Dance Meets Tantra welcomes you to the first
immersive retreat of its kind - EMBRACE

Join our 5-day immersive portal where we practice the art of embracing all of our humanity and explore what it means for us to be fully alive through connection, movement, and mutual respect.

Dance Meets Tantra is a space of daring attunement - we will dance at the edges of our comfort zones without leaving any parts behind.
If you have hesitations and/or anxieties, they are all welcome here.

A Deeply Nourishing, Connected & Alive Celebration Of Life

At Embrace, we practice welcoming the full extent of our humanity.

We discover our sensuality through our authenticity.
We discover our love through our boundaries.
At Embrace, we leave no parts behind.

Guest DJ’s

-:-: • Saucy Feather • :-:-

𓆃 Light as a feather yet dripping in flavor, she is here to take you on a journey of sound — from the root to the crown, high in the sky and back down to the ground.

𓆃 She weaves frequencies with the intention to inspire embodiment, a sonic invitation to drop into presence and feel the full-spectrum of your expression.

𓆃 Her sets are a blend of deep bass beats balanced by feminine vocals, with splashes of sensuality, playfulness, sacred, and sass.

𓆃 She sources sounds from all over the world, bridging cultures and genres to curate a flight of the finest vibrations. Come taste her flavors for yourself as she lands on a dance floor near you!

Anaia weaves magic on the dance floor infusing elements from her travels in South East Asia, Central America & the jungles of Hawaii. Her sets are deep and juicy, woven with cohesive attunement to support your nervous system to unwind and your body to open to its organic intelligence. She welcomes you to be with whatever is present, knowing what arises in your dance is the medicine and alchemy that is needed in the moment.

A Note on "Tantra"

For us - Tantra is the practice and art of being fully alive. Our intention with Dance Meets Tantra is to support people in coming into greater love, respect and relationship with themselves, each other, and the Earth. We believe that dance, Eros and tantra are fundamental aspects of being alive, empowered, and creative - so we invite various explorations in support of liberating our creativity and life force.

About the Venue

The “Ranch” is on 40 acres filled with sheer rock walls, tumbling boulder fields, quiet forest, and mountain meadows. Including 4 alpacas, 2 ranch dogs, barn cats and regular visits from local wildlife. There is a main lodge that consists of 1 private room, 1 shared room, 2 1/2 bathrooms, large kitchen, dining area and main space. There is a second unit that consists of 1 private room, 1 shared room and a larger dorm style room that has 3 bunk beds (6 beds total), 1 full bathroom, kitchen and smaller main space. Two stand alone cabins on the property (1 private and 1 shared). The mountain meadow will offer plenty of potential camping spaces. Campers will need to be conscious of the small potential for a black bear and even smaller potential for a bob cat or mountain lion. With this kind of Colorado wildlife, campers will need to keep food out of their tent, and instead either place it into one of the main spaces, in a car or hanging in a tree. Wildlife to expect can be Mule Deer, Elk, Turkeys and more.

Our group and event space is in a beautifully refurnished Chapel that has a tall A frame ceiling, large open dance space where we will have a full sound system with live DJing every day. There will be extra porta potty bathrooms outside the Chapel.

Just 10 minutes to Downtown Evergreen, 50 minutes to Downtown Denver, 55 minutes from Boulder, and just over an hour to Denver International Airport.
