Meet our "Enchanteurs"
Kevin and Susana will be leading the majority of activities, however, they will be joined by a trio of movement and meditation guides, including NEO founders Alexander & Delphine, as well as brilliant local Movement Facilitator Nadine Garnier.
Nadine facilitates NIA Dance classes, Surya Soul workshops and Qi Gong, and will offer all three at our retreat. With her local knowledge, she will also guide us on an afternoon excursion (optional) to a secret spot in nature where we will do a nature dance with headphones.
Alexander is the founder of New Earth Odysseys. He will focus on making sure everything is running smoothly, but he is also a movement facilitator and will lead 2 morning classes, one called "Dance of the Pearl", the other is a "Stop Dance Meditation",
Delphine is also co-organizing, will focus on caring for our guests and flow, but will lead us in a guided meditation one afternoon as well.
Together, the five of us will be your "Enchanteurs" for the weekend, guiding our group in a magical weekend of artistic exploration and holistic celebration.
OUR VENUE NEAR THE BEACH
Zero Gravity Retreat Center
Close to Nature & Town
A vibrant place between tall pine trees and the sea... to feel at home. In a quiet neighborhood on spacious land, Zero Gravity offers the perfect location for a weekend getaway of adventure and relaxation.
Just 30 minutes from Marseilles and less than 5 minutes by car from the La Ciotat train station, it's very easy to get to. Sitting on a hill with enticing views of the sea and only 800 meters from the nearest beaches and restaurants. It's the perfect place to play, and jump into local activities.
“Villa Solaré”, the “Zero Gravity Center” of La Ciotat, has a large meeting room, a large meditation room, kitchens, bathrooms, toilets, bedrooms and heated swimming pool. Year round, it hosts events that move in the direction of the lightness of being, of the Essential.
A PARADISE IN THE COTE D'AZUR
La Ciotat, Just 30min from Marseille
The City of Light
What a gem this place is! Endless stretches of sandy beaches, a picturesque port filled with beautiful boats, an entire coast lined with restaurants and cafes, bike and walking paths, parks and markets, water and land sports, you name it, this town has it.
And if that wasn't enough, just up the coast are the famous Calanques, breathtaking fjords with turquoise waters and jagged white cliffs. Excellent for boat, kayak, or walking tours. And down the coast, you have the famous Cote d'Azur, one famous seaside village after another. And if you head inland, you have some jaw dropping mountain drives and beautiful nature to explore. So much beauty in and around La Ciotat that we highly recommend you stick around some extra days to explore, if you can. You won't regret it!
La Ciotat ("The City" in the ancient Occitan language) is famous for two reasons: The birthplace of Petanque, the French national pastime, and also for being the birthplace of the first ever motion picture, filmed by the Lumiere ("Light") Brothers who invented the "Cinematique in 1895.
