I am an artist. Why should I book a retreat for my community?
This is more than a gig — it’s a meaningful, high-impact experience for you and your dancers.Deepen roots with your community:
Spend a full week building trust, flow, and real connection with your students in a way that weekly classes and short events just can’t offer. This is high-volume training in an intimate, unforgettable setting that bonds people for life — and builds long-term loyalty.Connect with your long-distance followers in paradise:
Have admirers who love your work but live too far to train with you? Invite them to El Salvador for a vacation-meets-immersion experience. Whether you teach a class a week or run a full studio, retreats let you offer something premium and personal.Take the driver's seat — and the lion’s share:
You’re not one of 40 names on a flyer here. You’re the centerpiece. The experience is built around you — your vision, your flow, your schedule. Set your pricing, offer privates, keep your mornings slow and your nights full of rhythm. Stay longer, stress less, and enjoy a real break while doing what you love.This is your chance to step into your value, grow your impact, and get paid for the magic you really bring.Want to host?
