(your fantasy role will be allocated at your time of retreat booking with further information - please note that roles for this are predominately she/her)  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/64dceb90-252a-11f1-a591-7f7175887899-rimg-w1106-h740-dc497530-gmir.jpg Meet your yoga instructor and co-host Victoria...(aka M**der Mystery Onyx Blaxen this weekend!)I was born and raised in New York and moved to Australia in 2016. Now, I live in Brisbane with my husband and two fluffy Samoyeds.I completed my Pilates training in 2022 and my 200 HR Yoga Teacher Training last year. I am also qualified in first aid and CPR.In my free time, I love performing and choreographing musicals. I've been in productions like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Phantom of the Opera, and choreographed shows like The Wedding Singer and Kinky Boots.When not performing, I enjoy camping, the beach, and reading. My favorite series is Zodiac Academy, and my top read this year is Spark of the Everflame by Penn Cole.I’m excited for the reading retreat to connect with fellow book lovers. I look forward to sharing my passion for books and enjoying the supportive community of the Celestial Inner Circle.  https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/6511de40-252a-11f1-a591-7f7175887899-rimg-w561-h740-dceac1d4-gmir.jpg So let's make that really clearHere are the inclusions:Two nights accommodation in an ideallic setting with your bookish friends. There are a mix of separate bedrooms, and rooms with multiple beds, it is more of a "sleepover" feeling and getting to know your friends than staying in a hotel with totally separate rooms. We are sharing the house all together to catch up. However there is plenty of space on the grounds if you need alone time and want to read by yourself at the pond or go for a swim etc. For a full view of the rooms please click .All meals included, welcome grazing platter and mead tasting (or non-alcoholic version), Italian order-in dinner, popcorn and rockyroad for movie and games night, breakfasts (please choose at Checkout when booking), high-tea style tiara lunch with fresh scones and jam and cream, PRIVATE CHEF served dinner - three canapes, main course and dessert, and breakfast.BookTheme merchandiseYoga each morning (professional qualified coach with mats provided)What you need to bring:Your own alcohol or what you prefer to drink. We are going to have a lot of fun at our M**der mystery night and our games night, but we don't want sore heads or anyone sick. So while we say bring your own alcohol, please don't bring excessive amounts as this is not the vibe for the weekend. While there will be OJ for breakfast and non-alcoholic options ... if your life is not complete without Coke or Red Bull etc please bring these along, or any other comfort foods or speciality items you require (special sugar, milks etc). We will try and cater for everyone, but if it is really important - bring it along just in case.A big smileSwimmersPricing:Bedding can be viewed in more detail at this .$850	Room 1	Single$850	Room 1	Single$820	Room 1	Sofa Single$820	Room 1	Sofa Single$850	Room 2	Single$850	Room 2	Single$880	Room 4	Queen$850	Room 4	Single$860	Room 5	Double$860	Room 5	Double$820	Room 5	Single Top Bunk$850	Room 5	Single$780	Room 5	Single Rollaway$780	Room 5	Single RollawayCheck out Tips:You must choose your meals when you check out.Make bookings per person - do not try and book for two people as you can't choose separate meal choices.It's a reading retreat ... so what will you be reading you ask??Coming soon!YOUR CELESTIAL FESTIVAL HOSTI am so excited to meet you all!
