gourmet vegetarian cuisine that has evolved and matured inside the womb of nature by the Gaia Gourmet Chef, Naga Nath. Embracing the unique energetic potency of the Sanctuary at Two Rivers-that has been a portal of heightened awareness and infinite potential for thousands of people. These doors are opening for you now. 

Let the Earth and her rhythms inspire your body to soften, to open for healing and transformation, and experience a new vibrant quality of Life that you’re choosing to embody. 



The journey includes:

  • -Daily morning sadhana: variety of meditations, chants, pranayamas and body movement practices intending to harmonize your nerves system, building the resilience of physical and energetic bodies;

  • Nature-our main teacher! Deep listening. Deep attuning. Synchronizing with the  free flow of the rivers and waterfalls surrounding the property. Acknowledging and honoring our connection to Pachamama;

  • Group discussions and practices. People are everything. We’ll hold each other in our rawness and vulnerability. And in our Greatness too! Reflection. Sense of interconnectedness. Exposure. Share. Support. Inspiration.

  • -Art therapy sessions. Learning about the pace and directions that can be directed through your hands as a way to release, feel, and cultivate a relationship with the art already inside of you. We’ll experience our relationship with different textures, sounds, colors, ideas, and patterns. All in an effort to find/create a bridge between worlds. 

  • Gong sound healing journey. We will be guided in a deeply relaxed and meditative state, harmonizing our body systems to the optimal state of being. 

  • -Ecstatic dance + cacao ceremony; Exploring and expanding the heart space through intentional movement, music, and “the gift to shift,” the natural medicine of cacao. 

  • -One individual session of Spiritual bodywork with Tanya. Meeting you exactly where you are and moving to the states of clarity, ease, trust and Love for the Self. 

THE FOOD. 

  • -Nutrient dense and organic breakfast.

  • -Three course lunch centered around the principles of Ayurveda, refinement, harmonizing flavors, and an invitation to build your relationship with subtle flavors

  • -Warm dinner to aid in digestion.

All in effort to experience the flavors of reality through the 5 senses, sometimes even beyond the 5! All meals are vegetarian with Vegan and/or Gluten Free options.

Your Guides:

Tanya Kozlova is a passionate explorer of freedom, love and human potential…and how to have fun along the way!

Leaving her mother land 6 years ago with an intention to experience life more fully and see herself more clearly, she is still firmly on this path. During these years of travels in Central America, mainly located in the pristine nature of Costa Rica, she’s discovered a lot about high quality living… which includes maintaining your level of happiness.

Alternating between deeply contemplative jungle hermitage and community living, simple yet universal truths keep revealing themselves with dedicated self study through meditation, art, yoga, bodywork, Tantric practices, human relationships and Nature. She’s discovered an unlimited source of joy and freedom within and an understanding of interconnectedness. Her passive education through travels has also been enhanced by formal education with emphasis on yoga, energetics and sexuality through Lakshmi Rising Yoga School in Costa Rica and Transformational Facilitator Training in Inanitah-tantric community in Nicaragua.

Tanya is a genuine teacher of eternal truth. Her enthusiasm and trust in Life is contagious. She creates safe and trusting containers where you will be encouraged and supported on a way to discovery of your own Greatness.

Bridget Himes is an artist, yogi and alchemist who is currently the sous chef for Gaia Gourmet where she creates delicious and nourishing plant-based cuisine for yoga retreats in Costa Rica and Europe. She is a natural and caring teacher who holds magical sacred and safe space for growth and liberation.
