The MELT Retreat
Cambutal, Panamá
November 16-21, 2025
Your body can be both aligned and strong.
Join us at the end of the road in tranquil Cambutal, Panamá, where the Pacific Ocean meets the lush jungle. Disconnect from the demands of everyday life, and reconnect deeply with your body.
This highly focused, small-group retreat is designed for those ready to feel better, release chronic tension, and move beyond persistent pain.
You know your strength is about more than muscles.
You know pain doesn’t always come from where it hurts.
And you’re starting to wonder: Maybe it’s not just “normal aging.”
Perhaps you’ve passed the phase where you could run a 10k “off the couch,” and now those aches and pains don’t fade away with a massage or a stretch. Maybe you're always waiting for your back or neck to "go out" again, or feeling like the discomfort you’re dealing with is unavoidable. You’ve tried strength training, but it feels like it sets you back rather than moves you forward.
It’s time to address the root cause.
You’re noticing patterns—not isolated incidents. Your body is speaking to you, and you’re ready to listen. You’re ready to break free from this cycle.
In this retreat, we’ll dive into the MELT Method, breaking it down into simple, daily practices that restore, strengthen, and awaken your whole system. You'll learn how to:
Release chronic tension at its source
Rewire old compensations that have been holding you back
Build neurological connection and functional strength that doesn’t cause setbacks
Understand how to become your own bodyworker, so you can continue to heal and thrive long after the retreat ends
You’ll leave with tools and a deeper awareness that go far beyond temporary relief. This isn’t just about managing pain—it’s about transforming how you move, feel, and age.
A fluid body is a strong body.
This retreat is your opportunity to:
* Learn how to tune in to your body’s signals and become the expert in what it truly needs
* Understand the MELT Method, a breakthrough technique combining gentle self-massage, neural connection,
and stability work
* Discover how to release chronic tension and rewire long-held movement compensations
* Increase your neurological strength—because a muscle cannot fire if it is not connected with the brain
* Create a proactive care plan to support vibrant, healthful aging for decades to come

Happy Retreaters Say…
I learned to slow down
Taking your class the few times, that I was able to and the one on one session has left such an impact on my life. I am using the tolls you gave me and my MELT roller twice a day. I have learned to breathe correctly and I feel so much better. I think of you often and I am grateful that you came into my life. I don’t live with chronic back pain every day. I have also learned to slow down, stay in the pose and breathe.
I feel more aligned
I’m always so surprised by how simple and effective MELT classes are. The movements tend to be small, and yet I always walk away from class feeling so much better. My body feels more aligned, stronger, and my day feels way better too. I have a been taking classes with Stacy for years, and plan to continue forever.
I feel balanced and pain-free
“After my MELT session yesterday, the pain is gone, and I can walk up and down those stairs easily. I also feel completely balanced from left to right, which is something I have not felt in ages. Everything is just feeling so great- thank you for introducing all of this to me, and for providing the opportunity to expand my ability to help myself live better.”
