Calling all Black Women who want to travel to Bali and learn how to tap into more sexual satisfaction, body acceptance, and self-love. You’re invited to step into The Bodysex Circle to unplug, reconnect with your feminine self, and bond with a new sisterhood.
Imagine returning home appreciating your body, owning your orgasm, and prioritizing your pleasure.
WELCOME
It’s your first morning in Bali. While at breakfast sipping fresh tropical juice, you hear birds chirping and admire tropical, lush greenery. As the pleasure of this moment washes over you...you finally feel like you have space to breathe.
After breakfast you enjoy morning meditation and sacred dance with new sister friends. Dancing and moving helps you reconnect with your body... your breath... and the beauty envelops you. Gathering in the circle feels like an ancient, ancestral ritual. The healing is starting.
Goosebumps move up your arms. You feel a deep knowing in your soul. No Sister, it's not a dream. You're really here, in Bali, (the magical place you’ve been wanting to visit for so long) and your life is already transforming as you step into The Bodysex Circle. You’re ready to reclaim your pleasure.
For 7 days you’ll be in the company of a small group of brilliant like-minded women, sharing collective wisdom, and immersed in the love of sisterhood. You’ll feel so nourished in a way that can only be experienced in a sacred retreat. But this retreat, unlike so many others, centers on sexual wellness, body acceptance & pleasure.
On retreat you’ll learn what you never got from your mama or sex ed, so you can actually use your body as an instrument for sexual pleasure.
Imagine finally having open and honest discussions in a safe space about sex and pleasure with other Black women.
With Bodysex you’ll discover your pleasure anatomy, as well as how to own your orgasm, and prioritize your pleasure.
WHAT IS BODYSEX?
Bodysex® is an educational and transformational method developed over 40 years ago by Betty Dodson, PhD, who was an icon in the field of sex education. She aimed to help women heal body shame and pleasure anxiety while exploring how to have better orgasms.
Bodysex Core Beliefs:
✨Sexual pleasure and independent orgasm is a fundamental human right. It is the source of life and creativity.
✨Masturbation is the foundation of all human sexuality.
✨The clitoris is a woman’s primary sensory sex organ.
✨All women can orgasm with the right support, education and stimulation.
✨Every woman is the expert of her own body.
✨Self-Pleasure is healing and a part of self-care.
WHY BODYSEX?
You, as a Black woman, have been groomed to work, to struggle, and to push through life which often leaves you feeling disconnected from your body and your pleasure.
The Black Goddess Collective seeks to bring Bodysex to you as a way to:
🌸correct years of miseducation about your sexual anatomy;
🌸celebrate your beautiful Black body; and
🌸collectively heal trauma and shame around sex.
Goddess, it’s time to expand your capacity to receive more satisfying sexual pleasure.
We invite you to the Bodysex Circle in Bali to begin your journey of education, self-pleasure, and self-love. Black Goddess Collective curates Bodysex Circles for Black women because we understand the need to create vulnerable, safe spaces so you can be honest and real about your challenges as a Black woman. This retreat will allow you to feel the sisterhood of unconditional acceptance, compassion, and support.
WHAT TO EXPECT FROM THE BODYSEX CIRCLE?
What you’ve been NEEDING is finally here! A Self-Pleasure Retreat designed to give you the sexual wellness and educational tools to heal and expand your relationship to your sexuality so that you can embody the Feminine Goddess within.
The Bodysex Circle is a sacred space that occurs in the nude, but is not sexual.
The Bodysex Circle will happen on specific days and times throughout the retreat. You will be naked ONLY during Bodysex circles at designated times. Otherwise, you’ll be fully clothed.
You’ll learn what nobody ever taught you about your pleasure and your sexual anatomy, so you can . . .
✨appreciate your body more!
✨increase your pleasure capacity!
✨more easily access your orgasm (with or without a partner)!
✨learn how to become comfortable with self-pleasure (aka masturbation)!
The Bodysex Circle Curriculum includes:
1. VULVA EDUCATION
You’ll learn all about your vulva (ladies, it’s vulva not vagina) and your pleasure anatomy by looking at Betty’s vulva sketches, anatomical drawings, and the internal clitoral structure.
