Women’s Weekend

Unplug and immerse yourself in a community of supportive, amazing women – spanning the generations – for a deeply inspiring, joyful experience in Tawonga’s beautiful wilderness.

Program Overview

Women’s Weekend is just for you, to relax, recharge and build community with other women in a safe and majestic space. After our first Women’s Weekend in 2021, the overwhelming consensus was, “we can never NOT do this again!” From the powerful river mikvah to the silent disco to the women’s concert, women shared how this weekend was transformative. 

At Women’s Weekend, you will have the opportunity to:

• Unplug in nature through morning yoga, hikes in the wilderness and dips in the Tuolumne River;
• Connect to Judaism and spirituality through a soulful and musical Shabbat celebration; 
• Tap into your creative side with watercolor, jewelry making, nature art, a women’s concert and other activities. 
• Expand your horizons through dynamic workshops led by expert facilitators on career, parenthood, spirituality and more; 
• Enjoy delicious meals prepared by our talented kitchen staff;
• Release and recharge through dance, reflection and meditation.

Anyone who is 21 or older and women-identifying is welcome – bring your mom, sister, partner and/or friends. Or come solo and meet new friends! Please note this is a kid-free weekend, with exceptions made for breast-feeding infants.

Women’s Weekend Testimonials

I came here trying to find my inner goddess, and this has been nothing less than the perfect weekend for that. Thank you all.Women's Weekend Participant

Until this weekend, Tawonga never felt like my place. I would come and be in the background – but this weekend felt like I belonged. The laughs, the joy, the dancing … That was the most fun I have had, especially after this really rough year. I can’t wait for the next one.Women's Weekend Participant

I hadn’t been back to Tawonga in a decade, and this weekend, I got to make new memories here, and it has been incredible. Connecting with old friends and meeting new people here and being able to share this place with my mom for the first time really in 31 years. This was amazing.Women's Weekend Participant
