Full Week Retreat

This retreat is a chance to have a life changing experience and connect to ALL layers of your being.

When you allow yourself to move into deeper meditation and trance, you will return home…
deep within.

Kundalini

Chakra Journey

In this retreat you will make an inner journey, to energize different aspects of your being. Your path of discovery will be KUNDALINI, and you will activate each Chakra along the way. These daily trance dances will be embedded in a larger program of meditation-, body-, breath- and soundwork.

Profound Connection
with Essence, Source & Creativity!

This will connect you with who you really are, at a deeper level, and bring mental clarity, healing, creativity and growth!

Moments of silence, and time and space for yourself, are interspersed with group activities. We will work with:
