Practitioners Retreat | Rising Earth Healing Arts Sanctuary, Wappingers Falls, NY

 A warm, co-created weekend to refresh foundational skills, deepen advanced ones, and reconnect with sister womb tenders.

About the Retreat

  • In person Practitioners Retreat October 24–26, 2025.

This weekend is for any practitioner of Maya Abdominal Therapy/ Arvigo Therapy/ Abdominal Therapist who feels the call to return to your hands, your body, your community, and the roots of this practice.

You’re invited to step into a co-created space of remembering and refinement. We’ll revisit core techniques, explore advanced practices, complimentary practices like moxa and navel cupping, and spend unhurried time together in circle and on the table. There’s no formal hierarchy, just support, shared learning, and the kind of connection that only happens in real life.

This gathering is facilitated by practitioner of 18 years, Lisa Kelly, held at the welcoming Rising Earth Healing Arts Sanctuary, created and tended by Practitioner Christine Jude Winus.

What to Expect

  • Hands-on review of foundational techniques
  • Practice time with feedback and peer exchange.