Women have the most sophisticated sex organ on the planet capable of endless pleasure. All women can orgasm. The clitoris is evergreen – it never ages – you can have orgasms until the day you die. And the great news is ladies, it's never too late to begin.
We’ll teach you about different types of orgasms and masturbation techniques so you can discover what you like best. Imagine having more confidence about how to please yourself (whether or not you have a partner) AND ask for what you want in the bedroom (if you do have a partner).
2. GENITIAL SHOW & TELL
Think about how many times you look at your face but not your sex organ. To fully embrace sexual pleasure, you must understand your basic anatomy, find the parts that bring you to orgasm, and claim your body for your own pleasure.
During Genital Show & Tell, you’ll explore your own vulva, see the diversity of other women’s genitalia and let go of genital shame and replace it with pride. You’ll identify your clitoris, clitoral shaft, inner and outer labia, pelvic floor muscle, urethral sponge (the g-spot), and choose a name for your vulva. When you view, touch, and name your sex organ, you take ownership of your body. Pleasure exists for you and those you choose to share it with….period.
3. CIRCLE SHARE
Together, we’ll pull back the layers of shame, guilt, misinformation and trauma to reveal your true sexual self. Through the Bodysex Circle, you’ll authentically share how you feel about your body and your orgasm in a welcoming, non-judgmental space. Being a part of a group of supportive women, sharing struggles and experiences will help you release your own shame.
The Bodysex Circle fosters open and honest discussions that will help you know that you’re not alone in your sexual struggles and gives you practical tools so you can own and enhance your sexual pleasure (i.e. have more consistent orgasms!)
4. EROTIC RECESS
Have you ever given yourself a vulva massage? The only way you can be an expert of your own body is by exploring and practicing. Then and only then can you bring yourself to blissful pleasure and ask your partner for what you want sexually.
Did you know that breath and sound can generate a deep orgasm? Combining the power of your breath and sound can lead to deeply, powerful orgasms.
Have you discovered all the parts of your vulva that feel good? For example, you can experience orgasms just by applying pressure to your outer labia.
Throughout the Bodysex experience you’ll learn all of this plus so much more. During Erotic Recess, you’ll get to apply and practice everything you learned by exploring on your own body, without judgment or expectations. Get ready for a powerful, transformational ritual.
VENUE
You’ll be spending 7 relaxing days at a luxury resort close to downtown Ubud. The retreat center is nestled in tropical, lush greenery so it’s the perfect place to ground and reconnect to your sensual, sexual self. Your spacious air-conditioned suite has everything you need to rest and unwind. It’s beautiful and indulgent that you’ll never want to leave your new home in Bali.
Your garden suite is fully furnished with modern amenities, a beautiful mini garden and fish pond right outside your doorstep, creating serenity and peace – just what you need to de-stress and finally woosah.
Feel like some quiet time? How about a relaxing warm soak in your bathtub? With dimmed lights, nature sounds & lavender aromas in the air, you'll float away…
When you feel like some company and getting to know your new sister-friends, you can hang out in the yoga shala, swimming pool, or the many lounge areas sprinkled throughout the resort.
And when you want to start or end your day with deeper relaxation, you can pop into the award-winning onsite spa for traditional Balinese spa treatments like massages, facials, or flower baths. So much pampering to be treated like the queen you are. You deserve this!
CUISINE
The food (OMG!) you won’t be able to stop talking about the delicious flavors - everything from juice to salads to veggies is so fresh!
Bali is a foodie heaven full of vegan, vegetarian, plant based foods that are healthy and organic. You can also try delicious peanut chicken, seafood fried rice, or curry/coconut sauces that are out of this world. So much variety and options to choose from at every meal. You can’t go wrong with whatever you eat.
