Meet your host
VICTORIA
A woman of many talents, Victoria hails from a long lineage of musicians and artists. Captivating audiences since the tender age of sixteen, Victoria has graced stages around the world singing in front of thousands of people.
Notable performances include singing alongside renowned musicians such as Stephanie Mills, Catherine Lara, Cheb Mami, Lonnie Plaxico, Sally Nyolo, Lââm or Tiken Jah Fakoly on TV shows, and during recording and live concerts, earning herself a spot at Warner Chappell Music Publishing as a singer-songwriter.
In 2008 Victoria released a jazz album with the legendary jazz musician Lonnie Plaxico and toured extensively for more than a decade in Asia, the Middle East, South America, and Europe with her jazz trio.
A true global citizen at heart, Victoria lived in ten different countries while being able to speak multiple languages. Currently residing in Phnom Penh, she provides independent vocal coaching to a select clientele who loves to sing.
This retreat is an opportunity for people to benefit from Victoria's long-life expertise — don't miss out!
ABOUT THE RETREAT
Join me at Le Relais de Chhlong (Kratie Province) in Cambodia for an unforgettable two-night Singing Retreat surrounded by nature's majesty.
As the dawn breaks over Chhlong, and we begin our journey together, you will experience a one-of-a-kind Voice and Body Awakening session with like-minded individuals. At mealtime, you can expect nothing less than some of the tastiest meals from the freshest local ingredients this vibrant country has to offer.
In your free time, you may choose to visit the local market, kayak around nearby locations or simply relax by the pool while making new friends and sipping on tasty cocktails. Our retreat will center around three hours of group singing per day, where we will open up our voices, learn new techniques, and sing together beautiful songs with confidence in a safe environment. Join this unique gathering of kindred spirits who share your passion for self-expression, singing, and unlock your true potential in an inspiring, nurturing atmosphere.
WHAT TO EXPECT
A fantastic weekend of singing!
You'll be enveloped in a cozy and friendly environment, full of laughter and good vibes. This Singing Retreat offers you the perfect chance to kick back and relax, away from the hustle and bustle of Phnom Penh. During your free time, why not take a dip in the pool or soak up some sun while sipping on a refreshing drink. Make new connections with open-minded individuals in the tranquil setting of an exquisite estate, nestled among nature's beauty.

MORNING GUIDED
MEDITATION
Through the Morning Guided Meditation, Victoria will guide you through an introspective and revitalizing session at dawn. You'll be encouraged to immerse your senses in the transformative aura of the morning — observing the emergence of daylight, savoring the crisp morning air, and tuning into nature's transition into a new day. This meditation aims to awaken your own internal rhythms, priming you for the singing session ahead. Regardless of your previous experience with meditation, Victoria's goal is to help you start your day of singing feeling invigorated, in harmony, and deeply connected to the natural world around you.

THE
PLACE
LE RELAIS DE CHHLONG
100 Years of Heritage
Gateway to Northeast Cambodia, Le Relais de Chhlong is a symbol of the country's extensive past. The bright, colonnaded yellow villa was brought back to life in 2017 and originally built in 1916 as an opulent home for a prosperous Chinese-Khmer timber merchant. Then, starting in 1940 it served as a residence for the French governor.
From the mini teak plantation in front of this hidden retreat to its exquisite garden with century-old rubber trees and period-styled interior, this iconic sanctuary exudes a sense of authenticity combined with subtle French sophistication. At Le Relais de Chhlong, you will embark on a trip through time and into timeless Cambodia.
