The Beach Retreat
Skagen 2024
Connect your LOVE
Connect your LIGHT
Come to Skagen
with us
We are so incredibly excited to invite you to our third event together in Denmark and our second multi day retreat. Last year's retreat was such a profound experience for both us and our participants that we just HAD to do one more. We have picked a venue very dear to Gitte's heart and a place that has come to mean a lot to Paul.
Save the dates:
October 2nd-6th 2024
Let's go for a walk on the beach and talk about our dreams for the world. What is your dream?
These huge smiles gave us the answer...
Sitting at Skagen Fiskerestaurant in the fall of 2023 preparing for our 2023 retreat, Gitte told Paul a secret. "I have always wanted to do a retreat in Skagen", she said. "Why don't we do one together", Paul answered. We looked at each other and a huge smile on both our faces gave us the answer we needed.
We went back to Copenhagen and after hosting our Forest CO+Creation retreat 2023 in Raadvad, we knew we had to do another retreat together. As we searched for venues near Copenhagen, Skagen kept calling our names. One day on a call, Paul said to Gitte: "I have the feeling, that we need to do our Skagen retreat already next year".
So here we are with a huge invitation to come join us in magical Skagen.
So much energetic power!
Two oceans meet!
When Paul and Cori heard about how TWO OCEANS MEET in Grenen and collide with their opposite currents it was hard for them to comprehend. Standing on the beach shoeless in this MAGICAL place at the tip of Europe was one of the most beautiful experiences to date!
This is a magical powerful location. Just imagine for a moment all of us standing in this water together feeling the ocean currents coming into focus – the energies uniting and expanding with us all together as ONE.
We can’t wait to experience this POWERFUL UNIFYING ENERGY FIELD ALL TOGETHER WITH THOSE COMING TO OUR CO+CREATION SKAGEN BEACH RETREAT!
This is going to be a moment and an experience you will remember forever. And if we’re truly blessed, we will see some baby seals sunbathing on the beach!
Skagen is famous for a very special light and has attracted painters for centuries. What happens when a group of powerful lights meet that light? Are you as curious as us to find out?
Better Together
We love to meet you online, but long to meet you in person. Retreats to us are like magical portals to the next level in life. We met each other at a retreat in Spain and have grown a beautiful friendship that now also allow us to share our friendship with you.
When you gather such powerful beautiful people in a room as we are blessed to be around, something truly profound is about to take place. The only way to find out what it is - is to show up. Take a leap of faith. Trust your inner guidance and book your tickets.
New friendship awaits those who say YES! There are so many conversations to have, reflections to make, creativity to let out and smiles and laughter to share.
We hope to see you!
A million reasons to
join us....
Hear why you should join us from last year's participants!
Get a laser sharp vision of your dream and find your next step...
Life can be messy. Take some focus time to become crystal clear on all of your desires. You can have all of your dreams come true when you become crystal clear.
Her favourite place on earth
A creative realm
For Gitte Skagen feels like home. Both sides of her family are from Skagen and Gitte spent all of her summers in this amazing town up north. When she was 10 years old her parents bought one of the old yellow iconic summer houses from 1887.
This house is where Gitte writes all of her books. When you come, she will take us to her favourite beach and tell us about the creative source of this amazing creative realm.
You are invited to find your creative inner child and create magic with us.
Our Co+Creative
Keynote speakers
We are extremely excited, so grateful, and intensely proud to present our Co+creative keynote speakers at our retreat this year. These three women are in each their own sovereign beings wisdom seekers, spiritual channels, profound healers, light bearers, soul keepers, female powerhouses, and creative innovators.
Thursday:
CHRISTINA FRITH
SINGER /
SONGWRITER
Within the realm of all that we do, Presence abides. It brings light where we put our attention. It is a constant river flowing. Its fullness cushions pain and worry. Its vastness gives way to creative flow and freedom. To be able to step into Presence with an abiding sense of joy and curiosity is a treasured gift. Here, the songs of the spirit are born. Here, the creative impulse informs us. Let us play with practicing Presence, together.
Friday:
IVA NASR
MENTOR/
STORYTELLER
Are miracles possible with choice, alignment, focus, and action? Yes! Let us transform to a steadfast moment of wonder and love. Join Iva at the hotel on Friday after the “Freedom Walk for Love” on the beach.
Saturday:
DEBORAH JACKSON
CEREMONIALIST/
FACILITATOR
Debbie creates sacred space to support the soul's journey. Together we will celebrate the light that each of us brings to the world. We will reflect and share the clarity and grace realised during the retreat through introspection, connection and honouring the transformative moments of our journey.
This retreat is all about the power of CO+CREATION and YOU

