A 6-day retreat with Chantelle Jensen & Katya Samana, curated by Becca of Thrive Collective Retreats

The Invitation

Your body remembers what the mind has forgotten.

This retreat is an invitation to step out of performance and into presence.
To move from thinking… into feeling.
From control… into trust.
From output… into embodiment.

Over six days, you will be guided through a deeply curated experience designed to restore your nervous system, reconnect you to your body, and awaken your sensual, intuitive, and creative life force.

This is where:

  • Your body becomes your authority
  • Your nervous system softens and recalibrates
  • Your sensuality returns as power—not performance
  • Your internal stillness becomes your baseline

The Experience: What’s Included?

This is a fully held experience.

From the moment you arrive, every detail has been curated so you can soften, receive, and be in your body—without needing to think, plan, or manage anything.

The Setting: Vajra Jahra

A private jungle sanctuary in Costa Rica, with an unobstructed view of the tallest waterfall in the region.

This land does not rush you.

It holds you.

Morning mist rising over the waterfall.
The sound of water as a constant backdrop to your experience.
Dense jungle. Open sky. Deep stillness.

This is a place where your system naturally unwinds.

Meet Your Guides

Chantelle Jensen — Somatic Healing & Bodywork Guide

Chantelle Jensen, Somatic Healing & Bodywork Guide
Chantelle Jensens is a somatic healing and bodywork guide who hosts retreats for women to reconnect to their bodies and reset their nervous systems.

Chantelle’s work is rooted in the focus of bringing your body back into energetic alignment. Through embodied movement, ritual teachings, bodywork, breathwork, meditation, and guided self-care workshops, you will learn to:

  • Release stored emotion
  • Awaken your feminine energy
  • Build a relationship with your body that actually lasts

With a three-stage embodied movement journey and a self-massage workshop led by Chantelle, you’ll be guided through a deeply intentional process of reconnection.

This is not just a practice; it’s something you build within yourself. What is cultivated here will stay with you, supporting how you move, feel, and show up long after the retreat has ended.


Katya Samana — Feminine Embodiment & Somatic Guide

Katya guides women into deep transformation through the body, emotions, and energy—supporting the release of stored tension, expanding awareness, and reconnecting to authentic expression, creativity, and power. Her work blends somatic practice, sound healing, movement, and voice activation to help you:

  • Release emotional and physical blocks
  • Awaken sensitivity, pleasure, and aliveness
  • Build a deeper, lasting relationship with your body

Rooted in Body-Mind Centering, yoga, and embodied movement, her approach invites women back into their natural rhythm—where softness, strength, and expression coexist. She also supports women through conscious conception, pregnancy, and postpartum integration, guiding them into deeper trust in their bodies and life force.

Based in Costa Rica for over a decade, her path weaves together shamanic roots, jungle living, and global study across somatics, tantra, Taoist philosophy, and sound.
