WILD BLOOMING
Women’s Sacred awakening retreat
Costa Rica
April 7th - 13th, 2025
Return to your Deep Feminine Nature
In Spring, the Earth stirs under our feet and the flowers blossom in a riot of colors in the warm sun. Are you yearning to bloom into your own radiant self this year? In that precious aching, your awakening begins …
WILD BLOOMING is a 6 day adventure deep into your feminine heart where you discover the wonderful gifts you have lying dormant inside. Awaken your magic, your power & your beauty through guided dance and song.
Like a garden blossoming under the tender care of its gardener, your journey of awakening to the feminine starts with nurturing self-love. When we nourish our bodies with healthy food, dance on the earth, turn on our life force, and sing with the Goddess by the river, we are returning to that love.
Our retreat is at Home Farm, in Central Costa Rica. The untouched lands of the sanctuary are a unique emanation of the Goddess, she is alive and wild in the jungle, waterfalls and oceans. Home Farm offers us a special way to be be very close to nature and her elements. An ancient tree - La Abuela - overlooks this pristine land, and her guardians grow the food that nourishes us. The property has a natural river and waterfall, allowing an intimate connection with pristine flowing water.
In the wise and loving hands of Mother Nature, guided by Tantric Dance teacher Josie Keys and Divine voice mentor Kavita Kat MacMillan, you will unfurl your wings again, re-connecting with your magnificent, sacred self.

Retreat Facilitators
is a teacher of Divine Feminine Embodiment and Igniter of the Flame of Mary Magdalene. She is deeply engaged in the rising wave of Divine Feminine energy as it re-emerges on the Earth plane. She is passionate about sharing the knowledge of the great mystery of the Goddess, and expand the understanding of the embodiment of the divine feminine in each of our bodies. The divine masculine (that is so very needed now) cannot come forth until the Divine Feminine is firmly anchored here. Many awakening women feel this instinctively.
Through the practice of Sacred Tantric Dance, Josie helps shift the old paradigm of a shut down disconnected feminine, and grounds into our bodies the empowered and fertile expressions of God/Goddess that we are meant to be—beautiful manifestations of life force in human form.
Josie started on the devotional path in Los Angeles in 1999, when she was guided to meet Ammachi the hugging saint, Sri Param, a visiting Tantric Priest and a Suzanne Shakti Copeland who became her Tantric Belly Dance teacher - all in the same year. She was a student of all three for over a decade, and became a lineage holder of the dance.
A natural seeker, Josie grew up in Australia, has traveled all over the world and currently resides in Venice, California. She has been teaching nationally and internationally since 2012. Since 2015, she has brought forward profound workshop experiences that activate the divine selves of each participant by engaging with pleasure, emotional intimacy and love, through simple Tantric practices.
She is passionate about the urgent and fundamental need that women have to consciously activate the Divine Feminine in bodies and in our lives. This is just as essential for us, as it is for the ground on which we kneel and kiss - our beloved planet Earth that we call home.

The Divine Feminine is a manifestation of feminine energy in the universe. It is a sacred power source that is both integral to the nature of the cosmos, as well as inherent in ourselves.
When we activate and embrace our divine feminine nature, life itself becomes far more miraculous and mysterious than we could have ever imagined…
