With soaking tubs nearby, a in-house sauna, and calm communal spaces, it offers everything needed for deep rest and space to spread out.
Daily practices include yoga, morning Gua Sha sessions with meditation, nature walks/hikes, Swiss exploration, and guided reflection. There is spacious time built in for stillness, integration, and ease while also experiencing all there is to see in our area (a day trip to Leukerbad Thermal Baths, a visit to Valère and Tourbillon castles, exploring nearby hamlets with breathtaking mountain views, and so much more.
This retreat is designed to meet you where you are. Simple, grounding, and transformative.

The Accommodations
Welcome to your alpine home for the week! The house is a 300-year-old Engadine farmhouse in the quiet hamlet of Ramosch. It is beautifully renovated with a mix of clean modern design and soulful antique pieces from the region. It feels like stepping into a Swiss family’s cherished holiday home and it’s exactly what I’ve envisioned since my last Switzerland retreat experience. It is spacious, warm, and held with care. With room for up to 12 guests, we’ll be staying in a blend of private and shared rooms at different price points. My favorite part: the bright attic living room, renovated in 2021 where soft alpine light pours in and the whole valley opens up in front of you. All I can picture is sipping coffee in this spot. It’s the perfect place to land, rest, and settle into the slower rhythm of retreat life for the week.

A private room with a queen-sized bed for those desiring extra solitude and space.

The people who come are aware of the space they are sharing with others and are respectful of the overall noise and energy of the sacred space.
The retreats honor where you are—mentally, physically, and emotionally. Come as you are and restore. All movement classes are for all activity-levels as are our daily excursions through The Highlands. Bodywork and skincare will be catered to your own unique needs.
Prices are per person. If you wish to share a room with a friend or family member, please let me know. All rooms are first come first serve when booking. If you choose a shared room and are traveling solo, you will share with a new friend you haven’t met yet!

Testimonials

"Attending my first Through-Line Retreat was nothing short of transformative. I’ve never felt so deeply seen, loved, and accepted by a group of people—especially ones I had just met. The space Dani created was filled with unconditional love, vulnerability, and genuine connection, allowing each of us to show up fully and authentically. My heart cracked wide open on that first retreat, and it’s still open in the most beautiful way. I met some of my best friends on these retreats—people who live on the other side of the country but have become some of the closest, most meaningful relationships in my life. That initial experience shifted so much for me that I signed up for multiple other Through-Line retreats afterward, including the international retreat to Switzerland. Each experience stretched my comfort zone and expanded my capacity for connection, self-trust, and growth. Because of these experiences, I now feel a deeper presence in my friendships, a more embodied connection to myself through somatic practices, and, for what felt like the first time, a true sense of nervous system regulation. (Just attend a retreat at Dani’s home in Montana—your whole body will understand.) These retreats reminded me that it’s possible to build a soul-aligned community in just days when you’re met with open hearts and a safe space to be fully yourself. If your heart is calling you to take a leap—across the country or across the world—with people you've never met, I hope you’ll say yes. There’s so much magic, healing, and joy waiting for you on the other side."

“I was so overwhelmed with gratitude and a heart wide open after attending Dani’s Through-line retreat. Her ability to lead a group in a. calm, grounded, joyful way really set the tone or my nervous system to receive. I didn’t realize how much I needed it until I was there. I continue to receive and contemplate the many blessings and energy shifts I had during this time.”

"Dani is the absolute best! I have been to a couple retreats. I always meet the best people from all over and leave with deep connections. The vibes are cozy and nourishing to the soul."
Jesse
Hi :) I’m Dani!
I believe our stories are what connect us—especially the tender, messy, complicated parts. There’s a unique kind of magic that unfolds when we gather in circle, soften our defenses, and share the truth of who we are. That’s at the heart of every retreat I create: an invitation to return to yourself in a space that feels safe, soulful, and deeply nourishing.
My own path has been shaped by years of navigating mental health challenges, including multiple diagnoses that at times felt like too much to hold. But slowly, through therapeutic work, embodiment practices, learning to live in relationship with my inner world, and choosing sobriety, I began to experience true healing—not as a finish line, but as a homecoming. This personal journey continues to inform every aspect of how I hold space.
I’m a registered yoga teacher, bodyworker, and a forever student of what it means to heal and belong. Though I’m not a therapist, I draw deeply from my lived experience and the framework of Internal Family Systems (IFS), which has become a cornerstone of how I support others. I believe that when we welcome all parts of ourselves with curiosity and compassion, transformation becomes possible.
I host retreats both near and far—from the Swiss Alps abroad to the wild sanctuary of my home in Northwest Montana. The land here is sacred to me. The creek, the forest, the sauna, the soft everyday rituals—they’re all part of the medicine I offer.
At retreat, you’ll likely find me fluffing pillows, lighting candles, offering you a cozy drink, or cracking a goofy face to make you laugh. I love creating beauty, holding grounded space, and being a gentle presence for people doing brave inner work.
If you’re feeling the pull to join, trust it. You are so welcome here—just as you are.
