Our Story ~ Suzi & Anne
Our journey began in California at the Chopra Center in 2012, we met during our Primordial Sound Meditation teacher training which concluded with us both planting seeds of intention asking how can we best serve ourselves and others? Reconnecting in Germany, in early 2014 to give personal mantras to the management team of a German bank, we felt inspired to create our first weekend retreat in Dusseldorf. The ease in which we co-created a beautiful immersion for our first group inspired us to travel around the world and create transformational retreats in sacred places.
Whilst in Mexico we planted more seeds, and hosted weekend retreats in both Phoenix, Arizona and Cork, Ireland the following year. Suzi also travelled to India frequently as a volunteer group leader with Yoga for Hope, an Irish based charity for four years. Taking yoga groups to visit their projects supporting street children in Kolkata, India. and on retreat to the foothills of the Himalayas. In 2017 as she was saying her final farewell to India she was invited by a tour operator to visit Bhutan, she was instantly inspired to invite Anne to join her. Following all of the synchronicities, signs and opportunities that came their way, they gave birth to Dharma Tour in 2018.
Inspired by the incredible beauty at the foothills of the Himalayas, Suzi and Anne hosted a series of Spring and Fall Equinox retreats, creating spiritual adventures to India and Bhutan in 2018 and 2019. Our travels came to a brief halt as our booked out retreat to Dharamsala in 2020 was cancelled due to the pandemic. Reuniting in Germany again in 2021, we both followed our intuition as we were guided to create a new series of online programs, Trust Your Vibe / Explore Your Quest and we were excited to co-host a truly mystical retreat in the UK in September, 2021.
​
Our shared passion to travel, teach and transform lives continues to inspire us, we believe that the magic begins with our first thought and it is ignited by a stroke of inspiration. Our intentions create our reality and we always prepare for the mystery to show itself, we expect miracles. Our vision is to be of service and allow the Divine to work through us. We endeavour to create supportive containers for all our guests to relax, go within and connect with their heart and soul.
​
We are experienced teachers, and emphasize the importance of daily meditation, learning how to tune in, and trusting what comes.
We are committed to live the teachings and practice what we preach by supporting each other to connect the dots and follow the spiritual guidance we receive. The reason we keep showing up together is because we are always laughing and having fun when we are travelling, we feel expanded and we are prepared to deal with what comes. We both love to go with the flow and see where it leads us!
​
Our mission for our retreats is to support each guest by meeting them where they are at, holding space for them and sharing tools to guide them into expand states of awareness as they explore their unique path back to health, balance and wholeness. We are deeply grateful for the wonderful memories we have created with all who have travelled with us and the deep connections we have shared together.
Our passion is to follow our guidance and make choices that feel aligned (not what is always the easiest) and give room for spontaneous actions to arise. When you join us for your annual retreat; prepare to be amazed, and assured that we do our very best to make you feel safe and taken care of – no matter where we are in the world.
We invite you to experience some of that magic and mystery with us this year, book your flight and explore our new retreat destinations in Ireland, UK and Europe.