RETREAT OVERVIEW
Your 7 Day Self-Pleasure Retreat in Bali will include Bodysex Circles at designated days and times. You’ll receive a detailed schedule prior to retreat. Here’s a brief overview of the entire retreat:
-
🌴 DAY 1 - WELCOME TO BALIWelcome to Ubud, Bali. Upon landing at the Ngurah Rai International Airport, a driver will pick you up and whisk you away to your gorgeous hotel villa, just a 45 minute drive from the airport. You will be able to check-in at 2:00pm. Take a few hours to unpack, explore the villa, and unwind. At 6:00 pm, we’ll officially kick-off the retreat with a special Balinese welcome, to be followed by a welcome dinner. You’ll drift off to sleep in your beautifully appointed, modern room surrounded by a tropical garden and nestled by the sounds of nature lulling you to restful sleep.
-
🌴 DAY 2 - SELF-CARE BEGINS...Start your day with Balinese pancakes, mouth watering fresh fruit, juices, and local treats that nourish your belly. The flavors will dance on your tongue and, best of all, you don't have to lift a finger to make a thing. After your satisfying meal, you’ll enjoy a pampering Balinese massage at the hotel. Aaahhh. This is how a Black Goddess deserves to be treated, right?! As you relax and settle into the fact that you’re actually in Bali (pinch me!), you’ll step into your first Black Goddess Sister Circle. Inside the sacred space, you begin to uncover pathways to blissful living as you redefine the meaning of self care. You’ll be surprised to learn that self-care is not something you buy or do that exists outside of yourself, but rather a way of being in relationship with yourself. After the first Goddess workshop, spend a majority of your afternoon relaxing, unplugging, and decompressing. It’s the kind of quiet time you don’t get enough of at home. Then, towards the evening, it’s shopping time! A driver will escort you to the local Ubud market to explore shops. (Sis, come with an empty bag, because the shopping is that amazing and you’ll find cute dresses, souvenirs, art work, and everything in between). The rest of the evening is yours to enjoy, meandering through the streets, exploring local shops, finding hidden treasure, and trying out local food and drink. Your villa is minutes away from the heart of the city center, so you and your new sister-friends can play all night.
-
🌴 DAY 3 - BALANCE YOUR MIND, BODY, & SPIRITDuring this week we’ll teach you ways to tap into your divine feminine energy by helping you master the art of receiving and allowing. Today, you’ll put that into practice through a powerful sound healing experience. In this sound healing session, live instruments wash over you and you’ll naturally drift into a deep meditation and reconnect to a deeper part of yourself. Think about how your favorite song can change your mood. Well, sound healing is a little like that. We’re so excited to share this one of a kind experience that only exists in Bali. If you're thinking that this is too woo-woo for you, please know that sound healing is a scientifically proven ancient therapeutic and restorative methodology. You’ll get out of your head, into your body, and access deep inner freedom, self-love, and acceptance. At a minimum you’ll walk away feeling less stressed and more relaxed. And if you’re open to going deeper, it’s possible to tap into your spiritual divinity in a more profound way. The rest of the day is YOURS to linger in the high vibes. Nap. Rest. Restore. Reconnect to yourself. The point is you get to do WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO.
-
🌴 DAY 4 - TIME TO LET GOIt’s NYE. And you’re about to have another once in a lifetime experience. This epic day starts with silence and grounding during the Black Goddess Sister Circle. Your journey to awaken and to heal deepens more by going to the sacred healing waters to purify your mind and soul. The Hindu believe that these waters have magical properties and local Balinese come here to purify themselves and be blessed by water spouts that feed one large body of freshwater. Bring a bathing suit, sarong and a change of dry clothes as you will participate in a sacred 3000 year old ritual. You’ll be guided in a purification ceremony symbolizing the release of what no longer serves you and welcome abundance, flow and ease in the year ahead. After the sacred water temple, it’s time for lunch followed by a pampering afternoon. Your Black Goddess Spa Day includes two signature treatments. We don’t want to spoil the surprise, but think of flowers, massages, and body treatments. How’s that for a NYE day activity for a Goddess? Your magical day will end with our signature Black Goddess Year End Release Method. A powerful process that will help you bring healthy closure to 2023 and invite more pleasure, flow and fun into 2024. Be ready for an exquisite NYE celebration!
