Movement Social | Fall Gathering

Reset and revitalize your energy during this four-day and three-night all-inclusive gathering in the mountains of South Central Pennsylvania during peak foliage season.

We will recharge and move thoughtfully in curated sessions that use Pilates, Somatic Movement, and Functional Mobility to help organize our bodies and minds. Opportunities to reset with this energy run abound with access to nature trails, natural springs, and star-filled skies. Creative release is encouraged in campfire drawing sessions and an improv workshop.

Ideal for the explorer seeking mindful inspiration and body nourishment.

KIT AND SHACOTTHA

This is Kit and Shacottha's first Movement Social Gathering; however, it is not their first guided experience as a team. Having worked together as theater professionals in NYC, Kit and Shacottha often provided safe spaces for people to laugh and embrace the ridiculous in joint performance projects. Beyond theater and the fine arts, Kit has worked as a movement professional for over 11 years, teaching Pilates, bodyART, and Yoga in studios across the five boroughs and now in her studio in Central, PA.

Shacottha has performed internationally with her critically acclaimed solo improv show and taught storytelling and improv workshops to corporations and organizations focused on mental health. She is also a Boundaries Coach who helps women center themselves creatively and professionally.

Through their different but synchronistic approaches to embodying the physical self, Kit and Shacottha have created an experience that supports joy in movement, acceptance of the present, and tools for channeling insights productively.

Wellness with Nature

Resting on 150 acres, River Mountain is bordered by Sweet Root Creek, Warrior Ridge and Tussey Mountain. River Mountain's stunning spaces are designed for reflection, mindfulness, and good vibrations on your self-care journey. Creekside yoga platforms, a restored barn turned wellness space, and the calm of nature make this the ideal destination for peace and wellness.

Located just a few hours from D.C., Baltimore, and Pittsburgh, in the mountains of Pennsylvania, River Mountain is remote yet easy to access.

History

Warrior Path

Running parallel to River Mountain's eastern ridge is Warriors Path, the great Iroquois Indian highway from Six Nations country, New York, to the Catawba country in the Carolinas. The historic path along Sweet Root Creek was one of the longest and most heavily traveled land routes in eastern North America, connecting Indigenous peoples over hundreds of miles.

The Underground Railroad

Black Valley was an active route along the Underground Railroad. Local histories principally credit four, free black residents with leading the aid network in this area: Rev. John Fidler, Elias Rouse, Joseph Crawley, and James Graham. Just to the south of the River Mountain property are 13 unmarked graves of enslaved people who died traveling the route to freedom.
