  • The Christine Center W8303 Mann Road Willard, WI, 54493 United States (map)

Does the fast pace and demands of modern life leave you exhausted, with little left to give?

Do you long for space and time to

S L O W down?

Would you welcome a weekend of rest and connection, where everything is taken care of for you?

Retreat with us! The Christine Center and Certified Open Floor International (OFI) Teachers, Teresa Reid + Cori Hildebrandt, invite you to gather with other like-minded souls during the depths of midwinter- a time of potent pause – to take a break from your everyday routine- to listen to your body- to sense your inner knowing- to tap into currents of inspiration- to resource yourself.

This thoughtfully curated, all-inclusive retreat is anchored in the teachings of the resource-based, mindful movement practices of Open Floor International. From writing to dance parties, guided movement to time in nature, spacious time alone to co-resting opportunities, there’s a little something for everyone and every part of your being. Music supports our practice.We welcome everyBODY ages 18+ for this immersive weekend, where each participant is valued and encouraged to contribute their own insights and unique gifts, rather than solely absorbing what we offer, to co-create a memorable experience for everyone.

  • 5 curated Open Floor International explorations/sessions: meditation, dance movement, nature, art, writing.

  • Time to rest, refresh, revitalize alone or together.

  • 5 homemade vegetarian meals (Friday dinner through Sunday lunch) made with fresh, local ingredients (GF, vegan, and diary-free diets can be accommodated with notice).

  • A variety of lodging options to meet your comfort: singles, shared, rustic hermitages to modern cabins.

PRICE: $454-680 USD based on selected accommodation. Various options.