-
🌴 DAY 5 - HAPPY NEW YEAR!Happy New Year! You’re starting 2024 with a fun, adventure filled day. After a delicious breakfast, you’ll experience the most iconic instagramable parts of Bali’s beautiful rice fields; the infamous Balinese coffee, and so much more. Grab your hat, sunglasses, and camera. Return to your villa and rest from your morning outing. Spend your afternoon reflecting. Maybe you share your intentions with your new sister-friends or relax poolside journaling what you want your new year to look like. Or if you feel a little tired, take a midday guilt-free nap. In the evening, you’ll head out to a cultural dinner with a local Balinese family, to experience real authentic Balinese culture in a traditional family compound. We’ll hear about the traditions of Bali, the meaning of offerings, learn how to make an offering, enjoy an indonesian buffet, all followed by traditional dance performances. A perfect ending to a perfect first day of the year!
-
🌴 DAY 6 - PAMPERING DAY TO RELAX, RELATE, RELEASEThis final day is YOURS to explore and enjoy as you wish. What can you do? Wander around the city, do more shopping, explore the countryside, take a nap, go to the beach, relax poolside, take a Balinese cooking class or a number of other activities that are available to you. End the last day together, in a sacred ceremony wearing red, for a special farewell dinner. Let’s toast to awakening your Divine Feminine and reclaiming your Black Goddess power.
-
🌴 DAY 7 - YOU'LL NEVER FORGETYou’ll never forget the memories and sisterhood you had this week in Bali. After breakfast you'll check-out by 11am, then depart for the Ngurah Rai International Airport. As you say goodbye to this beautiful and rich island nation, you now feel more balanced, more peaceful, calmer and more powerful, not in an aggressive, masculine way, but rather in a softer, subtler, quieter way. Now you’ll follow your intuition and take inspired action this coming year. That will lead you to experience more love, beauty, abundance than you had before. You’ll always remember the way you felt during your meditation times, at yoga practices, during your sound healing and under the healing waters. You felt restored, whole and balanced, and take those feelings back home with you. Now, you also have tools to support your new way of being. You’re unapologetic about self-care and pleasure being your top priorities.

BODYSEX FAQs
WHY BODYSEX?
As a little Black girl, were you taught that touching “down there” was bad and a no-no? The truth is a Black woman’s pleasure has never been a priority or even an expectation. So, of course, opening up and having an honest conversation about sex is hard.
And for Black Women especially, your sexual pleasure and orgasms, or the lack thereof, has been given little attention or understanding. The Euro Centric, Colonizing Patricial, Western American culture (yeah, it’s a mouthful but we said that) has conditioned you to compare and devalue your natural Black Body.
After a few hours in a Bodysex circle, you’ll begin to unravel all of the BS that has been fed to you and learn lifelong practical tools to unlock and eventually master your own sexual pleasure and satisfaction. And by the way ladies, unlocking this door will unlock the other parts of you that you may find also unsatisfying and unfulfilling
WHO IS THIS FOR?
The Self-Pleasure Retreat is exclusively for Black women vulva owners. All sizes, shapes, and abilities are welcome.
WHERE CAN I LEARN MORE ABOUT BODYSEX?
Go to Netflix and find The Goop Lab with Gweneth Paltrow. Watch the “The Pleasure is Ours” episode (Season 1; Episode 3) with Betty Dodson to see if this is right for you.
WHY NUDITY?
The heart of the workshop is vulnerability. During retreat you’ll become more transparent to yourself and to each other so that we might uncover things that are keeping us from experiencing pleasure and accepting ourselves as we are. Clothes project an image of who we are and in Bodysex we want to be as close to our authentic selves as we can be so that the healing processes can happen. This will also help to heal negative body image. Time with others in this state will help us develop a deeper level of comfort within our bodies.
WILL WE BE NAKED DURING THE ENTIRE RETREAT?
No, you will not be naked for the entire retreat. You will be naked only during Bodysex circles at designated times. Otherwise, you’ll be fully clothed. Please know your privacy, safety and comfort is paramount. We will be in a safe, private environment with only the retreat participants.
WILL THERE BE ANY SHARED SEXUAL EXPERIENCES?
