A paradise-on-earth place. A Full Moon blue bliss week. A journey to the core of your being, exploring what brings you the greatest happiness and how to reside in there. We will learn & enjoy, enjoy & learn so we can actually reach the state of happiness by welcoming and accepting ourselves unconditionally as a unique and amazing being, every single second. We will practice Yoga, focusing on breath , we will boost our creativity with Impulse Dance and become one with the water in Floating Body. Fresh homemade vegan food, amazing beaches, divine sunsets, unspoiled nature and gentle sounds of the waves and the wind will embrace us
Unconditionally.
I will share with you the secrets of my own pathway and practice. Together, we will develop our senses to see beauty, to feel happiness, with attentiveness and joy! I will inspire you to re-discover your body & soul and to become creative researchers and defenders of your own beauty. We will be as creative as children, as unique as stars, as free as birds, as floating as leaves, as humble as flowers, as creative as human beings. And yes, the more we discover the miracle of our own self, the more we realize that we are at home. Our self is our primary home. As the Greek philosopher Plato said, recognizing beauty starts from within.
Everybody is welcome. I believe that every human can find a new way of living through mindful movement. In my retreats and teaching methods there are no boundaries of age, body form, nationality, identity.
