About the Event

Welcome to another Intimate Connection Day Retreat at Wandellust in Zurich. This month we open the space for intimacy through voice, dance and rituals.

Part 1: 13:00-14:00 

In part 1 we will arrive together as a group, in our hearts, minds and bodies as we warm-up, through songs, games and group sharings.

Part 2: 14:00-15:30

In part 2 we will begin our journey of intimacy as we work in partners and small groups to connect through dance, story telling and meditation. We will learn the meanings behind certain Mantra songs and embody their stories in our movements and voice as we sing and dance for each other. There will be a mixture of zouk, contact improvisation and singing.

- break - fruits and snacks provided

Part 3: 16:30-18:00

In part 3 we will learn to use connected breathwork while partner dancing and explore how this method of communication offers new possibilities for creative movements and partner intimacy in the dance. Within this workshop we will learn specific techniques and movements that we can implement withn our dancing to invite profound connection and trust.

Part 4: 18:00-19:00

In part 4 we will conclude the workshops with crystal bowl sound healing for further connection, integration and relaxation.

Part 5: 21:00-01:00

In part 5 we will open a sacred space for connection to our higher-selves through a traditional cacao ceremony and space social dancing. After this the evening is open to enjoy, time, space and movement together.

Team: Jonny, Adelina, Romy

Jonny - Jonny loves to create safe and powerfully-transcending spaces for people to break through their limitations and bring a fuller version of themselves to the world. His skill-set combines a mixture of classical yogic techniques for the heart, mind, body and tantric energy systems, as well as modern practices in embodiment, dance, music, mindfulness, breathwork. Jonny is a natural leader of groups and specialises in creating fun and honest spaces for authentic expression, growth and self-reflection.

Adelina - Lina's main focus is to create supportive and inspiring spaces for personal growth, healing and community.

She uses holistic methods from yoga, plantmedicine, shamanism and energy work and integrated-sound as well as the 4 elements as her guide. Let go, transform, draw strength and connect with the part where everyone finds their own personal depth. More about Lina: www.soulshineyoga.ch

Romy - Romy loves to create heart spaces with people and to linger in them through silence and sound. When pure love flows, healing transcends space and time. Just as the vibrations of the crystalbowls flow through us and are a wonderful support on our journey to ourselves. More about Romy: www.liebebefreit.ch

FAQ's:

What if I don't dance Zouk?

You are welcome to attend this workshop even if you have never danced Zouk before.

Can I come alone?

Yes you can come alone or with a partner/partners to this workshop.

Does the word intimate mean physical?

The use of the word intimacy is about the depth and clarity of connection with yourself, the people around you, the food you eat and the music you hear. There is no expectation of physical intimacy.

Do I need to sing?

Singing is a part of the schedule and helps to open the heart through inner-vibration. However most of the day is about movement and dance, and you're welcome to listen and enjoy the voices of others.
