Rhythms of Nature
A Coastal Retreat for Women to Move, Rest and Explore
Vincentia, Jervis Bay
23 - 28 September, 2025
This week-long retreat is your chance to immerse yourself in nature, move with its rhythms, and connect—not just with the world around you, but with yourself and a community of like-minded women.
Imagine free dive snorkeling alongside whales as they migrate south, gazing at a sky full of stars with an astrophysicist, and explore Booderee National Park. Each day, you’ll practice yoga, enjoy nourishing plant-based meals, and have time to explore, read, or simply be—just steps from the white sand beaches of Jervis Bay.
It’s not always easy to find other women to explore with—to step outside your comfort zone and share in experiences that challenge, inspire, and empower. This retreat is a space where you don’t have to do it alone. With the support of a welcoming community, you’ll move, adventure, and reconnect—leaving with new friendships, lasting memories, and a deeper connection to nature and yourself.
EXPLORE, CONNECT AND STEP INTO EXPERIENCES THAT WILL LEAVE YOU FEELING CONNECTED AND INSPIRED.
Rhythms of Nature is an intimate six-day retreat designed to bring women together through shared experiences, movement, and adventure. Nestled on the breathtaking South Coast of New South Wales, this retreat offers the space to reconnect—with yourself, with nature, and with a supportive community of like-minded women.
Through curated experiences, nourishing meals, and yoga that strengthens and restores, you’ll find a deep sense of both adventure and balance. This is your opportunity to:
Swim with whales, seals and dolphins
Marvel at the night sky and let it ignite your sense of wonder
Dedicate time to move your body mindfully
Experience deep relaxation; and
Share in meaningful moments with a supportive group of women
Whether you’re an experienced yogi, an outdoor enthusiast, or stepping into something new, this retreat is designed for all women. There’s no need to be fearless—just open to the experience. Here, you can let go of expectations, be present, and create lasting memories in the company of women who inspire and uplift.
There’s something powerful about trying something new—floating in the vast ocean, gazing up at a sky full of stars, or moving your body in a way that feels both strong and free. Every experience on this retreat is designed to meet you where you are, with guidance and support along the way.
And while these moments of adventure and stillness are incredible on their own, they become even more meaningful when shared.
If you’re worried about coming alone, don’t be. Many women do—and by the end of the retreat, you’ll have shared experiences, deep conversations, and laughter with a group of women who will feel like lifelong friends. This is a space where you can step outside your comfort zone without pressure, surrounded by encouragement and support. However you choose to show up, you are welcome here.
A RETREAT FOR WOMEN TO EXPLORE NATURE AND TO SHARE IN MEANINGFUL EXPERIENCES WITH OTHER WOMEN.
EXPERIENCE THE UPLIFT OF ENERGY AND CONNECTION THAT NATURE INSPIRES.
Nature has a way of stripping back the noise, inviting you to soften, to breathe, and to simply be. As you sink into the rhythm of the ocean, the night sky, and the movement of your own body, you’ll rediscover a sense of ease that so often gets lost in the busyness of life.
This retreat isn’t just about what you’ll do—it’s about how you’ll feel. The uplift in energy that comes with stepping out of your comfort zone, the quiet contentment of deep rest, and the warmth of genuine connection with like-minded women. Moving your body, not for exercise but for joy, lifts your mood, and reminds you of the simple freedom of being present.
By the end of this retreat, you’ll carry home more than memories—you’ll take with you a renewed sense of self, a deep appreciation for the beauty around you, and the lasting impact of a community that supports and uplifts.

A WEEK THAT IS MORE THAN YOGA, MORE THAN MOVEMENT
Hi, I’m Morgan.
As a dedicated yoga teacher, my passion lies in helping women feel strong, capable, and connected—both on and off the mat. I believe movement is a powerful way to deepen our relationship with ourselves.
I’m a mother of two boys, a partner, a yoga teacher, and a registered nurse. But beyond that, I’m someone who loves adventure—exploring the outdoors, diving into the unknown, and experiencing the awe-inspiring beauty this world has to offer. I also know how easy it is to let those experiences pass by simply because you don’t have someone to share them with.
That’s why this retreat is about more than just movement—it’s about stepping into nature, pushing past hesitation, and experiencing something bigger than yourself, all within the support of a like-minded community. You’ll swim with whales, explore local bushland, gaze up at a sky full of stars, and discover just how strong and capable you truly are.
My goal is to support you in feeling empowered, adventurous, and deeply connected—to yourself, to nature, and to the women around you.
