Universal Movement 2026 Retreats
Step into sacred rest, lunar alignment & feminine embodiment — where your soul remembers how to glow ✨
Welcome, I'm Alexe Woods—your cosmic guide and astrology facilitator. Universal Movement isn't just events; it's a soft landing for your soul. I blend lunar rhythms, Yoga Nidra, sensual flow, and star wisdom so you remember who's in charge of your orbit—you.
Universal Movement retreats fuse Yoga Nidra for nervous-system reset with lunar medicine and medical astrology so you leave not just relaxed, but realigned.
If you've ever felt the pull of a full moon but didn't know what to do with it, this is home. Please find below our planned 2026 Retreats—grab your spot before portals close.

YOU’VE HELD IT ALL TOGETHER…
But when was the last time
you were truly held?
Not managing.
Not giving.
Not being everything for everyone else.
Just… held.
THE INVITATION
There is a version of you beneath the noise—
beneath the responsibility,
beneath the constant doing.
She is softer.
More powerful.
Deeply connected to her body, her rhythm, her truth.
This retreat is where you meet her again.
THIS IS NOT JUST A RETREAT
This is a return to your feminine centre.
A space where your nervous system finally exhales.
Where your body becomes something you listen to—
not something you push.
Where rest is not earned…
It is allowed.
WHY THIS TIMING IS SACRED
Held between the Dark Moon and the New Moon in Libra,
this retreat is a powerful energetic threshold.
🥀 The Dark Moon
A space of stillness, release, and deep surrender.
Where you soften what you’ve been holding.
🌒 The New Moon in Libra
Ruled by Venus—planet of beauty, balance, and self-worth.
A moment to reset how you relate to yourself, your body, and your life.
🌹 Venus
The energy of:
- receiving

Caroline
Most extraordinary weekend with extraordinary women. We bathed in yoga nidra, beautifully crafted by Alexe with her calming words and wisdom of action and gentle movement. She is also skilled in astrology and the moon and we can’t wait for her session that will give us our charts. After all, armed with valuable information about alignment with your charts and business and life is so priceless! Alexe you have created a very special retreat package here and one that we will definitely be returning to. ✨
Sue
I had the great pleasure of attending Alexe's retreat for practitioners in the magical place of Glastonbury in March. It was such a great experience. The activity sessions run by other practitioners as well as Alexe herself were enlightening, relaxing, supportive and in some instances transformational.
It was wonderful to spend the weekend and connect with some fabulous women. The venue, accommodation and food were all great. All in all it was a beautiful balance of release, healing, reflection and relaxation. The bonus was having time to visit Glastonbury and some of the sites too.
Michelle
I loved everything about this retreat, from the warm and welcoming environment, to the wonderful energy of the group. The teachers were extremely knowledgeable and passionate. The retreat was well structured and included so many fantastic features. I loved every part of the day, from the Body Scan and body astrology stretch which also included our Astrology charts, to the Kundalini and Feminine Dance to name just a few.
I highly recommend booking with Universal Movement, for some self care practice, and for the wonderful experience that you come away with. I will definitely be booking future retreats.
Liv
Like a precious stone, Alexe and her unique program shine; they are of high value, and she is a most special and rare human.
Her natural ability to weave magic throughout life is to be beheld.
Her method is both interesting and highly practical.
Using her techniques and attending her classes can actively make a difference in your life and to your overall health
I recently returned from a retreat at the Earth Spirit centre in Glastonbury with her and a group of inspiring women. This was everything I hoped it would be and more.
The connection i made with everyone and through fully embracing the offerings has been immense. It has changed my mind set and given me more than i ever imagined.
I cannot wait to do another event / retreat and am so happy to have this connection in my earth life.
