Single Women's Retreat in Goa

DraftCraft International is organising Residential Retreats in Goa for Writers, Photographers / Film-makers and Single Women starting against the backdrop of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI Goa 2024). The Residential Retreats will be conducted by experts in specific areas with carefully-curated sessions, exercise-based workshops and learning activities. And, what better place to host the retreats than Goa which offers the perfect venue, rejuvenating, inspiring and invigorating, to unwind, explore your hidden talents and get in touch with your creative side!


If there's anything tougher than being a woman, it's being a 'single' woman. You get judged round the clock and for doing just about anything in life. Whether it's having a coffee by yourself at a coffee shop; catching a movie or simply buying an I-Pill over the counter. Take a break...you deserve it!

And, what better way to take a break from it all than opt for the Single Women's Retreat in Goa. Conducted by DraftCraft International's The Woman Survivorthis five-day Single Women's Retreat in Goa will help you get away from being judged; get away from the bustle of life; grab an opportunity to get recharged to be able to perform better and have a blast while doing it. You get a chance to be by yourself; sip on a Long Island Iced Tea; down a couple of Tequilas and soak in the sun at dawn or stretch away your blues at a yoga session at dusk. Come, sign up...now!

The Residential Retreat will include Yoga Sessions, Challenge Programmes, Personal Consultation Sessions, Talks/discussions/screenings on life lessons, positivity, balance, bias, the law and mind over matter. You will get an opportunity to partake in The Woman Survivor's Sense-I-Tive Programme to help boost you personality and rediscover the 'real' you.
