WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT OUR RETREATS:

I am unable to express fully how wonderful this Bermuda Retreat experience was. The tone was set with that EPIC ASS BOAT PARTY. The vibe was supportive, encouraging, and lit AF. All of the beautiful Black Women (including the instructors) showed up open to the experience and providing the kind of restorative energy that makes for a life enhancing experience. I am proud of all that I accomplished in class and for the permission to be exactly where I was when I showed up. I was so effing happy by the end of this trip and I am absolutely booking another BGP Retreat. - Ariel D.

WAITLIST


Retreats fill up quickly so we’re offering 3 waitlist spots for this retreat.

If you claim one of these spots, you need to be able to and will be responsible for paying for the entire retreat (and your personal flights to and from) before the start of the retreat. This means, if a spot becomes available with 6 weeks until the retreat, you would be responsible for paying the full amount by the start of the retreat.

ONLY CLAIM THESE SPOTS IF YOU KNOW YOU WILL BE ABLE TO PAY FOR THE ENTIRE RETREAT IN A SHORT TIME PERIOD.

How this will work:
If you would like to claim a waitlist spot, email us directly at info@blackgirlspole.com.
From here, we will request a $375 deposit for your spot.
If a spot becomes available, we’ll reach out directly and give you 24 hour to claim your spot and make a payment towards the trip.
If a spot does not become available, we will refund your deposit.
If you cannot attend at the time the spot becomes available, you forfeit your deposit. It will not be refunded.

Again, you are responsible for full payment of the retreat by the start of the retreat. And the same rules apply for cancelation as above.


Disclaimer: Your reservation and non-refundable deposit of $500 are requested immediately. Space is limited and reservations are taken on a first come, first served basis. Early Bird pricing only applies to new sign ups and is not available to those with credit. A final payment of the remaining balance is due no later than 20 days prior to the start of your retreat. If full payment is not received 20 days prior to the start of the retreat, Black Girls Pole has the right to cancel your reservation and accept new applicants. Trips are non refundable.
