4-days Biodanza - New Year workshop at Dharma Mountain - Valdres, Norway
Yess! We have decided to organise this workshop also this year!
After 7 years we still love it!
And we know that many of you love it too :-)
Welcome to a 4 days Biodanza workshop at Dharma Mountain in Valdres, Norway.
from 18:00 Thursday 29 December 2016 until
approx 14.00 Sunday 1 January 2017
During the 4 days we will welcome both our uniqueness and active expression, as well as expanding our capacity of diving into the healing harmony of unity, of belonging, of melting and surrendering.
The perfectly balanced flow of yin and yang, together with a warm and connected heart, is what makes our lives flourish.
Through dance and human contact we open up to connect deeper with ourselves, with others and life in all its totality.
Every year the vivencias change. Together we create the journey. However, all the five lines in Biodanza (Vitality, Sexuality, Creativity, Affection and Transcendence) will be present. We will awaken all these aspects of our lives, and give them space to be lived at this transition into the New Year.
Let go of what you no longer need to carry and open up to the path of your heart!
And for those of you that have been there before: I can guarantee that the snake will be on the program also this year!
Where:
The retreat takes place in the middle of wild nature with mountains, rivers, trees, fresh air and clean snow.
We have again chosen the beautiful www.dharmamountain.com in Hedalen in Valdres as our venue for the retreat.
Here you will enjoy delicious food, hosted by warm and caring staff.
For the six last years, we have had a fantastic time at the Biodanza New Year retreat.
I am once again happy to invite new and old participants to this healing and joyful journey.
Come and celebrate life with us!
