Creative Movement from Essence
“Through the looking glass of our own heart mirror, into the dance of the soul…”
 Join
movement and performance artist Zuleikha for a women’s movement retreat
in the beautiful northern coast of Scotland. A time for
exploration and introspection
The northern coast of Scotland,
where the light is clear and acts as an inspiration, is a perfect place
to gather to explore the nature of essence. The mirror of nature
helps to reflect our own true nature. Through the Looking Glass
is a retreat for women who are eager to discover the language of the
body coming from essence.
