Five years of remembering.
Five years of reclaiming.
Five years of walking barefoot through the thresholds of womanhood… together.

What began as a seed is now a thriving forest: an ecosystem of women journeying through Self, sisterhood, and sacred service. Matured by time and deepened by devotion, Roots returns, more than retreat, and more than a festival.

Roots is a rite of passage. This is women, rewriting the story, healing those places where women’s power and intuition have often been silenced, to shape our lives, leadership, and collective mission

Our 5th Annual Gathering Theme: Revere the Wise Wild Woman and honour the Elements as Ancestors...

We bow to those who came before and walk forward, rooted in reverence. We honour our grandmothers, elders, and earth-keepers as living wisdom holders. We carry the threads of culture, lineage, ritual, and remembrance.

The elements walk with us as our most ancient ancestors - fire, water, earth, air, and ether - guiding us home to our cyclical nature and intuitive knowing.

This year you’ll find…
New spaces.
New voices.
A stronger circle of sisterhood.
As we gather to honour the earth’s wisdom and carve a path forward with intention.

What is Roots?

Roots is a 3-night, retreat-style women’s festival and a space to reclaim your rhythm, expression, and embodied truth. Through a rich tapestry of workshops, movement, sound, ritual, and rest, you’re invited to explore the language of your feminine spirit in its raw, unfiltered form. This is a space for expression, embodied truth, and village-based sisterhood - where nothing needs to be fixed, performed, or hidden.

We explore ancestral and embodied practices that tender the matrescence and matricentric experiences, providing an abundant web of offerings across 7 immersive workshop temples, plus wellness, art, performance, and creative spaces...

We grow. And we have fun!
Expect ritual, sweat, silence, song, and wild celebration.
Expect to meet parts of yourself you’ve forgotten or longed to reclaim.
