THE FASCIA WAVE RETREAT: ​ COSTA RICA
may 23 - 30, 2026
7-DAY HEART - CENTERED RETREAT

Vibrational Somatic & Fascia Therapies Certification

Picture
The FasciaWave™ Retreat is rooted in the SVMT Method of Transformation — a heart-centered teaching that begins in the body, honors vibration as the language of change, and invites mindfulness through a gentle, trance-informed perspective.

This retreat is not only about learning more techniques, but about remembering how to listen. Through embodied presence, sound, stillness, and nature, we return to the wisdom that lives beneath thought — where the body leads, resonance guides, and transformation unfolds naturally.
​

Here, sound becomes medicine, the nervous system softens, and healing arises from alignment rather than effort.
Picture
This is not a retreat to escape your life. It is a return to the living intelligence within the body.

Set within the lush, breathing landscapes of Costa Rica, The FasciaWave™ Retreat is an immersive certification for practitioners ready to deepen their relationship with fascia, vibration, and somatic listening. Here, fascia is approached not as tissue to manipulate, but as a responsive, sensing web — a living field that remembers, adapts, and releases when met with attuned presence.

Through the FasciaWave™ approach, you will learn to work with vibration as a wave of communication — guiding resonance through the fascial network to support unwinding, regulation, and embodied coherence. This work is subtle, powerful, and deeply respectful of the body’s timing.

Each day unfolds as a rhythm of learning, practice, integration, and rest — weaving advanced vibrational therapies with nervous system awareness, somatic inquiry, and nature-based restoration. Certification is earned not through force or performance, but through presence, precision, and embodied understanding.

This is fascia work as art. As listening. As relationship. 
​
You are invited to slow down enough to feel what is already moving — and skilled enough to guide it wisely.

All intentions are equally welcome here.


The 5 practices:

​Vibrational Therapies
Picture
The Fascia peaks in vibration and the heart of FasciaWave™ are the protocols and teaching practices using Tuning Forks, Himalayan Bowls, and other instruments. You will have hands-on practice learning the amazing transformational skills of these tools.

You will learn:
  • ​Tuning Fork protocols for inflammation, tension, pain management and more
  • Singing Bowl protocols designed to be used on Fascia lines for various needs
  • Protocols for vagus nerve & nervous system regulation

Fascia Flow, Freeform Fascia
Picture
Fascia Loves Movement and we will be learning and participating in various movement practices to help facilitate transformation...from small micro-movement protocols to Somatic Walks, to somatic dance practices.

You will learn a variety of movement protocols for Fascia hydration and restoration, from micro-movement protocols to dance and walking practices.

Being & Breathing
Picture
The breath doesn't just flow from the nose to the lungs, somatic mindful practices and teachings guide us to embody the breath and teach how to move energy through the breath to the fascia. The breath moves, releases and lubricates the fascia.

You will learn various breath patterns and protocols for nervous system regulation and integration with other tools.

Mindfulness
Picture
From our perspective we go beyond just the teaching of meditation, our teachings lean to a practice we call Somatic Mindfulness, which leads our practice to deepen and move with us.

The retreat will be filled with mindful practices, and you will learn how to incorporate these practices into your sessions. Additionally, you will learn and receive dozens of guided scripts to use in your sessions.

Voice Vitality!  
Picture
Your voice is a living source of vitality,  a gentle vibration that supports the body’s natural flow, regulation, and ease.

This practice is not about singing or performance. It is about using humming, toning, and simple vocal sounds to nourish the fascia, regulate the nervous system, and reconnect with the body from the inside out.

In Voice Vitality, you will be guided through accessible voice-based practices and protocols that support grounding, resilience, and embodied presence — allowing your voice to become a steady tool for care, connection, and self-support.​

You will receive an in depth 200+ page FasciaWave manual along with access to our training portal. With that you’ll have 100’s of additional protocols, scripts and lessons to support your practice.

You’ll have lifetime access to this information as well as access to The Meditate Tribe community. There you’ll receive free meditations, community meetups, free lessons and education… FOR LIFE!!

Love is the Way

If something in you has been quietly longing for a deeper yes—this is your invitation. ​Costa Rica isn’t just a destination. It’s a doorway. A place to remember what your body already knows when the noise falls away: how to breathe again, how to feel again, how to come home to what’s real.

Come sit in the sacred simplicity of nature. Come be held by rhythm, resonance, and community. Come rest, release, and return—not as a new version of you, but as the truest one.

If you feel the call, trust it. If your heart is leaning forward, follow it.

Love is the way. Truth is the path.

And we would be honored to walk it with you in Costa Rica.