THE BEST EXPERIENCES ARE THOSE WE SHARE.
A RETREAT LIKE NO OTHER

BALANCE & PLAY WORKSHOP – REDISCOVER THE JOY OF MOVEMENT
A morning of exploration, where movement becomes play. This workshop invites you to train balance, mobility, strength, and coordination in a way that feels fun and freeing—rather than just another workout.
Through guided movement challenges, you’ll explore new ways of moving, build confidence in your body, and reconnect with the joy of play. Whether you’re rolling, balancing, or shifting through space, you’ll be strengthening and refining your movement without even realizing it.
Come curious, finish feeling energized, capable, and more connected to your body.
MORNING VINYASA – BREATHE, FLOW, AND ARRIVE
Each morning begins with a guided meditation, allowing you to land fully in the present moment. From there, we’ll move through a breath-centered Vinyasa practice, flowing mindfully to build strength, mobility, and a deep connection between breath and movement.
This practice is not about pushing harder but about moving with awareness—finding steadiness, ease, and flow as you transition through each posture. A grounding and intentional way to start the day, leaving you feeling centered, open, and connected.
PRANAYAMA – CONNECT WITH YOUR BREATH, CALM YOUR MIND
Discover the transformative power of your breath and how it can deepen your connection to self. Through daily guided breathing techniques, you’ll learn how to calm the mind, downregulate your nervous system, and cultivate a lasting sense of inner peace.
The practice of pranayama goes beyond the mat—its benefits extend into daily life, helping you manage stress, enhance mental clarity, and foster a deep sense of balance and tranquility that stays with you long after the retreat ends.
SOUND BATH – VIBRATE, RELEASE, AND SURRENDER
Experience the deeply restorative power of sound as the vibrations of crystal singing bowls wash over you, guiding you into profound relaxation and release.
Each evening, as part of your restorative practice, the soothing resonance of sound will help quiet the mind, regulate the nervous system, and invite a sense of deep surrender. Let the frequencies support you in letting go—melting away tension, restoring balance, and preparing you for restful sleep.
COMMUNITY – STRENGTH IN CONNECTION, EMPOWERED TOGETHER
Embrace the transformative power of community and forge deep connections with like-minded women. As you share in this experience, allow the collective energy and shared wisdom to inspire, uplift, and support you.
Nurture your sense of self in an environment where you can express freely, receive encouragement, and build lasting friendships. Together, we will create a profound sense of belonging and empowerment, reminding you of the strength found in connection.
EVENING YOGA – UNWIND, RESTORE, AND RESET
Each evening, after dinner, you’ll be guided through a gentle, grounding yoga practice, alternating between Yin and Restorative yoga. These deeply nourishing sessions are designed to soothe the nervous system, release tension, and prepare your body and mind for deep, restful sleep.
Yin yoga invites you to slow down, holding poses for longer to gently target deep connective tissues, improve flexibility, and encourage stillness. Restorative yoga uses props to fully support the body, allowing for complete relaxation and nervous system reset.
This is your time to unwind, breathe, and let go, so you can wake up feeling refreshed and revitalized each morning.
HOLDING SPACE FOR WOMEN – REJUVENATE, REFLECT, AND RECONNECT
In a world that often pulls us in every direction, it’s essential to have a space where you can simply be—a space to rest, reflect, and reconnect with yourself.
This retreat is that space. A supportive, nurturing environment where you are seen, heard, and valued. A place to step away from daily demands and immerse yourself in experiences that honor and empower you as a woman.
SELF MASSAGE – CONNECT WITH YOUR BODY, RELEASE TENSION
Embrace the power of touch and connect with yourself in a nurturing, healing way. Self-massage is a simple yet profound practice that helps release tension, improve circulation, and foster deep relaxation.
Incorporating this into your daily routine will not only enhance your physical well-being, but also cultivate greater body awareness, self-compassion, and a sense of inner peace that supports your overall wellness journey.
YOGA WORKSHOP – ADAPT, EXPLORE, AND EMBODY YOUR PRACTICE
Yoga has the incredible ability to meet you exactly where you are. This workshop is an opportunity to deepen your practice, refine your understanding of key poses, and explore adaptations that truly support your body and mind.
Whether you’re looking to gain confidence in specific postures, discover modifications that work for you, or simply reconnect with your practice in a new way, this session will provide the space to move, learn, and explore with intention.
At the end of this session you’ll feel more empowered, knowledgeable, and in tune with your body’s needs.
