Nectar Escape

Anchorage, Alaska | October 8 - 12

Embody. Express. Be Seen.

Nectar Escape is an intimate, multi-day experience designed to deepen your relationship with your body, your movement, and your expression. Through guided concepts, theory, and skill-building, you’ll expand your self-awareness while developing confidence in freestyle and prompted movement.

These concepts unfold across multiple modalities — low flow, spin pole, floorwork, pole straps, and more — allowing for integration across a range of movement styles. This is not a choreography retreat. This is an invitation to discover how you move when nobody is telling you how.

Meet the instructors

What's included in your Nectar Escape experience:

  • 8+ hours of facilitated movement across 4+ concept-driven workshops

  • Instruction across multiple modalities — low flow, spin pole, floorwork, pole straps, edgework, and sensual movement to support range in your pole practice

  • A documented freestyle session — a prompted, professionally captured keepsake of you in your movement

  • Optional embodied yoga sessions on 3 of 5 days to open, ground, and integrate

  • A full day at Alyeska Nordic Spa — access to thermal pools, saunas, steam rooms, cold plunge, and relaxation spaces

  • Welcome dinner with your cohort on arrival night

  • Open studio class access throughout the retreat — chair dance, hypnotic pole flow, and beginner/intermediate tricks

  • Boutique hotel lodging alongside your fellow out-of-town attendees (package dependent)

  • Roommate matching for those booking the shared 2-bedroom experience

  • A small, intentional cohort — intimate by design, never a crowd

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know before you book.

Nectar Escape is designed for movers at all levels who are ready to go deeper — not just technically, but expressively. Whether you are newer to pole or have been moving for years, if you are curious about how movement connects to identity and embodiment, you belong here.
Some experience with pole is helpful, but this is not a technique-first retreat. Our workshops are concept-led and accessible. If you have questions about whether your current level is a fit, reach out before registering at hello@nectarmovementhaus.com
Your $300 deposit is non-refundable under all circumstances. If you need to cancel after paying your full balance, please contact us as soon as possible. We will do our best to work with you, but we cannot guarantee refunds on instruction fees after September 1, 2025.
After registering you will receive a boutique hotel booking link and a discount code. You book your preferred room type directly with the hotel using that code. We strongly recommend booking as soon as possible — your discount code is locked in but room rates are not, and they will increase over time.
Email us at hello@nectarmovementhaus.com and we will add you to our roommate matching list. Reach out as soon as possible — we will connect you with another attendee and confirm your pairing before you book lodging. Spots are first come, first served.
Yes. You can pay a $300 non-refundable deposit now to hold your spot, with the remaining instruction balance of $250 due by September 1, 2025. Lodging is paid separately and directly to the hotel. Alternatively, you can pay your full instruction balance at once via our Stripe link and use AfterPay to split it into interest-free installments.
On October 11 the full cohort travels together to Alyeska Nordic Spa for a full day of rest and restoration. Your day pass includes access to thermal pools, Finnish saunas, an eucalyptus steam room, cold plunge, and relaxation lounges. There is no agenda — just water, warmth, and time to let the movement intensive land. The spa day is included in all packages.
The freestyle closure is the final workshop of the movement intensive. You will be given a movement prompt and invited to respond with everything your body has discovered over the two days. This session is professionally documented — you will receive footage of your movement as a keepsake of the retreat.
Local attendees are welcome to join the movement intensive daily without lodging. A local pass is available for $550, or $675 with the Nordic Spa day included. Reach out directly at hello@nectarmovementhaus.com to register.
Pole shorts, grip aids if you use them, layers for the spa, a journal if that is your thing, and an open mind. A full packing and preparation guide will be sent to all registered participants closer to the retreat date.
