ABOUT "LA SOLITUDE"
“A hidden gem in New Brunswick. You feel the peace as soon as you arrive. Such gentleness throughout the paths. A place to unplug and to just get off the grid—to come closer to nature and to just BE."
SILENCE
"La Solitude" translated to English refers to "alone time". La solitude values "silence & simplicity".
Paired with connection workshops and embodiment practices, we will be honouring the sacred territory of silence & self-discovery by practicing listening to ourselves and to our environment better.
This is an opportunity to create balance & harmony between being with people, being with yourself & being in silence together.

Therapeutic touch & assists will be offered throughout every yoga class led by Danika. Assists have many benefits, from understanding yoga for your body better, to the co-regulation of human touch. Consent is extremely important.
“The atmosphere you create is so supportive, your energy is so consistent through the session and always reliable. The touch to correct posture so helpful. It felt like I came away with more knowledge about proper form and gained confidence for other classes”
I had taken Danika’s yoga classes before, so I knew the type of energy that she would bring to this retreat. You could feel the love that she put into this weekend and everything was perfectly balanced with just the right ratio of activities/downtime. There was so much nourishment for the mind, body, and soul throughout this retreat.
Danika’s retreat surpassed my expectations! We had the perfect balance of group activities and free time to both be with ourselves and connect 1:1 with the other girls. Danika did amazing as the facilitator, allowing us to feel totally at ease and comfortable to open up and create our own healing experiences. I can’t wait for the next one!
It was my first retreat and I couldn’t be happier. Danika made me feel welcome as soon as i arrived. As an over thinker I was amazed of how easy it was for me to be present. She created a safe environment. Her voice and the way she invites you back to yourself during meditations was one of my favourite part of the weekend. Will definitely do another retreat with her.

Danika Doucet
Danika is a trained & experienced somatic coach, yoga teacher & musician, but that's not what makes her great at holding space. What does is her attention to detail in 👉 how she support an environment that invites curiosity, body awareness & playfulness. It's how she listens, communicates, leads with personality & continues to integrate her life learnings through relationships, further education, mentors & practice.

"I've had my share of heartbreak in friendships, miscommunications, stories of betrayal, etc. It got me close to giving up on the idea of having secure, supportive women in my life.
Over the past few years, I've been on a journey of rewriting that story, and I've brought so much beauty in my life in the shape of women friendships that feel so nourishing & empowering.
What I've come to realize is that seeing yourself and leaning in is a choice and a skill."