ABSOLUTELY NOT. Bodysex is not sexual. During retreat, you will be naked ONLY during the Bodysex Circle teaching. There will be no shared sexual experiences. There will be no touching other people whatsoever. All touching is self touching.
WHY LOOK SO INTIMATELY AT OURSELVES AND ONE ANOTHER’S BODIES?
The purpose is to familiarize ourselves with our genitals so we can better understand their function and how they look. It is uncommon for many individuals to have looked at their own genitals. And it is even more uncommon to have shown our genitals to others. Knowing sexual parts is all-important to enhance our orgasmic and pleasure potential. Seeing other genitals helps us to appreciate the samenesses and differences. Enough can’t be said about the power of others admiring this most sacred part of our body. It has the power to heal shame, celebrate beauty, and really connect us to our sexual selves as nothing else can
WHY INCLUDE MASTURBATION IN THE WORKSHOP?
Many of us can be stuck in our known self-pleasure (masturbation) practices and this is a way for you to rethink your practice. A demonstration is done for tips and pointers. We are here to fully learn about our sexuality within our bodies. Masturbation is the foundation of our learning. Doing it together becomes a celebration! We find in breaking this cultural taboo, it becomes natural and a fun learning experience. The best way to learn is by having fun. The experience of witnessing others’ self-generated sexual pleasure and having our’s witnessed is both powerful and vulnerable. There is no right or wrong way to do this. The point is to enjoy yourself as much as possible in the presence of others. Orgasm is not the goal. If you have an orgasm or two or three, that is great and if you don’t that is great too.
WHAT IF I’M NERVOUS?
Participants report that the most nerve-wracking minutes are just before arriving and when they first join the circle. And overwhelmingly they say that the fear, shame, and anxiety lift within minutes after people begin sharing. If you believe that being nude may be an issue for you, please schedule a call with us before registering so we can understand better.
CAN I ATTEND THE RETREAT BUT NOT PARTICIPATE IN THE BODYSEX CIRCLE?
No. Although the Retreat consists of more activities than the Bodysex Circles, the Circles are a major part of the learning and experience of this particular retreat. We do host Self-Care Retreats that do not include Bodysex Circles. However, part of this Retreat includes Bodysex Circles.
WHAT IF I CHANGE MY MIND AND AM NO LONGER COMFORTABLE WITH BEING NUDE?
If at any time you feel uncomfortable, please know that you can share your candid concerns directly with us at any time. We strive to create a safe and non judgemental space for all participants, however in the unlikely event that you wish to opt out of the Bodysex Circles, please know that you will also be opting out of the entire Bali retreat experience.
WHAT IF I HAVE MY PERIOD?
No problem. Someone almost always has their period. You can use a tampon, menstrual cup, or a piece of natural sea sponge during the body celebration ritual and erotic recess.
WHAT IF I HAVE A YEAST INFECTION?
No problem. Simply do what you normally do to treat a yeast infection (whether that is probiotics + dietary adjustments, or a Monistat egg) and participate fully.
WHAT IF I CAN'T ORGASM?
If you orgasm, great. If you don't, that's ok too. Orgasm is NOT the goal. We're here to heal body shame, overcome sexual guilt and experience true connection. There's no agenda and no expectations.
DO I NEED A VIBRATOR OR BARBELL?
We recommend that you purchase a magic wand and barbell to use during the Bodysex portion of the Retreat. We will send you detailed information on where to purchase them after you register.
BALI Frequently Asked Questions
Just so I’m clear, this isn’t a typical vacation, right?
Exactly, it’s a retreat, which in some ways, it’s like a vacation, except that instead of the focus being on the outside of you, the focus is on the inside. The retreat is space for you to UNPLUG and make time for your healing and restoration.
On a transformational journey, you will do some vacation stuff, but the real experience is all about the inner you. Sure, we will tour sites and enjoy the beaches, the food and culture of the people, but all of that is the backdrop to the main event, which is you. A retreat is your opportunity to check-in with yourself, create yourself and love and nurture yourself for an uninterrupted length of time. And because you have us helping and supporting you on your journey, you can sit back, relax and enjoy the ride.
OKAY, SO WHAT AM I REALLY COMMITTING TO HERE?
