A SEVEN-DAY DOLPHIN JOURNEY · RED SEA, EGYPT
WITH AMY WILLERTON & ANNA KANYUK
SOUND · WATER · REMEMBRANCE
The Invitation
We arrive drawn by the pyramids, the stone, the ancient halls of Isis and Hathor. Something stirs, a memory we cannot quite name.
It is the waters that hold the Akasha, the living memory of all that has been. The temples were built to echo it. The sea still sings it.
For seven days on the open Red Sea, we swim among wild dolphins and let sound, salt and sun return us to who we were before we forgot.
Sisterhood
Two sisters on the path, bringing together everything we have learned about voice, body and the wild feminine, and offering it back to the sea.
How It Began
Amy and Anna were meditating by the sea when a crow landed on Amy’s head. She turned to Anna and said, “I think I want to go and spend some time with the dolphins.” Anna was not yet pregnant.
Many months later, with Anna nine months pregnant, the two woke in the middle of the night and decided to go and find the dolphins. They climbed into a taxi and drove four hours through the dark to reach the sea by sunrise. At the boat, the boatman asked Anna how many months pregnant she was. “Nine,” she said. He very nearly didn’t let them on.
Looking back, they were planting the seeds of something much larger: a quest guided by something far greater than themselves, by the dolphins themselves. They go with full reverence, in deep connection with Mother Nature.
Innocent joy. Play. — Amy & Anna
The Star Lineage
To the ancient Egyptians, Sirius was Sopdet, the star of Isis. Its rising at dawn heralded the flooding of the Nile, the return of the waters and the renewal of life.
Across many traditions the dolphins are remembered as part of that story: a star-connected lineage, keepers of the water and bridges between worlds.
Hathor, Lady of Turquoise, goddess of love, music, beauty and joy, lives in these waters too. Her colour is the colour of the reef. Her gifts are sensuality, pleasure and song.
We go to the sea to meet them, and in meeting them, to remember ourselves.
What The Dolphins Teach
Dolphins live in pleasure. They touch, they turn, they sing and they play, without shame and without agenda. In their presence the body softens and the heart opens.
This is the territory of oxytocin, the hormone of love: of bonding, of birth, of a mother and her child. This journey honours every way a woman gives life.
The Place
Far out in Egypt’s southern Red Sea lies Sataya Reef, a great horseshoe of coral rising from deep blue water. It is one of the few places on Earth where wild dolphins can be met in their natural home almost every day.
We live aboard a spacious 30-metre yacht, our floating temple for the week. There is no Wi-Fi at sea, only a deeper connection. Each day has its shape, with space left for the dolphins, the sun and the sea.

Your Guides
Amy Willerton
Chantress · Explorer · Ceremonialist · Mother
Amy is an explorer and adventurer at heart, part of the forefront of the consciousness movement. Her connection to the dolphins began before she was born, when her mother swam with them while pregnant with her. On this journey she brings the voice: chanting and song by day, and DJ sets on deck for nights under the stars.
Anna Kanyuk
Movement · Embodiment · Circle · Mother
Anna is the co-founder of TOPSTRETCHING®, with more than 36 studios worldwide, and host of Ladies Circles. Over the last few years she has been on a deep spiritual journey, sitting Vipassanas and dark retreats. On this journey she guides us back into the body, not as something to train, but as something to listen to.
Two women who take joy very seriously. And the dolphins bring the rest.
Who It Is For
This journey is for anyone longing to come home: to their body, to themselves, to nature and the water, and to simply have fun.
This will be a truly intimate group. Before anyone joins, we speak with each person ourselves, so that together we can gather a circle that serves the benefit of all. Every place, for everyone, is by application.
We also warmly welcome women who are expecting and would like to connect with the dolphins in the lead-up to birth, with the blessing of their midwife or doctor.
Comfort in the water is all that is needed.
BY APPLICATION ONLY
Water has memory. Sound has power.
Love is the frequency.
