The Art of Somatic Reconnection

A Sanctuary for Deep Transformation

Designed around the wisdom of the hips and body intelligence, this retreat offers a safe, intimate, and women-only container to unwind chronic tension and stress. Through somatic movement, sound, and fire release rituals, you’ll nourish your soul, reconnect with your creativity, and leave feeling whole again.
MEET YOUR FACILITATOR

María José — The Heart Behind Zia Oma

Zia Oma grew from my own journey back to my body, my softness, and a deeper sense of inner safety.

With over 550 hours of yoga and meditation training in Bali and India—including 500 hours completed through Yoga Alliance-recognized schools and continuing education providers—I weave Yin Yoga, Yoga Nidra, mindful movement, meditation, and trauma-informed somatic practices into intimate, thoughtfully held experiences.

My intention is not to help you become someone new, but to create a space where you can slow down, listen within, and gently return to who you already are.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Terms & Booking Policies

We want you to feel fully informed and supported before reserving your place. Please review our payment terms, cancellation policies, and retreat guidelines below.

Your reservation is confirmed once:

  • Your accommodation deposit has been paid directly through the venue’s website.
  • Your retreat balance has been paid to Zia Oma.

Both payments are required to secure your place. The retreat balance is due in full at the time of booking. If you reserve your place within 30 days of the retreat, full payment is required immediately.

More than 30 days before the retreat: You will receive a full refund of your retreat payment (excluding payment processing fees, if applicable). Please note that the accommodation deposit is managed directly by the venue and follows their own cancellation policy.

Less than 30 days before the retreat: Retreat payments are non-refundable. As this is a small and intimate retreat, your reservation prevents another participant from joining and many venue costs have already been committed. If you are unable to attend, you are welcome to transfer your booking to another woman, subject to prior approval.

In the unlikely event that Zia Oma cancels the retreat, you will receive a full refund of all payments made directly to Zia Oma. Refunds for accommodation deposits will be handled directly by the venue according to their own cancellation policy.

  • Women-Only: This retreat is open to women only.
  • Travel Insurance: Participants are responsible for arranging their own travel insurance.
  • Health & Dietary Needs: Please inform us in advance of any injuries, medical conditions, allergies or special dietary requirements so we can support you as best as possible.

Thank you for understanding and supporting the intimate nature of this retreat. Your commitment helps create a safe and intentional space for everyone.
