Testimonials
Thank you for helping us create a family while we were here and for all the new friends I have made from around the world. We all helped us face our fears of solo travels by bringing us together through our passions.
The Hoop Dream Retreat has been the single greatest experience of my entire life. Thank you.
I’m 100% coming next year, and the next, and the next.
This retreat facilitated building new friendships so close that it felt like I really had the opportunity to know who the true person was in everyone that attended, and it allowed me to open up in ways I never have and in ways I have always feared.
