the Facilitator Retreat
Master the Art of Facilitation— From the Inside Out.
Step beyond technique and into true embodiment. Through speaking workshops, musicality, and deep inquiry, this retreat will transform the way you teach, lead, and hold space.
October 3 – 6
What Makes This Retreat Different?
Facilitation isn’t just about holding space—it’s about how you show up in it. And that’s where we do things differently.
This retreat was born from the combined expertise of Ashley and Lexi, two facilitators with distinct but deeply aligned approaches. Ashley brings years of experience in movement, embodiment, and energetic expansion, guiding individuals to trust their bodies and lead with presence. Lexi, with over a decade in somatic healing, trauma resolution, and expressive arts, empowers people to reclaim their voice and embody their most authentic self.
Together, we’ve designed a retreat that goes beyond technique—one that merges facilitation, creativity, and deep self-inquiry so that you don’t just learn how to lead, but actually feel what it means to facilitate from the inside out. This is where your work meets your essence, and where your voice becomes unshakable.
About Us
Meet Your Facilitators
Between us, we’ve spent decades in the world of movement and facilitation—witnessing firsthand the evolution of the industry, the power of self-expression, and the importance of leading with authenticity. Lexi, with 10 years in the fitness industry, has taught everything from Pilates and barre to kickboxing, working in some of Southern California’s most recognized boutique studios. Ashley, a lifelong mover and trained dancer, has been in her body since she was 3, weaving her artistry into yoga and embodiment practices for over 5 years.
With backgrounds in business, somatics, and soulful facilitation, we’ve each built successful businesses that support women worldwide in stepping into their fullest expression. Now, we’re coming together to bring you THE FACILITATOR RETREAT—a space where movement meets mastery and where your work becomes a true extension of you.
Sound familiar?
Does This Sound Like You?
You’ve mastered the movements, the cues, the flow—but something still feels off.
You can teach a great class, but you want to lead an unforgettable experience.
You’re craving more creativity, confidence, and ease in the way you facilitate.
You love what you do, but sometimes feel like you’re just going through the motions.
You know there’s a deeper layer to your work, but you’re unsure how to access it.
You’re fresh out of teacher training and want to feel fully prepared to step into this space with confidence.
If you’re nodding along, then you already know—you belong here.
A Weekend of Embodied Exploration & Mastery
Facilitation isn’t just about what you teach—it’s about how you express, embody, and energetically hold space. Over four days, we’ll guide you through a powerful blend of movement, deep inquiry, and creative workshops, designed to unlock your presence, refine your voice, and transform the way you lead.
Each day is intentionally structured with two movement sessions and two workshops, with spacious integration time woven throughout. You’ll move between energetic expansion and deep self-inquiry, exploring everything from breathwork and musicality to confidence, polarity, and creative programming. By the end of this experience, you won’t just facilitate—you’ll channel, embody, and lead with undeniable presence.
