Movement Therapy & Heal Her Workshops
with Tatiana Zamir

Tatiana Zamir is a performance artist and trauma-informed movement therapist devoted to a lifelong path of transformation, deep personal inquiry and purpose. She developed her unique somatic healing method through decades of training and exploration of the body as a vehicle for joy, liberation, and awakening. As a key facilitator in the Joyful Heart Foundation’s final years of retreat offerings, Tatiana helped develop a healing model later studied by Georgetown University—whose research found that five days of immersive healing led to long-term reductions in PTSD, depression, and stress. Based in Los Angeles, Tatiana’s work has taken her around the world, including Bulgaria, Argentina, Namibia, Senegal, Cuba, Mexico, Grenada, Bali, and Brazil. Whether in her Afro-Joy Dance classes, performance art, or movement therapy-based healing arts workshops and retreats, Tatiana holds a uniquely compassionate space—one that catalyzes transformation and supports people around the world in embodying their joy and living unapologetic, creatively fulfilled lives.

Surrounded by ancient trees, vibrant flowers, and the soothing sounds of nature, this sacred land offers space to slow down and reconnect. Each room opens onto a spacious terrace and is thoughtfully appointed with soft stonewashed linens, natural bath products, and touches of comfort like air conditioning and a curated tea and coffee kit. Every detail—from the high-quality textiles to the stillness of the land—invites you into a space of ease, elegance, and soulful restoration.

​Experience Costa Rica 

This retreat includes a sacred day immersed in the Bri Bri culture—connecting with the ancestral wisdom, land, and traditions of one of Costa Rica’s oldest Indigenous communities. You’ll also spend time exploring the region’s most stunning beaches, with the option to kayak along the river and out to sea. During your free time, follow your own rhythm with offerings like horseback rides through the jungle and along the ocean shore, waterfall adventures, boutique shopping, bird watching, or even white-water rafting. Each moment is an invitation to play, connect, and be nourished by the magic of the land.​
