Tantra, Dance & Plant Medicine Retreat in Sunny Portugal
With Sanshine and Alai
July 26 - August 1, 2026
Step into a world where time holds no power and the calling of your heart is the only compass you need to follow. This retreat in the lush AYA valley is an invitation to leave the noise of daily life behind and immerse yourself in a deep journey of self discovery and liberation. Through the potent combination of Tantra and dance and the optional depth of plant medicine we create a space where you remember what it truly means to be alive. We begin the week by building a strong foundation of safety and trust so that every participant feels brave enough to surrender completely to the flow of the experience.
The heart of this event is the careful progression toward an optional ceremony on the banks of the river where nature itself stands as witness to your inner transformation. Whether you choose the expansion offered by the sacred mushroom or prefer to journey through breath and movement alone everything is welcome and guided with equal love. After this peak the program transitions into an organic process of integration and expression where the wisdom of Sanshine leads the group through a landscape of healing sessions. From the ecstasy on the dance floor to the intimate softness of a cuddle puddle and from profound family constellations to the liberating circle of unshame every moment is an opportunity for further growth.
This event is intended for both couples and singles who long for an authentic connection with themselves and the world around them. Within the sanctuary of our bell tents and the raw beauty of the Portuguese wilderness we offer you the tools to break through blockages and embrace your own power once again. We teach you to feel your boundaries and communicate them clearly so that you can explore in total freedom what it means to love and be loved. Join us in the AYA valley for a week full of souliciousness and return home with a renewed sense of joy and a soul that shines brighter than ever before.