CO+Creation Retreat
We have a cool program ready for you and we want to share the stage with you.
Come spend 5 magical days with us to discover or rediscover your creative path. We invite you to find your inner child and become playful with your creativity again.
Having spent many years writing books and music we have discovered how to fuel our creativity and how to co+create with the universe. We will teach you different creative methods and lead you into your creative source in nature.
One of the BIG take aways from both our one day workshop in Copenhagen in 2022 and our 2023 Forest retreat was the beauty and power in co+creating the retreat with our amazing participants. This time we are going to level up even more making this an experience with the power of the water, the stars, the beaches, and all of you in this magical place on Earth.
In the program above you will see that we have booked you in for a vision workshop. We invite you to share your visions with us in a 10-minute presentation.
We have also reserved three spots for you to become the teacher. Last year our participants offered various treats for us that made a long-lasting impression on us. We had a powerful gong shower, a full moon ritual, a deep yoga dive, storytelling, soul work to name some of the special events. This year we have three CO+CREATIVE sessions of 1 hour.
If you feel in your heart a desire to take the stage and share your special gifts with us, write us an application below. We will let you know in good time if you have been chosen to share with us. Please don't be shy. In the afternoons you have time to work on your visions in small groups or individually. You will also see time slots when you will have the opportunity to discuss your visions or projects with Paul and Gitte individually. These 1:1 sessions were in high demand last year, so we have put in more time for you this year and will have a schedule ready.

Venue:
Skagen Harbour Hotel
When deciding on Skagen for our next retreat the hotel was an easy choice. “Skagen Harbour Hotel” is a super cool boutique hotel owned and operated by both Gitte's famous cousin, celebrity chef, Jesper Carl Winter and his amazing hotelier wife Didde Gravesen Winter.
Aside from their great hospitality, they have offered us:
- Three different types of accommodation at a special rate!
- A beautiful meeting space for our group gatherings
- A delicious breakfast buffet each day. The bread comes from Jesper's FAMOUS bakery around the corner. They have homemade jam, eggs, yoghurt, and every kind of DANISH pastry you could dream of.
- Sheets, towels, and cleaning.
You can book a single room, a double room, or a room in a shared apartment to your liking. If you choose to stay at one of the apartments, you'll have kitchen facilities. Otherwise, the town is full of restaurants and take away.
WHAT DID OUR PARTICIPANTS SAY?
Invaluable support
"It is about stretching and expanding consciousness and love with likeminded wonderful people from around the globe. I loved the retreat and would definitely like to do it again. Paul and Gitte are
creating something like a family of high spirited lightworkers to help heal the world. The monthly
gatherings gave me invaluable strength and support.”

HOPE & FAITH
“To participate in events and retreats arranged by Gitte and Paul is like floating in the sky or lying on green grass - it is such a joyful and peaceful experience.
In this setting you are being encouraged and challenged to reach and stretch yourself, to feel the light and the love.
I can with my whole heart recommend that you join Gitte and Paul.”

The way you both bravely and authentically leaned
into creating this, trusting the process for it all to come together for us.”
Participant
See you at the breakfast buffet
I, Gitte, have just spent my Easter holiday at our venue hotel in Skagen and couldn't help but imagine us all in the breakfast room meeting up for another high frequency day in the city with the most amazing light. I saw your faces across the breakfast buffet and couldn't help but smile.
Skagen has for good reason attracted creators, artists, poets, writers for centuries due to the special light. Hans Christian Andersen came to write, and we will go to the hotel, he liked to stay at.
Krøyer, Ancher and Drachmann came to paint and both female and male artists painted the amazing beaches and the scenery in Skagen. We will go to Skagen Museum and get inspired. And we will of course go to the beaches that mean so much to me.
Can you imagine us generating a HUGE light from within and letting it blend into that AMAZING light from above. The light is so special in Skagen as two huge oceans meet and create this intense energy.
Come to Skagen and wish upon the stars. Magic happens in Skagen when you open your HEART!
