In Her Skin

A five day retreat devoted to beauty, craft and movement

Hosted by Tomorrow’s Plate and AWiiLD.

Set within the rolling landscape of Gascony, In Her Skin is an intimate gathering for women who wish to reconnect with embodying beauty, craft and the rhythm of the body.

Held within a private château, our days unfold slowly, with morning movement, long tables of seasonal food, creative workshops and quiet moments of rest and conversation in the South of France.

Intentional Rhythm

Each day unfolds with a considered rhythm.

Guests arrive to settle into the château and its grounds before gathering for tea, an opening circle and an evening sound bath to mark the beginning of the retreat.

Mornings begin with optional yoga and breakfast on the terrace. Late mornings and afternoons are shaped by hands on workshops with spacious time to rest, swim or walk the grounds.

Evenings gather around long tables for seasonal meals prepared with locally sourced ingredients, including moments of traditional Chinese nourishment. The structure is gentle, offering both engagement and space for integration.

Expert Facilitation

The retreat is guided by experienced practitioners across beauty, craft and movement, each with depth of practice and a considered approach.

Guests refine complexion and tone in a focused skincare and makeup masterclass, blend a bespoke botanical face oil using carefully selected natural ingredients, and explore jewellery making as a study in adornment shaped by touch and material. An educational astrology workshop introduces the foundations of the birth chart in a grounded and accessible way.

Yoga, sound and bodywork are woven throughout, balancing creative engagement with embodied restoration.

Collaborative Energy

In Her Skin is shaped by all of us who gathers.

Women from different seasons of life come together around shared practice and long tables. Workshops unfold side by side. Conversations continue between sessions. Meals are prepared and enjoyed collectively, creating space for exchange.

There is an ease to the atmosphere. Openness is encouraged. Many guests arrive independently; by the final evening, the table feels familiar. What emerges through shared experience often becomes as meaningful as the time spent together.

A Supportive Space

The retreat is designed to feel steady and held.

There is space for conversation and equal space for quiet. Guests are invited to participate fully while honouring their own pace. Whether joining every session or stepping back when needed, the environment supports both engagement and rest.

Care sits in the details, from shared meals to the rhythm of the days, creating a setting where you feel comfortable and at ease.

Erin Dusek

YOGA

Introducing your retreat yoga teacher, Erin
She shapes the mornings at In Her Skin through movement, breath and practice that settles the body as much as it strengthens it. Her sessions are rooted in physical skill and nervous system awareness, creating a steadiness that carries through the rest of the day.
Erin is a London-born yoga teacher and former professional dancer, now based in Ibiza. After two decades performing alongside international stars, she turned to yoga, breathwork and meditation as a way to find steadiness within a high-pressure world. That background gives her teaching a rare understanding of what the body holds, and what it needs to release.
With eight years of teaching across leading studios in London and the Balearics, her training spans Ashtanga, Vinyasa, Rocket, Mandala and Yin.
For the past five years she has been leading retreats internationally, holding space for women to move, slow down and reconnect with how they feel in their bodies. There is something of Ibiza spirit in how she teaches - an ease, a groundedness, a quiet attentiveness to the moment.
Sylvie Gianella

JEWELLER

Introducing our jewellery workshop host, Sylvie
She brings one of the afternoon workshops at In Her Skin to life through material, touch and an ancient craft. Guests will hand-sculpt their own wax form — the first and most personal stage of the lost wax casting process — which will then be sent for casting in silver or gold to keep.
Sylvie Gianella is a jeweller and maker based in Ibiza, working in the tradition of lost wax casting. Each piece begins as a hand-sculpted wax form, preserving every mark and intention made in the making. Her work uses recycled silver and locally sourced materials, and she brings the same care and attentiveness to her workshops as she does to her own pieces.
There is a particular quality of focus that comes with working with your hands. The mind settles. Creative practice becomes its own form of stillness, a way of returning to yourself that sits alongside movement, nourishment and rest as part of the same act of care.
Adornment is one of the oldest expressions of self-love. The piece you make at In Her Skin will be entirely your own shaped by your hands, cast in metal, yours to keep.
Leah Timmins

SOMATIC THERAPIST, MOVEMENT & SOUND PRACTITIONER

Leah is the founder of Stretch Ibiza, a somatic practice rooted in the connection between body, mind and breath. With a background as a professional dancer and over two decades of experience in movement and therapy, her work brings together physical, emotional and energetic approaches to wellbeing.
Her sessions are deeply intuitive and restorative, weaving together somatic movement, breathwork, bodywork and sound to support nervous system regulation and release stored tension. Drawing from both training and lived experience, Leah creates spaces where the body can soften, process and reconnect.
At In Her Skin, Leah will guide guests through practices designed to ground, open and recalibrate, offering a gentle return to the body’s innate intelligence and a deeper sense of balance.
Melanie Baresse

ASTROLOGER & EDUCATOR

Astrologer, Founder of Whole of the Moon & Co-founder of We Do Woo
Melanie is an astrologer and the founder of Whole of the Moon, as well as co-founder of We Do Woo, a platform dedicated to modern spirituality and self-development. Her work centres on using astrology as a tool for self-awareness, helping individuals better understand their patterns, potential and direction.
Rooted in both intuition and structure, Melanie’s approach brings clarity to the birth chart as a map of personal energy, highlighting natural strengths, life themes and areas for growth. Astrology, in her hands, becomes a grounded and practical framework for navigating change and making aligned decisions.
At In Her Skin, Melanie will host an intimate workshop exploring the foundations of your birth chart, offering insight into your core identity, emotional landscape and personal rhythm. Guests will also have the opportunity to book one-to-one readings, providing a more personalised exploration of their chart and guidance tailored to where they are now and where they are heading.
