A Sacred Dance Retreat
February 19th – 24th, 2025
Do you feel the pull?
The whisper that says it’s time to finally step into the fullness of your power?
It’s time to stop playing small.
You’re ready now.
a 5-day transformative retreat in the heart of Mexico, where hip hop dance and soulful connection are the catalyst to work your edges so you can step into your true power.
This retreat is your invitation to peel back the layers, shatter the illusions, and dance your way into the fullest expression of your soul.
Then you’d feel confident, powerful, relaxed, and fully expressed. But here’s the truth: You get to become brave, confident, and powerful now. You get to choose it! And from that place you create your life.
This retreat is not about waiting for the right time; it’s about claiming your time now. It’s about loving who you are and stepping into the human you’re destined to be.
“Having been a student of some of Briana’s courses before, I went into the experience with confidence and trust. Little did I know what huge understatements those would be. The container and space that was created for our experience was beyond anything I could have expected. Briana provided so much intentionality, heaps of love and support, and deep wisdom woven throughout the weekend. In my opinion it is one of the most loving things you can choose to do for yourself and for others. I am deeply grateful to Briana for facilitating and creating an experience that has changed my perspective in unimaginable ways.”
– Sarah Gausewitz
WE BELIEVE THAT MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE, and hip hop dance is a gateway to exploring the edges of our power – a profound ritual of embodiment and transformation.
This isn’t just about learning steps- Ayla with her gift for tuning into the energy of each person in the room, creates a dance experience that’s about . . .
In this retreat, hip hop becomes a dynamic form of self-expression, where you shed old narratives and connect deeply with your body and soul. As you move to the beat, you’ll feel a powerful shift in your energy—self-doubt dissolves, stagnant emotions release, and you ground into your truth.
You don’t need to be a seasoned dancer. All you need is the willingness to show up, to feel, to move, and to let your body lead you back to your truth.
At the core of this retreat lies the most powerful force you can cultivate: self-love.
Self-love isn’t just a buzzword – it’s the foundation for a meaningful and magical life. It’s the compass that guides every decision, every relationship, and every dream you dare to pursue. When you love yourself deeply, you reclaim your power. You become unshakeable, unstoppable, and unapologetically you.
Without self-love, you’re left chasing approval, validation, and success outside of yourself – always feeling that something is missing. But when you root yourself in self-love, you anchor into your true power, and everything else begins to align. Your relationships transform, your confidence soars, and your life becomes a reflection of the love you hold for yourself.
This retreat is your sacred space to cultivate that love. Through dance, meditation, energy work, and powerful ceremonies, you’ll deepen your connection with the heart of your power—your self-love.
What Awaits You:
Why You Must Join Us:
This retreat is for the one who is done with waiting. It’s for the one who knows there’s more to life than what they’ve been living. It’s for the one who is ready to claim their power, their joy, and their life without apology.
You don’t need to be anything other than what you already are. You just need to be ready to say yes to yourself.
What’s Included:
“Thank you for creating such a magical container every single day, every single week, every single class. Each one feels incredbile. I’m literally obsessed.”

“As we are at the end of this, I was asking myself, what is this feeling that I’m feeling at the end of this weekend? And I realized I’m actually happy. My mind is quiet and I think I’ve been kind of going through the motions for many, many years. I feel like I’ve come back home to myself. ”
– Brigitte Amsberry
“I have never done anything like this before!! I am so thrilled, exicted and grateful to be surrounded by and included with such AMAZING WOMEN doing AMAZING THINGS. I have never felt like a badass before but with this group, I actually do.”
– Kelly Marie
“Thank you so much for a wonderful weekend. This was the best space and the most wonderful space for a journey. It was truly amazing. Thank you Briana and your family and everyone else that’s involved in this. You are rock stars.”

“Ayla is one of the most brilliant dancers, choreographers, and teachers I have ever met. She deftly shepherds her students past what they think is possible with joy and confidence. Stunning as this is, it is not even the most wonderful thing about dancing with her. On top of all her great qualities, Ayla is a thousand watt generator of spirit. I am unquestionably a better dancer because of her, but also a more authentic person. Run, don’t walk to wherever she is teaching, you’ll be so grateful you did.”

“That dance class gave me LIFE. My soul needed that badly. Thank you for being YOU. So light, free, fun, and also keeping it real with how hard life can be sometimes. So fun and healing to be dancing with you. There were so many times I thought to myself ‘there I am!!’ during class. You are a gift.”
