June 28th - July 4th, 2026 | Tuscany, Italy
My Summer of Love
come breathe life into the woman within you who is warm, sensual, fully expressed and creates what she wants in love, intimacy and life
Woman, come remember who you are.
Connect with the parts of you that get lost in the chaos and roles of daily life. The space to hear your own voice and feel your own heart and body. Feel the pulse of life and eros come alive in you again and return home with new ways of meeting what is being asked of you right now.
Imagine a getaway with a truly delightful group of friends on a centuries old farm in the Tuscan countryside. One where you experience a summer romance that changes everything for you. How you see and feel yourself. What’s possible in your life, in love, and in pleasure. Your own Italian love affair…with none other than yourself. All while being witnessed and celebrated by others.
"Nothing was ever quite
the same after that."
We’ll spend our days in somatic movement, reflection, creativity, expression and play...
Walk together into town for dinner and gelato. Go on picnics and swim in the beautiful cold springs nearby. Gather around the fire or dance into the night underneath the stars. Wooing your body and soul with pleasure, beauty, adventure, rest, and repose – all in the name of self-love and becoming and expressing more of YOU.
Slowing down enough to hear your own voice and honor your body's knowing and desires.
"I feel this incredible sense of freedom. I'm not sure what magical alchemy occurred on the retreat to bring me here, but I just feel this beautiful feeling of unapologetic okayness with myself. I feel less like I need to explain myself or fit myself into what others want or need from me. I think I'm going to learn how to choose things based on what feels right for me and my body, for the first time in my life!”
~ Elizah
I have led -- and attended -- many retreats over the last decade.
Every time I return home from a retreat, I do so as a slightly new version of myself…with new flavors and capacity awakened within me that in turn become fuel for my dreams and my relationships.
I can promise you this – you’ll come home from this retreat in a state of overflow and embodying new possibilities. You’ll watch in delight as your life and relationships reorganize around you in the most magical ways.

My dear, let me tell you...

We’ll take most of our meals at the farmhouse, where you can expect nourishing farm-to-table organic, vegetarian meals.
We will also enjoy a few meals away from the farm that will offer non-vegetarian fare as well; such as a picnic by the river and lunch or dinner in a nearby village.

“I think I'll treasure most the acceptance and loving. I get to hold it close as evidence that I can be true to myself and still belong, still have loving and caring shown to me, and not wear the scarlet letter of wrong, weird or different."
Accomadations
We’ll be staying at Ebbio, a restored 13th century farm and beautiful, intimate farmhouse in the hills of Tuscany.
Our boutique accommodation offers a truly unique experience. Nestled inside an evergreen forest, Ebbio sits on an extinct volcano that was sacred to the Etruscans, and overlooks the medieval walled town of Monteriggioni.
Step into the country ways of old Italy where olive trees, fruits, vegetables and herbs are grown organically and used to prepare the homemade meals. You’ll awaken to the scent of lavender wafting in through your window.
Nearby there are quaint Tuscan villages to explore and immerse yourself in. You’re free to walk the farm, get your hands in the dirt, swim or lounge by the pool – or simply sit and read or journal, listening to the wind caressing the olive tree leaves.
Pay-in-full and monthly payment plans available.
Rooms will be shared between two people. Each person will have their own single or double bed. Most rooms have private baths. Room and bathroom choices are first come, first serve.
Single rooms are available, however there is an additional cost and they are very limited. If you desire a single room, please reach out to me directly and inquire about availability.
If you are willing to share a triple room, there is an additional discount available.
If you don’t have a friend or roommate that you’re traveling with, we can help pair you with someone. Many women travel solo to our retreats.

"This retreat really invited a lot of softness into my life. It reminded me of my need to be in community with women, to be seen in my softness and in my play. I was able to drop into my pleasure and body so much more easily in a supportive environment where it's being mirrored around me in such compassionate open ways. It was also just fun, having permission to just be weird. It's the most in my body I’ve felt in a long time."
We’ll wake to the sounds of the breeze through the olive leaves and the scent of lavender fields in bloom. Bask in the morning light streaming into your room and remember, there's no rush.
Your morning is your own. Take a walk amongst the gardens and the forest. Have a swim in the pool. Find a sunny spot to sit and journal. Or take your coffee and head back up to your room to cozy in bed. A light breakfast with coffee and tea will be served for you to take as you wish.
Later in the morning we'll gather in our gorgeous practice space for gentle movement, singing and sharing. Then move into Somatic Sessions in support of your nervous system, heart, sensuality and expression.
Ready for nourishment, we'll gather for a hearty brunch under the pergola overlooking the rolling hills. After brunch you are free for several hours to do as you wish. Find the perfect spot and take a nap or read a book. Do some writing or painting. Enjoy a long and winding conversation as you sunbathe by the pool. Or, receive specialized hands-on somatic sessions. Whatever calls to you.
Late afternoon we'll gather for Connection & Creativity-- one of the favorite parts of many past participants. This might include making something with your hands, creative writing, self-photography, ritual or sacred theater.
A relaxed, regenerative dinner outside as the sky begins its sunset show will leave you a well-fed woman.
We’ll close each day together with music, dance, or gathered around the fire and , once back in your room, your own simple ritual of sacredness with your own body...a remembering of just how wild and sacred you are and an invitation into deep rest.

Through our practice, play and ritual together you'll receive:
An experience of "okayness" and aliveness on a body-level through connection with yourself, others and nature. It's this aliveness, which goes far beyond "self-care", that you're starved for in your daily life. You'll return home feeling like you can make things happen that seemed impossible before.
Simple, holistic pleasure tools + how to weave them together to soothe yourself --or to turn yourself on for intimacy with your partner or moments of creativity in your own work and life. No more sitting around waiting to feel desire or inspiration! You are the source of your own turn-on and you'll return home knowing exactly what that means and how that works.
New ways of relating to ALL of your emotions, so that they fuel you rather than overtaking you, draining you or making you sick. And creative, playful ways to express yourself. (Get ready to feel more met in your relationship and life when you lean less on over-explaining and more on initiating and embodying what you want.)
Clarity around your own truth. Clarity around where you're being called to make some changes in your life. Clarity around what feeds you and what does not.
A REMEMBERING, IMPRINTED INTO YOUR BODY AND HEART, OF JUST HOW WILD, MAGICAL AND SACRED YOU ARE.
Space is limited. To reserve your spot, reach out at kendra@kendracover.com

"I feel more alive. I was reminded how it feels to have aliveness flowing freely through my body. After being held so deliciously, I feel a true confidence I will be able to curate my life to feel as luscious and reciprocal as retreat feels to my system. Of course it will look different but I can feel the blueprint in my body.”

"This experience allowed me to inhabit my body and intimacy in a way that did not seem possible before."
Since the beginning of time, humans have healed and made sense of themselves and the world around them by coming together through movement, ritual, art and play.
You and your relationship to your body, to your sensuality and sexuality, to how you give and receive love, to what and how you allow yourself to express -- they are no different.
Come create new blueprints of what's possible in a group of women that will say "hell yes!" to you again and again.
" I will always remember the thrill of watching one of the women come alive as a warrior and the rest of us equally coming alive watching her! I was happily surprised to feel very comfortable in this nurturing circle of women. It felt like a magical, sacred cocoon, and that sense of belonging is a keepsake that I will treasure for a very long time. I learned that ritual and ceremony are really invigorating and special experiences for me."
