      About this trip

      Sometimes we just need a little adventure… This retreat aims to take you out of your life for a few days to give you a full body and mind reset. Our adventuring will take us out into nature as well as inwards, towards our fully embodied center. We will explore our outer and inner landscapes, our bodies, mind and spirits. Our intention is to provide a space to know and nourish yourself, supporting your strength, clarity and vision for the months ahead.

      What You'll Experience

      Movement and Integration Sessions

      Erika and Vanessa will colead sessions integrating movement with NUSHU Group, allowing us to create connections and unlock wisdom and insight in our bodies, hearts and minds.


      Hiking

      There is no better way to connect to ourselves than to be out in nature. We will explore the beautiful Shawangunk mountains and bathe in the healing power of nature. We want your hiking experience to feel supportive to what you need at the moment- whether that is challenge or peacefulness. You will be able to opt into either a fast or a gentle pace.


      Climbing

      Rock climbing is an optional added experience to this retreat. If you choose to add this experience, plan on an early morning departure on Wednesday, April 19th. We will meet in New Paltz, New York, which is a 90-minute drive from New York City. NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY.


      Community

      NUSHU brings together people of depth, heart, curiosity and compassion through intentional programming and careful curation. Meet the community of open hearted, kind and intelligent women you’ve been craving.


      Nourishment

      Our meals are designed to nourish all parts of ourselves. Healthy and delicious, we aim to make you feel fully nourished and comforted. We are of course happy to accommodate any dietary restrictions, and you will have a chance to indicate your preferences when you register.

      This Is For You If...

      • You want to find and meet a community of like-minded women in an intentional space.  You have friends, but somehow they don’t relate to the new YOU that you are starting to discover.
      • You’re always giving to others and you know, deep down, that you MUST give to yourself if you’re going to continue being there for those you love.
      • You know that you need more nature in your life, but somehow life keeps getting in the way of you planning something for yourself.
      • You’re feeling a little bit, well, blah. You know your life wasn’t supposed to just be putting one foot in front of the other.
      • You’re desperate to get away, but one week retreats in foreign countries aren’t in the cards for you right now.
      • You want to try rock climbing, but it just seems SO SCARY and too complicated to plan alone. We promise, you can do it! We will make it safe, accessible and you will not regret having tried it. You will never feel more alive.

      Reviews

      I am sitting with a massive smile a gratitude as I write this review. I have never been on a trip that made me feel so filled up and proud of myself. Everyone was so encouraging, supportive and the atmosphere that was created by NUSHU was absolutely magical and unique. The accommodations were great and the food was so fresh, healthy and every meal ended in a conversation begging for for the recipes. The surf instructors pushed me out of the comfort zone while making me feel so secure...my wins were their wins and the wisdoms they whispered will be with me for a lifetime. NUSHU made all the travel seamless and there were fun surprises everyday. As always, the most important aspect is how you feel.... and looking back now, I can tell you I feel amazing; I made lifetime friends and I will not hesitate to travel with NUSHU again.

      This trip exceeded all expectations! NUSHU magic at its finest through soulful connection with strangers who are now sisters, adventurously pushing one's limits to deepen the connection to self and others and pure JOY through laughter and self-nourishment. I would do it again in an instant and can't wait to see what NUSHU offers next.
      By Courtney E for NUSHU Surf Retreat on 20 Feb, 2023
      Absolutely perfect balance of surfing, yoga, and good conversations. The food was so nourishing and the women so inspiring. I’d go back tomorrow if I could!
