Body Movement Experience

Reflect, release, renew: embark on a transformative journey with Body Movement Experience. You will make connections with people from around the world, connect with your body through diverse movement practices and elements, engage your senses, and immerse yourself in the natural beauty of Zanzibar/ Tanzania.

Week 1: Set in the vibrant coastal city of Dar es Salaam. Mornings begin with open and energising movement sessions — from traditional Tanzanian music and dance to boxing, beach yoga, and live drumming — with local artists joining to create space for cultural exchange. Afternoons are dedicated to exploring the area, including visits to local markets, villages, beaches, , boat trips to islands. In the evenings, we’ll experience the city’s lively arts and social scene, from gallery events and live music to dance performances and comedy nights, curated by our local host Careen Michaels.

There will also be free time throughout the week, as well as the option to join a safari day trip.

Week 2: Nestled in the enchanting locale of Nungwi, Zanzibar, the retreat experience unfolds at Bukoba Villas, a family-owned villa named after the Haya tribe, residents of Bukoba in North West Tanzania. This connection to the land adds a personal and cultural touch to the retreat. With Tanzanian origins and a travel history spanning over 30 countries, Dorine strives to offer guests an authentic experience of Zanzibar/Tanzania, working solely with the local community. 

Every facet of your experience is infused with the heart and soul of Tanzania/Zanzibar, ensuring a meaningful and immersive retreat that goes beyond the physical, resonating with the essence of the region. Karibuni!
