A Day of Creative Stillness

1 day retreat

Escape the rhythm of the city and step into a day designed for restoration, creativity, and deep presence. Our Day Retreats take place in serene locations within an hour of Nairobi—forests, farms, lakesides, and hidden gardens where time naturally slows.

Arrive and Breathe

Each retreat blends guided painting, meditative exercises, intuitive movement, and a nourishing meal prepared with wellness in mind. Guests spend the day experimenting with colour, reconnecting with breath, learning new techniques, and embracing a spacious way of being.

Creative Rituals

These escapes are designed for anyone seeking beauty and calm: women’s groups, couples celebrating milestones, families wanting shared experiences, and individuals craving a meaningful day away.

You leave with a renewed sense of balance, a finished artwork, and a heart full of quiet magic.

FAQ

Questions we hear most often

Where do Escape Day Retreats take place?

We reserve private forests, regenerative farms, or lakeside estates within an hour of Nairobi so transfers are effortless yet the setting feels worlds away.

Is the culinary program adaptable to dietary needs?

Yes. Our chef partners create seasonal menus with vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and anti-inflammatory options upon request, using organic Kenyan produce.

Do I need prior art experience to attend?

Not at all. Each day includes foundational demos, one-on-one coaching, and playful prompts so absolute beginners feel supported while experienced artists have room to experiment.

Can we book a private date for friends or a corporate team?

Private bookings are welcome. Share your preferred date and group size, and we will secure the venue, movement facilitators, and culinary team to match your vision.
