A gathering in nature, the kind of retreat Chrisna and Salomie bring to their hosts

Two sisters · one circle

Host Us

You have the place and the people. We bring the retreat to you.

We travel to you

We are two sisters from South Africa, Chrisna and Salomie, and we carry our work with us. If you have a place and a circle of people who are ready for something real, we will come to your country and hold a retreat on your land: yoga and meditation in the morning, teaching through the day, good food at one table, fire in the evening, and long walks in whatever nature is at your door.

You bring the place and the people. We bring the teaching, the programme and many years of holding circles.

How it went in Sweden

In September 2026 we did exactly this. Madeleine invited us to Sweden and opened her home to us. Before a single guest arrived, she took us into a different forest every day, until we knew the land we would be teaching on.

Then we travelled out to a farm in the countryside, and for four days eight of us lived together: five guests and the three of us. We did yoga in the morning, ate breakfast, and went into the teachings. We walked in the forest. We cooked and ate well. We made a great deal of fire.

Every guest went home with their own reading, and every one of them gave us wonderful feedback. We came home knowing we want to do this again, in other countries, with other hosts.

What a day looks like

Morning yoga

We start the day on the mat, with breath and gentle movement, before anyone has to think.

Breakfast together

Good, simple, healthy food at one table.

The teachings

The heart of the day. We sit in circle and work with the ancient teachings, one step at a time.

Out on the land

A walk in whatever nature is at your door. In Sweden it was a different forest every day.

Fire in the evening

We end the day around the fire, with time to talk, to be quiet, and to let the day settle.

What we teach

The African Animal Communication System

Every person is born with an animal ally. We show each guest theirs, what it gives them and what it asks of them, and every guest goes home with a personal reading.

The medicine wheel

The directions, the elements and the questions each one puts to us. Old teachings, taught in plain words for people meeting them for the first time.

The moon cycles of a woman

A map of how a woman’s energy moves through the month, and how to plan a life with it and not against it.

Yoga, meditation and kinesiology

The body is part of the work. We move, we breathe, we sit, and we listen to what the body already knows.

What we ask of a host

A place

A home, a farm or a retreat space where a small group can sleep, eat and gather.

A circle of people

Friends, clients or community who are ready for something real. In Sweden we were five guests.

Your knowledge of the land

You know where to walk and where the quiet is. We learn your land before we teach on it.
