You could spend another weekend catching up on emails and calling it rest.
Or you could spend it moving your body, using your voice, eating well and sitting in a room full of women who are done pretending everything is fine.
Low lights. Bare feet. Honest movement. Conversations that do not skate around the edges.
This is the Change Making Women's Circle with Gina Chick, unfolding at Esther Lane in Surry Hills across one night and two full days, with a final session outdoors where things tend to land more clearly.
What This Weekend Is
This is a full weekend led by Gina Chick for women who are ready to reconnect with their bodies, instincts and each other.
Across Friday night, Saturday and Sunday, Gina draws on her long embodied practice in 5Rhythms movement, wilderness connection and rite of passage work to guide the group into presence, intuitive voice activation, creative flow and grounded sisterhood.
The structure is intentional. Space to move. Space to breathe. Space to make sense of what you are carrying so you can step back into the world with more clarity and less noise.
Sisterhood Without The Soft Focus
This weekend is built around sisterhood. Not the matching outfits version. The earned kind.
The kind that forms when women move, eat, laugh and speak honestly together for long enough that the armour drops. The kind that reminds you that you are not carrying everything alone, even if you are very good at doing exactly that.
It is steady. Grounded. Occasionally irreverent. And quietly powerful.
What You’ll Be Working With
Expect work with voice, boundaries, embodiment and creativity.
Finding your instinctive voice.
Learning to say no and stop leaking energy.
Exploring vitality, sexuality and creative expression.
Letting go of what stands in the way of full expression.
There is movement. There is ritual. There is reflective dialogue. There is laughter that arrives without being scheduled.
Both tender and fierce parts are welcome here. They tend to work better as allies.

About Gina Chick
Gina Chick is an author, musician, wilderness mentor and facilitator known for her work in nature connection and embodied practice.
She won the inaugural season of Alone Australia after surviving 67 days solo in the Tasmanian wilderness, relying on instinct, presence and deep relationship with the land rather than force.
Gina is the author of We Are The Stars and leads rewilding programs, monthly 5Rhythms sessions in Sydney, and community based music and movement work across Australia.
Her facilitation style is grounded, warm and direct. Nothing ornamental. Everything lived.

The BioHax Take
This is not a passive wellness weekend and it is not a motivational seminar.
It is for women who already know how to function and are tired of doing it disconnected from their bodies and instincts.
If you want silence, go bush.
If you want performance, book a conference.
If you want grounded sisterhood, honest movement and work that actually lands, this is where to spend the weekend.
