ΣΥΝΚΙΝΗΣΗ: ΣΑΒΒΑΤΟΚΥΡΙΑΚΟ & ΚΑΘΑΡΗ ΔΕΥΤΕΡΑ ΣΤΗΝ ΑΙΓΙΝΑ
Στα ελληνικά και αγγλικά
Σώμα, Ψυχή, Πνεύμα
Ανοίγοντας χώρους για βαθύτερη ανθρώπινη διασύνδεση, μέσα από σωματικές πρακτικές και χορό.
Τρεις μέρες γεμάτες κίνηση και χορό. Ελάτε να εμβαθύνουμε τη σύνδεσή μας με τον εαυτό μας, τους άλλους και τη φύση, εξερευνώντας το σώμα μας, τον εσωτερικό μας κόσμο και εκφράζοντας τον μέσα από τη κίνηση. Μέσω τεχνικών χορευτικού αυτοσχεδιασμού όπως το Underscore και το Authentic Movement, θα καλλιεργήσουμε την επίγνωση των εσωτερικών μας καταστάσεων, θα εμβαθύνουμε στην παρούσα στιγμή και θα διερευνήσουμε τη βαθύτερη ανθρώπινη διασύνδεση μας. Προετοιμαστείτε για χορό, παιχνίδι και δημιουργική εξερεύνηση! Για να γιορτάσουμε την Καθαρή Δευτέρα και την άφιξη της Άνοιξης, θα μαζευτούμε το βράδυ της Κυριακής γύρω από μια φωτιά και τη Δευτέρα θα απολαύσουμε μια πεζοπορία στη φύση, συνοδευόμενη από πικνίκ.
Για όποιον αγαπά την κίνηση και επιθυμεί ένα βαθύτερο ταξίδι στο σώμα & τα μονοπάτια έκφρασής που προσφέρει.

When Breath Becomes Art
In Greek and translated to English-speaking participants
Yoga & Art Retreat στην Αίγινα
Ένα δάσος για να περπατήσεις αργά
με τα πέλματα γυμνά ,
μια θάλασσα για να παραδοθείς στη φύση.
Μία πρόσκληση
για σένα που η πόλη σε σκληραίνει,
και νιώθεις την ανάγκη να μαλακώσεις,
σ´ένα κήπο όπου η σιωπή και το φως πλέκουν όνειρα
εκεί που η ανάσα γίνεται τέχνη
και το σώμα ακολουθεί τον ρυθμό της καρδιάς.
Τέσσερις μέρες επιστροφής στην απλότητα,
στην αυθεντικότητα,
σε ό,τι μένει καθαρό και αληθινό,
σαν ένα λευκό βότσαλο σμιλεμένο από το κύμα.
Yoga & Art Retreat in Aegina
For you who long for a forest to walk barefoot,
a sea to surrender your senses to nature,
for you whom the city has hardened
and who now seek to soften.
We invite you to a garden full of light and silence,
where breath becomes art
and the body moves to the rhythm of the heart.
Four days dedicated to returning
to simplicity,
to authenticity,
to what remains true and clear—
like a white pebble shaped and smooth by the wave.

EMBODIED SOUL-SOULFUL BODY
In English
Embodied Soul - Soulful Body is a residential retreat specifically designed for therapists. The aim of this retreat is to provide nurturing and resourcing (for both body and soul) for those in 'helping professions' - who spend most of their time caring for others.
We will be connecting to body, mind, heart and soul through movement, embodiment, meditation, sound and voice work, active imagination and visualisation, ritual, creative arts, and journaling.
We will explore what it means to be fully awake to our innate BodySoul wisdom and our life force and how to start moving from a 'survival mode' into creativity, flow and thriving. All of the practices offered on this retreat are designed to help us re-connect with our authentic Soul/Self.