-
To unplug - This is a totally immersive experience and to receive the full benefit you have to commit to unplugging. During retreat we strongly encourage you to disrupt the mindless habit of scrolling and having your phone in hand all the time. Having time away is a chance to practice a new way of being that you can take it home with you. This retreat is an invitation to unplug from your phone, unplug from social media, and simply be present in each moment. You’ll thank us after a week of disconnecting.
-
To reconnect with yourself and do the healing work - This is not the trip where you come to be cute. It’s about transforming your life and soul. So don’t worry about having cute hair, cute clothes, and full on make-up. Instead come for your healing and restoration. Be okay to ugly cry, get your hair wet and be perfectly imperfect. This is your opportunity to be yourself, be vulnerable, be natural and be free with a loving group of other Black women who are all doing the same thing.
-
To take pictures with the heart - And about dem pictures. Of course, we want you to enjoy yourself, take some pics, and capture Bali’s lush beauty. Please be mindful of others' privacy and trust that having less pictures will not diminish your experience. There will be specific times to take pictures and be on your phone. We are encouraging you to take mental pictures; feel the experiences with your body and senses and pictures with your heart. This is another way to be more present in the moment. A gift that will serve you when you return home.
CAN I BRING MY FAMILY?
No, because this retreat is for YOU. We know the sacrifices you make for your family, but now it’s time for them to support you. So say yes to yourself and give yourself permission to prioritize your self-care without apology.
DO I NEED A PASSPORT?
Yes, a passport is required. You must have a passport that isn’t expiring within 6 months of retreat.
DO I NEED VACCINES?
Vaccinations for Indonesia are not mandatory but strongly encouraged; please look at CDC recommendations. Regarding Covid vaccines and tests, we will advise you (based on country requirements) closer to retreat departure.
HOW DO I GET THERE?
You will fly to Indonesia. Use DPS airport code for Bali Ngurah Rai International Airport, also known as Denpasar International Airport. Once you arrive, a driver will meet you and escort you to your villa.
WHEN IS CHECK-IN/OUT TIME?
>> CHECK IN The retreat begins on December 16, 2023 at 6:00 PM. Check-in begins at 2:00 PM. Expect a 45 minute drive from DPS Airport and you should plan to arrive in Bali (ideally) no later than 2:00 PM.
>> CHECK OUT The retreat ends on December 22, 2023. Check out is at 11:00 AM. 12 noon. Please add 3 hours before your flight departure; this accounts for the 45 minute drive to DPS Airport as well as arriving at the airport two and a half hours before your flight home.
EARLY CHECK-IN/ LATE CHECK-OUT
Unfortunately the retreat center cannot accommodate requests to arrive early or stay late, so you’ll need to book separate hotel accommodations outside of retreat dates.
WHAT ABOUT THE FOOD AND DRINK, ARE THEY SAFE TO CONSUME?
Yes, food is safe. We will be dining at either the resort or established restaurants. The tap water in Bali isn't recommended for drinking, so avoid it and stick to sealed bottled water. Also, just in case, pack some tummy aids. If you have ever been to Mexico or any developing country, you know what we mean. Things happen, of course, but you should be fine.
WILL I NEED TO EXCHANGE MONEY?
Rupiahs are used in Bali and are available at banks and currency exchange centers upon arrival in Bali. Credit cards are accepted at most hotels, restaurants, and stores. Most transactions are completed in rupiahs and a surcharge frequently is added for credit card payments, so check with your credit card company.
WHAT SHOULD I PACK AND WEAR?
Bali is HOT so pack cool clothing. Casual and comfortable (yoga pants, summer dress, sandals). But leave space in your suitcase because you’ll find lots of cute dresses in Bali.
HOW MUCH MONEY SHOULD I BRING?
With an all inclusive retreat everything is included. However some things to keep in mind are:
-
Daily cash for tips (10-15% gratuity).
-
Shopping for souvenirs.
-
Additional excursions during your free time.
-
Money for meals not included in the package. Credit cards are accepted at most restaurants and stores.
There are money exchanges at the airport and at local ATM’s. You can go to https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter to see current money exchange rates.
