Repattern:

Immersive Movement Retreat

A One-Day Experience to Reclaim the Spectrum of Human Movement — In The Mountains.

You don’t need more hacks, pressure, or performance.

You need the right conditions to move — with alignment, awareness, and curiosity.

Repattern is a one-day immersive retreat for people who want to deepen their relationship to movement.

Led by kinesiologist and personal trainer Anna Cruz (NASM CPT, founder of AC Fitness) and trauma-informed coach Danielle Palmer (MA, CCC, founder of Tidal Trauma Centre). Together they blend functional fitness conditioning with nervous system-informed insight and embodiment.

Returning to Movement In a Way That Feels Connected

This is for people who want more from movement than just results.

It’s for people who are done with fitness that ignores your inner world — and therapy that forgets your body.

Whether you’re getting back into movement or refining your relationship with it, this day is about recalibrating how you move with yourself.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • You don’t need to be “fit,” but you do need a basic level of physical ability. The day includes a moderate forest hike and a full-body movement session, so some foundational strength, mobility, and cardio capacity is helpful. That said, everything is scalable. You’ll be encouraged to move in ways that feel supportive for your body, and there’s no expectation of perfection or performance. This retreat is designed for people who are curious about movement — not experts in it.

  • Comfortable movement clothes, a water bottle, supportive shoes for hiking and fitness, bathing suit, towel and layers for warmth (especially post-sauna or plunge). Morning snacks, lunch and all exercise equipment provided.

  • We get it. This retreat was designed to feel grounding, not performative. It’s not about wellness culture or curated identity — it’s about honest, intelligent movement in a thoughtful space. Come as you are. No pressure. Just presence.

  • Mini Training sessions with Anna ($75 for 20 minutes) focus on movement alignment, conditioning, or personalized feedback.

    Mini Integration sessions with Danielle ($75 for 20 minutes) offer space to process anything emotional, mental, or somatic that comes up.

    Sign-up will be available on-site during the retreat — first come, first served.

  • Yes — the day is intentionally spacious. You’ll have time between sessions to eat, integrate, rest, or sign up for 1:1 support. We’ve structured the retreat to honour both movement and stillness.

  • No. While Danielle is a clinical counsellor and brings a trauma-informed, somatic lens to her work, this retreat is not therapy. Repattern is an experiential, movement-based offering designed to support embodiment, self-awareness, and connection. It’s not a substitute for therapy or medical treatment. If deeper emotional material arises during the retreat, you’ll be supported with grounding tools and the option to book a short integration session — but the space is not intended to process trauma in a clinical way.
