Invitation
Mina and Destination Namaste invite women to join a transformational dance retreat on the magical island of Corsica.
If you feel there’s something missing in the embodiment of your feminine energy, creativity, self-love and if you are ready to step into your own fullest self that is balanced, empowered, free and happy within mind body & soul this retreat is for you.
Your feminine power is beyond your physical looks. It is an infinite source which lies within your feminine qualities of receptivity, connection, creativity, allowance, self-love and abundance. This retreat is not about learning something new, but rather remembering who you truly are. Tuning into your feminine essence will not just transform your understanding of femininity, but will allow you to step into your greatest possible self too. Women of all ages, backgrounds and dance experience are welcome.


Benefits
This retreat will enable you to find a deeper connection with yourself as well as Mother Nature. You will feel more grounded and confident within your body, balanced within your heart and mind, and in touch with your higher self and feminine essence. You will learn tools to awaken your inner feminine wisdom through dance, rituals and embodiment practices to take with you into your daily life. You will tap into the feminine body & womb wisdom, release any physical, mental, emotional blockages around your femininity, sensuality, sexuality and creativity. You will radiate from inside out, fully embracing your inner feminine essence at the core of your being.

About Mina
Mina is from Turkey and a feminine embodiment coach, dance instructor and performer. She embraces that as humans, women and men, we carry the infinite knowledge and wisdom of Divine Feminine energy within each one of us. Nature/Our body is our temple and the more we connect with nature/our body the more we tap into our fully embodied self, which radiates and manifests from the inside out, in harmony with nature, authentic and free.
Leaving her corporate job in Istanbul, she travelled to Thailand in 2012 to study yoga and meditation. During her studies she reconnected back to her ancestral roots through belly dancing, as well as taking inspiration from her Hatha yoga, meditation and tantric feminine practices. Mina discovered that the innate movement of belly dancing allowed her to express herself more naturally, even without any formal training. She unearthed the wisdom within her body and this methodology is her most precious gift that she wants to share with women.
Mina has been connecting with others primarily through nature and the elements, channelling her authentic femininity through dance. She is also passionate about creating beauty with design and supporting feminine creativity through her signature clothing line.
Mina invites you to remember who you are by going to the core of your being.
