Dori Curtis – Facilitator of Transformation

Dorianna Michelle Curtis (Edwards) is a trauma-informed facilitator, movement artist, energy alchemist, and holistic wellness guide devoted to creating safe, sacred containers for deep transformation. A certified 200-hour Yoga Teacher, BBTRS (Biodynamic Breathwork & Trauma Release System) Practitioner, and 9D Breathwork Facilitator, she bridges science and spirituality to help others release stored tension, awaken vitality, and return home to themselves.

Since founding Vive La Femme in 2006, Dorianna has guided hundreds of women through retreats and embodied journeys designed to reconnect them with their inner wisdom. From the Caribbean to the Midwest, her offerings weave breathwork, yoga, somatic movement, and sacred ritual into experiences that are both grounded and transcendent.

As the co-creator of Rooted & Radiant Retreats, Dorianna invites participants into a full embodiment transformation — a remembrance of the body as the temple of healing, the breath as the bridge to freedom, and community as the medicine. Rooted & Radiant was born from the understanding that the time is now — now to heal, to rise, and to live our most vibrant, authentic lives.

With roots as a teacher of Guinean dance, Waldorf Education, and Pure Barre, Dorianna brings over 20 years of experience in movement as medicine. Her classes and retreats honor nervous-system safety as the foundation of awakening, guiding others to shed layers of survival and step into coherence, joy, and embodied power.

Daily Breathwork - taps the vagus nerve, lowers cortisol, and resets your nervous system. It is a proven way to release stress, restore balance, and reconnect to your radiant self. Our breath is our sacred medicine. This retreat will show you how to use it to heal and reveal just how magical you really are. 9D Breathwork is a whole next level of traditional breathwork. You will not be disappointed by these daily journeys. Yoga - calms the nervous system, supports overall well-being while strengthening the body, improving balance, flexibility and posture. Somatic Movement - rewires the brain-body loop by releasing stored tension, improving vagal tone, and restoring presence-so you feel safe, strong and fully alive again. Island Adventures - explore hidden waterfalls, snorkel in turquoise coves, and forage plant medicine on jungle hikes - each island adventure reconnects you to nature, wonder and wild wisdom. Caribbean White Party - We end the week dancing under the stars in all white as a local DJ spins island-infused grooves form the 70s, 80s, 90s, and today. A soulful celebration of joy, rhythm, and radiant release. Sacred Space and Slowness - our schedule honors your nervous system-balancing guided practice with open space to rest, reflect, and simply be. Integration is where the true magic takes place. Daily journal prompts - tune your frequency through focused gratitude. This daily practice aligns your thoughts with abundance, helping you attract the people, places and purpose you desire. Laughter as Medicine - healing doesn't have to be heavy. Through laughter, movement, and play, we activate the body's natural medicine-boosting immunity, mood, and soul level joy.
