Cole Chance and Victoria Erickson have chosen Sicily for their 2021 summer soiree which is equal parts creative writing, yoga, and Sicilain exploration. We will have 7 days, infused with both inner and outer movement, to open our creative channels and weave of our experiences, musings, feelings, and imaginations into words.
We will be staying at the dazzling Danena Estate - a 19th century farmhouse amongst olive trees on a country lane in southeastern Sicily. There is a beautiful pool (and so delicious in July), nearby sandy beaches, walking trails, and plantations filled with almonds, watermelon fields and olives. We have excursions planned in nature, medieval villages, and we will take to the sea with a special boat adventure.

She spent years writing for various blogs, local magazines, and newspapers on a variety of subjects, and now writes for herself and also helps brands and beings with a specific style of editing.

Victoria believes that when you’re writing from a primal, intuitive place, life can be wondrously free, fiery, energetic, and extraordinary.
Cole Chance
Cole has been a seeker all her life. It has brought her into the depths of addiction, to all corners of the world, and most importantly to the path of yoga. Through this practice, she has begun to understand, unravel, and explore the most fascinating of all landscapes... the inner one. There is always room to find more freedom and come closer to wholeness, both on and off the mat.
Cole’s teaching style reflects her desire to support her students discover on their own unique journey to their desired life. Her philosophy is to live big, love wide, listen deep, and ALWAYS leave room for possibility!
