The REWILDED Woman

Only 3 places remain for The REWILDED Woman |18–22 Sept 2026. Early Bird pricing (€550) is still available for 1 of those spots. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

This retreat is for you if…
— You are a woman who is ready to come home to herself
— to her body, her wisdom, and her wholeness
— You want to learn to work with your body rather than against it, listening to what it’s been trying to tell you
— You’re ready to step into your power and begin dreaming your life into being
— You crave rest — real, deep rest
— and a space where you can simply be, held exactly as you are — You want to be in the company of women, in a circle where every part of you is welcome
— You feel the call to reconnect with your natural rhythms and come back to the wild, whole woman you have always been

Every woman is welcome here; whatever season of life you’re in, whatever you’re carrying, whatever your experience of yoga or movement. You don’t need to fix anything to come. You just need to come.

About the Retreat

The REWILDED Woman Retreat is an invitation home… to yourself. Not to the version of you that performs, produces, and keeps pushing forward. But to the woman underneath. The one who is whole, wild, and already here.

You came into the world whole. Somewhere along the way, you learned to quiet parts of yourself, the parts that didn’t fit, that were too much, or not enough. This retreat is where you remember that wholeness never left. It’s still there. It’s now.

Over four days in the French countryside, we use the seasons as our map, not as a schedule, but as a language. Autumn teaches you how to arrive and be present. Winter invites you inward, to soften and meet yourself with tenderness. Spring awakens possibility and play. Summer is pure celebration. Each season flows into the next, offering a rhythm of exploration, reflection, and celebration, helping you to reconnect with your natural cycles and your own unique flow.

Through somatic practices, you’ll learn to listen to your body again, not as something to fix or control, but as communication. Your sensations, your emotions, your impulses, they’re all messages. When you learn to work with them instead of against them, everything shifts.

This is for women who are tired of the fight. Women who crave real rest, not just a break from life, but a break into life. Women who want to remember what it feels like to be held, to belong, to be enough, exactly as you are. Women ready to step into their power, to dream boldly, and to know that their unique journey has real power.

Whether you’ve never done yoga, whether you’re carrying grief, joy, confusion, or clarity… you belong here. There’s no performance. No fixing required. Just presence, softness, and the quiet work of coming home.

Why I Created These Retreats

I created these retreats because I believe women hold a deep, sacred power. When we come together with intention, we create something truly transformative, a space to be seen, supported, and uplifted. These retreats are a space where women can simply be.
No expectations. No performance. Just presence, softness, and truth.


The Flow

Please note that this programme may change — activities may be altered slightly to allow for space and fluidity within the retreat.

Welcome dinner, warm conversation, and the quiet magic of women gathering for the first time

A Gentle Presence

Settling into stillness, honouring what is already here

Morning

Morning vinyasa flow and meditation — a soft, unhurried practice to ground your body and quieten your mind as the day begins

Breakfast

Mid-morning

Opening ceremony — reflections, intention setting, and a sacred space to arrive fully. What have you brought with you? What are you ready to lay down?

Lunch

Lunch

Afternoon

Rest, reflect, restore. This afternoon is entirely yours — sleep, journal, float in the pool, or simply do nothing at all

Late afternoon

Cacao ceremony and women’s circle — a warm, held space for emotional integration, deep sharing, and the kind of connection that only happens when women gather with intention

Dinner

Candlelit yin yoga — long, surrendered holds to release what the day has loosened. Rest well.

Mid-morning

Vision boarding and manifestation — meeting your future self through guided meditation, setting intentions and affirmations for the season ahead. What is she calling you toward?

Early evening

Yoga nidra for integration — rest after a full and beautiful day

Dinner

Evening

After practice

Cold plunge to seal the practice and greet the final morning with full presence (Optional)

Light lunch together

Midday

Space to integrate, express gratitude, and prepare to carry this home. You leave different from how you arrived — softer, wilder, more yourself.

Please note that this programme may change — activities may be altered slightly to allow for space and fluidity within the retreat.


Testimonials

Here’s what women who have joined me said:

“Emma created a true atmosphere of magic. From the very first meditation session, I was able to create an intention that will guide me for the next few years, if not for life. The following 2 days were spent eating delicious food, connect with my soul and connecting with the soul’s of all the women there. I feel more connected that ever to my purpose. Emma is an excellent guide for a spiritual journey.”

Natalie (previous participant)

“The location and the thoughtful programme provides a tranquil base for a wonderful and rejuvenating weekend. Emma is truly skilled at drawing out from the group, encouraging sharing and creating a strong sense of community. I would highly recommend for any age or experience at yoga and mediation (I had none and enjoyed it all)”

Wendy (previous participant)


Where You’ll Stay

The retreat takes place in the French countryside, just outside Lyon, easily accessible from Lyon Airport or Sain-Bel train station (pick-ups can be arranged from Sain-Bel if needed).

Please note:

  • Travel from Lyon airport takes approximately 1.5 hours by public transport or 1 hour by taxi (taxis usually cost around €150 each way).
  • We recommend planning your flights and transport carefully to ensure a smooth arrival.

You’ll stay in a simple, charming guesthouse surrounded by nature, with spaces to rest, reflect, and connect:

  • Yoga and meditation room for your daily practices
  • Refreshing pool to relax and soak in the surroundings
  • Riverside yoga and meditation platform for quiet reflection
  • Sun-filled courtyard to enjoy a book, journal, or simply breathe

This is a simple, soulful space, the magic is in the nature, the connection, and the community, not the thread count.

Your Facilitators

Emma Kelly

I am a qualified Vinyasa and Hatha yoga teacher, as well as a Pilates instructor, and a practicing physiotherapist with over 10 years of experience in the wellness industry. I am also a trained somatic practitioner, with additional study in breathwork and integrative trauma therapy.

This is my second year running retreats, and last year it was such a joy and honour to host 16 beautiful souls. I am deeply passionate about creating spaces where people can connect more fully with their story, their body, and their inner wisdom. My approach blends movement, somatic practices, and mindfulness to support presence, self-reflection, and embodied connection, allowing each participant to feel seen, held, and nourished.

Véronique Giard

Practitioner of gentle, natural relaxation, I use ancient techniques drawn from Tibetan Buddhism, sound therapy, and Tibetan medicine.

I first encountered Tibetan Buddhism and lived in a monastery to deepen my meditation practice. I spent five and a half years there, including three years in meditation retreat. To support inner reflection, one of the conditions of this retreat is being closed off from the outside world.

After this experience, I trained in traditional Tibetan massage and then continued my studies in Tibetan medicine.

The singing bowls naturally came into my practice, later complemented by other instruments.

For the past 14 years, I have had the joy of offering both individual and group sessions.
