Our Intention

After working with women in many different capacities – both online and in-person – over the last six years, we were feeling deeply into how we can rise in our own leadership to provide the most comprehensive and valuable learning experience for the women hungry to work with us.

We’re thrilled to offer our Facilitator Training Program as an immersive and embodied 6-day experience in Costa Rica, May 17-22, 2022!

Our intention is to give you the FULL experience – where we will have ample time with partner practices, answering questions, providing 1:1 support, giving you the opportunity to shine and move through this process with clarity, to practice everything you're learning, and overall going deeper in this container together. So by the end of it, your tool belt of skills and understanding is stocked and ready to support you in making your impact!

The Vision & Opportunities:

2.jpg

The vision we hold for Sisters That Stray is expanding beyond what the two of us alone can carry... Another intention behind creating this program is to train a team of STS Facilitators who can rise up and support us in creating and facilitating new retreats & programs.

Once you graduate from the program, if we all feel like you’re a good fit to join the team, then you’ll be invited to join us on our future retreats as an official STS facilitator - all expenses paid (minus your flights). 

As an official STS Facilitator, you also have the opportunity to work with us behind the scenes through every step of the process leading up to the retreat. This can include community management, marketing & outreach, programming creation, event production and logistics, etc. 

You’ll also have the opportunity to work with us on creating, producing and facilitating new retreats and workshops, in Costa Rica or elsewhere. 

And, you’ll have the opportunity to share your offerings and be included as a part of the official retreat itinerary/programming (yoga, meditation, dance, etc.) 

Lastly, we also give our Facilitators free access to our online community, Sisters That Stray Collective.

The 3 Pillars Behind Sisters That Stray:

  • P O W E R

    Personal power. Self Worth. Managing your energy and emotions. Speaking your truth. Fully embodied in your truth. Self-knowledge.

  • P U R P O S E

  • P L E A S U R E

    Awaken the senses. Come into the body. Lay down your armor. Soften. Receive. Feel. Pleasure is the essence of our being. It is our birthright to feel good, ecstatic and aligned.

About The Location >>

Costa Rica holds a very special place in our hearts. We lived right here in Manuel Antonio from 2018-2019.

The gorgeous, world-renowned beaches of Manuel Antonio, where the ocean meets the jungle, are only minutes away. Manuel Antonio is also perched on top of a mountain, so the coastal views are breathtaking!

Téva Hotel & Retreat is a community space on 20 hectares of pristine jungle forest that offers hiking trails, permaculture food gardens, a jungle-view swimming pool, a top-rated Moroccan-Latin fusion restaurant featuring fresh, flavorful, plant-based cuisine, social spaces, a yoga deck in the jungle, a wealth of local knowledge, reliable high-speed internet, and opportunities to see abundant wildlife like scarlet macaws, toucans, and three species of monkeys, right from your window!

Testimonials From Our Attendees:

 
 

“I was stuck in the same cycles and couldn’t figure out how to fully integrate past traumas. I had issues connecting with myself. At the retreat, I recognized exactly where my abandonment issues were rooted from. My biggest breakthrough was when I realized I don’t have to be the “good girl.” I felt the freedom to just be myself and be accepted as that. I started seeing more confidence and leadership skills I never recognized in myself before.”

— Jenna, May 2021 Retreat

 

“I was able to leave behind stress and feel like the real me! This retreat left me with several insights that I can now integrate into my daily routine.”

— Lindsay, May 2021 Retreat

 

“I felt totally safe, welcome and appreciated in the group. I felt a deep connection with all of the women and related with many of their stories. I was extremely moved and touched throughout the circles of connecting as well as totally uninhibited and free in the other ceremonies! I loved and adored the movement at such a beautiful resort.”

— Emilee, February 2020 Retreat

 

“When I arrived, Manda & Meleah both greeted me at the front with so much love, I felt safe and at home. The space they held for everyone was incredible. I was free to be my complete self without judgement and to feel into all my emotions.”

— Christel, February 2020 Retreat

 

“This experience was more than I could have ever imagined. I entered with an open mind and gained healing into the depths of my soul that I didn’t know existed. I also gained a soul tribe of amazing people! So much love! 10/10 would recommend.”

— Brittany, May 2021 Retreat

 

“Before the retreat, I was struggling to fully relax during downtime, which led to a tank too empty to live my purpose. In the retreat, I learned how to more effectively use my recharge hours to pursue what really soothes and inspires me. I would recommend this retreat to anyone looking for a way to, well, RETREAT from the hustle, take a deep breath, and refocus on what lights their fire, warms their heart, and settles their soul.”

— Kathleen, May 2021 Retreat

 

“Coming to Costa Rica was one of the most life changing experiences thus far in my life. Everyone was just so... connected. It seemed magical to me. But truthfully my life changing experience didn’t happen until after I got home and really got to look back on all of it. A huge awakening started to happen. I started to become the woman I’d always dreamed of being. I was able to let go of the past instead of run from it.”

— Danielle, February 2020 Retreat
