Welcome to the Resonance Retreat:
where you return to your true frequency.
Step out of the noise of daily life
and into a space of deep nourishment, beauty, and transformation.
Wake to panoramic ocean views and dance every day,
barefoot, open, alive.
Let the rhythms of nature gently reset your nervous system.
Surrounded by powerful, like-hearted women, held in intentional ceremony, you’ll be guided through movement, music and earth-honoring ritual to release, reconnect, and remember who you are.
This is more than a retreat,
it's a full-body recalibration.
A space where you come back to life.
WHY RESONANCE?
When you’re in resonance, life flows.
Your energy becomes magnetic.
Your decisions become clear.
Your body becomes a place you trust again.
Most women are living disconnected from this.
This work brings you back.
Not through theory...
but through direct, embodied experience.
QUIET THE NOISE | SHIFT YOUR ENERGY | RETURN TO RESONANCE
"I feel like I received a massive upgrade from this retreat. Being truly seen, recognized, and supported created such a deep shift in me. I’m so grateful for you and for these incredible soul sisters — beyond words, beyond measure."
Esther Lamm, 2025 Retreat Participant

Hi! I'm Aliza Rivka
Board-Certified Dance/Movement Therapist, Licensed Creative Arts Therapist, DJ
and founder of Mariposa Movement.
Originally from New York City, I am a clinically trained dance/movement therapist with a lifetime devoted to the study and practice of movement as medicine.
With a BA in Dance from Columbia University, a Master's Degree in Dance/Movement Therapy from Sarah Lawrence College, my work now bridges clinical training with earth-based ceremonial practice: weaving science, somatics and soul.
Since listening to the wisdom of my body and moving to Costa Rica eight years ago, I’ve guided thousands of women across the globe to reclaim their bodies, their truth, and their power.
This is what Mariposa Movement is about.
Join me at the Resonance Retreat: and step into a space where transformation isn’t talked about… it’s experienced, in real time.
“Aliza’s work is guided by a powerful, universal force for healing and evolution. Every detail felt intentional and full of love. Her reverence for the earth and the way she co-creates gave me so much hope. I wouldn’t change a thing.”
Mayra McCullough, founder of Mayra Holifit
"This was hands down the most empowering, joyful and fun retreat I’ve ever had the privilege to be part of. Everything was just incredible."
Magali Deschenes, New Earth DJ Graduate 2025

Is this for me?
This retreat is for you if:
-
You feel disconnected from your body, your joy, or your truth
-
You’re craving depth — not just another “wellness experience”
-
You’re ready to move energy, not just talk about it
-
You want to be in a space with women who are also evolving
This may not be for you if:
-
You’re looking for a passive vacation
-
You’re not ready to be seen, felt, and moved
-
You want surface-level experience over true transformation
