Loving ourselves, walking fully in our truth and owning our power; in a world that has historically deemed us unworthy, is a huge battle that no one should face alone. We understand that knowing who we truly are, having the courage to step into the world unmasked, sharing our stories with the support of other amazing women; are keys to tapping into our true power. Especially when we do so, together.  As daughters of the diaspora, we believe that this power is also amplified & even more impactful when we return to our roots to reconnect. We believe that every year is a year of return, that we should all embark upon & embrace. Millions of women of color are looking for deeper connections to themselves, each other and the continent… and we have created the perfect bespoke experience for women of color to do just that: IMARA RETREAT.

IMARA is an immersive & emotive life-changing experience, that helps women reconnect to their true power… created by women, for women, with love. A sacred space, with a focus on wellness, personal & professional development; that both invigorates & educates simultaneously. The experience is designed to create greater personal awareness & clarity to help attendees reconnect to self and others, in deeper more meaningful ways. All via bespoke programming aimed to refresh, renew & reinvigorate women of color so they can be ready to take on the world & thrive! Unlike traditional retreats, IMARA is a hybrid of a conference and a retreat that provides a combination of extraordinary content, world-class experiences, and networking.

IMARA helps women reconnect to their true power: It is truly an experience like no other!

And the people have spoken! We recently have been deemed the #1 wellness retreat for women of color by Well & Good. IMARA (as featured in Forbes, Essence magazine & more), is where the most beautiful, affluent, positive, influential and successful women of color from around the globe gather to unite with one goal... encourage, support and heal each other. This uniquely curated experience develops a sanctuary for women of color to freely rediscover ourselves, tap into our full potential and unlock the love & abundance which is our birthright.  All while on the magical continent of Africa!

“The Imara Retreat by The Colored Girl is an immersive space that is geared towards helping Black women reconnect with their power, in magical destinations like Marrakech and Johannesburg. Imara offers features that go beyond common tenants of yoga and meditation retreats with an added focus on panels and workshops from influential women. Past speakers have included CMO of Endeavor Bozoma Saint John, online course launch coach Danielle Leslie, and content creator Jade Kendle.- Well & Good
