Frequently Asked Questions:

Which airport should I fly into?

Humberto Heglado Airport (LIS) Airport, Lisbon! Our retreat center is conveniently located only half an hour from Lisbon and the airport.

What is the refund/cancellation policy?

The $500 USD deposit to secure your spot is non-refundable. The cancellation deadline will depend on which installment plan you choose and your first installment's billing date. Setting up your registration will involve signing a participant agreement and liability waiver. These documents will have your cancellation policy outline.

If I have an unforseen emergency come up that prevents me from attending the retreat, can I transfer my registration to a future retreat?

If you are unable to attend the retreat for any reason after securing your registration, we ask that you please give us a cancellation notice as soon as possible as there are limited spaces available (adhering to your cancellation policy). Completed payments made can not be transferred to a future retreat. You will still have full access to your certification training learning portal.

Are there any online versions of this retreat? I can't make it in-person but I would love to join a virtual training!

This hybrid retreat is the final Sensual Embodiment® certification training opportunity for the 2024/2025 season. Our next fully online sensual dance-focused certification program will not be until 2026.
