Uncover the Lessons that Afro-Brazilian Spirituality Holds for Womanism

Over nine days, you’ll explore Salvador’s history, spirituality, cuisine, and living traditions through intentional experiences designed to deepen understanding and create space for reflection.

 

During this immersive experience, you will explore Candomblé where it was created; its dynamic rituals, undeniable African roots, and the thriving sense of community amongst women that have helped its traditions remain resilient.

 

Each day blends cultural insight with opportunities to rest, learn, and engage authentically with locals.

 

Presented in partnership with Rev. Tonya Butler-Truesdale and ALAASE, Inc.

Be Rooted in Ancestral Technologies

 

This is your opportunity to learn directly from the source and feel the lineage that connects past and present

 

Explore Candomblé in the very place it emerged, guided by local practitioners, community leaders, and women who carry these teachings forward.

 

Visit sacred sites, observe rituals, and gain cultural and historical context that enriches your understanding of the African diaspora’s spiritual legacy and its dependence on women.

Witness Sisterhood​

Engage with the people who shape the rhythm of the city—chefs, dancers, spiritual leaders, artisans, and everyday women whose stories reflect resilience, joy, and creativity.

 

Traditions are experienced up close, not from a distance. Visit the Sisterhood of the Good Death, and learn their story of survival and collectivism.


This trip is designed to create a sense of sisterhood among participants, grounded in curiosity, humility, and collective exploration.

Rest, Renew, & Reflect

 

Alongside rich cultural learning, you’ll find room to breathe. Each day balances depth with ease; moments for journaling, quiet mornings, beach walks, or a restorative massage.

 

Whether you’re joining a hands-on culinary class, walking historic streets, or sitting in ceremony, the pace encourages presence.

 

By the end of the journey, you’ll carry not just memories, but a renewed sense of self, clarity, and connection to a tradition that continues to evolve through the lives of Black women..
