The Recovery Retreat

The 5th Annual Model Recovery Retreat | March 27–29, 2026
The Model Recovery Retreat is a special annual gathering designed exclusively for anyone who has modeled in a Runway Show. This restorative weekend brings our community together in a peaceful, private setting where Models can connect, recharge, and access meaningful tools for healing and joy. Whether you’re joining us for the first time or returning for another unforgettable year, this retreat offers space to breathe, reflect, laugh, and build lifelong bonds.

Retreat At-A-Glance

📍 Location: Alnoba Retreat Center, Kensington, NH
📅 Dates: Friday, March 27 – Sunday, March 29
💖 Cost: Completely free for all Models
🌟 Priority: First-time attendees receive priority registration
🧘 Includes: Lodging, all meals, snacks, classes, workshops, and activities (except “add-on” spa treatments)
🚗 Travel: Models are responsible for getting to/from Southern NH

 

What to Expect
The retreat takes place on an expansive private wooded property in Southern New Hampshire, offering a peaceful backdrop for rest and connection. Six cozy cabins sit about a 20-minute walk or a 10-minute drive from the main campus, and all lodging is shared so that Models can build community and enjoy the weekend together. We’ll begin at 3:00 p.m. on Friday and wrap up at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday, spending most of our time on the main campus for sessions, meals, and activities. This year, we’ve intentionally woven in more downtime or those who want quiet moments—enjoying conversations in cabins, taking walks on the trails, or simply resting.
