The Winning Edge Mum & Daughter (Son) Dance Retreats
Two carefully curated retreat experiences designed to support dancers and their mums, through connection, positivity, confidence, and dance.
Choose the retreat that best suits your family and timing in 2026.
One vision. Two retreat experiences.
Each Winning Edge retreat is intentionally designed to create space for growth off the stage.
While every retreat shares the same core philosophy, each experience has its own timing, rhythm, and focus.
This allows families to choose what best suits their season, schedule, and dance goals.
Both retreats:
Are held at Wybalena Organic Farm, Byron Bay
Include transport, meals, and accommodation, limited in numbers to protect the experience
and are designed specifically for mums and dancers.

We had the best time at the retreat. It was so special to share something like this with my girls. I absolutely loved watching our dancers grow from strength to strength....

What an experience, never laughed so much as a mum but never loved so much as a dancer!

This was seriously the most incredible experience. Bonded over laughs and cried with new friends for life (both mum and dancer). Highly recommend for anyone on tne fence.
