Writing With Mermaids retreats are a sanctuary for writers of all genders and orientations. These gentle weekends are a no-pressure, intentionally crafted space to help you connect with your creativity and write from your most authentic self. Through breathwork, guided visualizations, gentle yoga, and time in healing waters, you'll dissolve mental clutter and let your words flow freely.

No prompts. No pressure. No critique.

Just time, space, and a non-judgmental community where your truth is welcome.

Come as you are. Write as you are.

Scholarships and payment plans are available.

The mermaids are waiting.

Dedicate two hours to your writing practice and prioritize your creative process. You'll experience amazing breakthroughs.

These weekly 2 hour online writing sessions center works of gender rebellion, LGBTQA+, polyamory, kink, sex workers, sluts, anti-racism, and neuro-spice. If you’re a writer who has struggled to find writing community where you don’t feel othered or shamed for your orientation, expression, identity, or lifestyle, I can relate.

This network of care can hold and support us, allowing our voices to be heard. Our words have power. It’s important that we are not silenced.

The Flow

• Meet your fellow mermaids
• Grounding, arriving, breathing
• Invocation to the storyteller
• Guided visualization to show you a path to your story
• Time to write
• Read your writing to fellow mermaids (no pressure to share)
• Say farewell until next time!

Introduce me to your work and learn about making the most of what I have to offer

Private classes can be scheduled for convenience and tailored to your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. Feel free to bring up to two guests with you at no extra charge. With a focus on injury prevention and mental health, my yoga classes are one hour of slow-paced, intentional vinyasa. You will be challenged, but with mindfulness and awareness. This mind-body-spirit, holistic practice is the kind of yoga I love to practice and I look forward to sharing it with you. I have a 200hr RYT certification from Yoga Alliance.

One-on-one or with a few chosen friends, this fully customized half-day retreat is the perfect antidote to your busy life. In just a few hours, everything can shift.

Welcome to your soft landing.

This private half-day retreat is designed to help you breathe, make, and remember—who you are, what you want to say, and why your voice matters.

Who This Is For

You don’t need to be “an artist” or “a writer.” You just need a desire to connect with your creativity in a gentle, embodied, judgment-free space.

What Happens in the Half-Day Retreat

This 4.5-hour session is totally yours. You can share it with friends (up to six people) or come alone. We are on your schedule and vibe. Perhaps you'd like to explore the majestic natural surroundings of Las Vegas? Or come enjoy the hot tub, pool, cozy nooks and yoga studio at my place? I can even come to you. You're welcome to reach out to me before booking to discuss options.

We begin with a grounding breath and then move into a guided exploration of memory, image, and expression.

Here's what we might include:

🙏🏻 Yoga

Practicing art from an embodied place helps us to channel our creativity more authentically. No experience or special clothes needed.

🌀 Breath & Visualization

Softly enter the creative flow through simple, trauma-informed breathwork and imaginative journeying.

🎨 Art-Making (Your Way)

Collage, draw, vision board, dance, sing, be. Find space for your creativity to flow. Together, we will explore what wants to be expressed.

✍️ Writing

Getting your story down on paper doesn't have to be hard. Let it float to the surface and spill onto the page.

💬 Optional Share

You’re welcome to share. Or not. We can reflect together or sit quietly with what’s come up. You go at your own pace.

What You WON’T Get

• ❌ No critique or judgment
• ❌ No productivity pressure
• ❌ No forced sharing or performance
• ❌ No pretending to be someone you’re not

What You WILL Get

• ✅ A safe, affirming creative container
• ✅ Personalized, one-on-one guidance
• ✅ Practices to help you ground
• ✅ Permission to take up space with your truth

Why This Matters

We all need places where we can tell the truth without armor. This half-day is a reminder: your voice is valued, your story is art, and you are not alone.
