NESSI GOMES
Concert
Born on the tiny Island of Guernsey to a Portuguese family, Gomes channels influences from both sides of her ethnicity, blending the essence of the traditional, emotional and ‘larger than life’ Fado folk music with British progressive modern inspiration.
Diamonds & Demons is the debut album by musician Nessi Gomes, a composer and lyricist of rare invention and beauty. Ensuing tales of darkness and light allow a deeper exploration of the human condition, psyche, collective fears and torments. Nessi and her producer Duncan Bridgeman ('1 Giant Leap’) together dug an uncharted tunnel into the artist's turbulent heart and soul. The album was recorded following a successful fundraising campaign in April 2015 during which more than $50,000 was raised. Nessi toured in the wake of the campaign, playing in 25 European countries in the last 6 years including major festivals in Europe.
Her debit album reveals an authentic and heartfelt search for light, depth, hope and truth; an artistic quest for love and trust. A series of intricately detailed, hauntingly atmospheric and lushly textured Avant-ballads. Here is a musician whose work obliquely references her travails and nods to Björk and Kate Bush but is uniquely her own, with Portuguese inflections and intimations of hope and dread.

TANYA & RIKA
Sound & Touch
"Sound & Touch" opens a space for you to immerse yourself into the world of Sound and Touch.
Together we will create a space where you have the opportunity to experience for yourself the profound effect that the combination of sound and touch has on body, mind and soul. Sound is a powerful tool that has a very specific effect on our body and mind.
Working with sound is based on the concept of resonance frequency healing, which means that the natural and healthy vibration is restored in our body. In meditation, it soothes our Monkey Mind and provides something for our mind to focus on, similar to chanting mantra. It helps us to move more easily and quickly into other levels of consciousness where we can relax and draw new energy and creativity.
Touch is nourishment. We need touch to live, because it is an elementary need of us humans. Scientific studies have shown that beneficial touch strengthens our immune system, regulates our nervous system as well as our emotions, and also releases happiness bonding hormones. Touch is the most important type of human connection and it makes us happy.
Let Tanya and her sounds of crystal singing bowls and other instruments gently envelop you and Rika nourish you with her mindful art of touch.

NESSI GOMES
Vocal Odyssey
Vocal Odyssey is a deep yet playful self-inquiry journey of discovery into the mystery and healing forces of our most intimate musical instrument – our voice.
The process aims to pierce through the voices in our heads and to open a door for a new relationship between us and the transformative quality of our vocal expression. To bring us a bit closer to our beautiful, raw, wild and imperfect human flow.
The voice is our bridge to something bigger than ourselves; it is our connection to the prayer we carry. In this group we will reconnect to the simple and natural way of expressing our authentic voice beyond judgments, painful beliefs and limiting conditionings.
Born on the tiny Island of Guernsey to a Portuguese family, Singer-Songwriter Nessi Gomes channels influences from both sides of her ethnicity, blending the essence of the traditional, emotional and ‘larger than life’ Fado folk music with British progressive modern inspiration.

OUR ECHO
The Shadow Dancer- The Path from Trauma to Tantra
This workshop is a space for integrating and learning to dance with the shadow. We will within our time together first descend into the body to meet the breath, to meet any pain, grief, fear or mystery that lies in the exiled aspects of self. We will bring them into the space and give them the nurturance and support they need to feel seen, acknowledged and embodied. And most importantly we will dance, we will dance with our whole selves, all aspects. It will be cathartic, melodic, deep, ugly and raw.
Our Echo, Giesel, has been a seeker of sorts my entire life. She has spent countless years following an intuition somewhere deeply embedded within her that ushered her forward. Her path was messy, unclear, and quite troubled. Through trial and error and a well of suffering, angst, and self-pity, she had a few wake-up calls that brought her out of her victimization and into conscious choiceful living. She cannot change the past. She did not know what she know now, about herself, about relating, about accountability and about curiosity. What she can do is have compassion, empathy and space for the parts of her that in their deep grief burned bridges and connections. What she can do now is slow down and feel into what she is needing at any given moment to feel safe so that she may not project her fears onto the world around her. Here she is on the other side of her victimization with an objective in this life to help others come out of theirs. May she be a resource, a tool, a guide to assisting others to come back home to themselves, to their center, to their truth, to love over illusion.
LARISSA DOMIN
The Temple of the Pristess

We pray and we dance, we evoke and we embody, in a modern version of the traditions of the priestesses before us. We are the priestesses of this time. This is our temple.

Lichtatmung®
Lichtatmung® by Vidya and Klaus C. Ulbricht is a simple, undogmatic and very effective Conscious Breathwork format in which intense trance breathing and modern energy therapy merge.

In the breath-induced trance, one's own potentials can be recognized, experiences integrated, and old programs dissolved. Personal strength and emotional liberation can be experienced and perceived as a deep connection with oneself, nature, and the universal whole. A feeling of relief, liberation, bliss, unity, and connectedness can arise. Generally, Lichtatmung is suited for everybody.

NETANEL GOLDBERG
Men circle - I see you
We will open a space where we will allow stories from our lives to gain visibility and recognition. The space will be based on agreements from the North American listening circle. A place that enables a new kind of listening - listening through the heart, speaking from the heart, telling our authentic personal story from a place without consequences, a place that takes full responsibility for our life experiences. We will work with materials of life. Stories in our lives that have not received visibility and recognition. We will open the gates of vulnerability in a soft and present way that creates closeness, we will allow room for all emotions to express themselves. We can forgive, we can love, we can get closer to each other and to ourselves a little more.

ANVA GOLDBERG
Natural Movements
Movement as a bride to bonding Deep-Inner Journeys with Anva Goldberg. This journey is an intimate meeting with your own movement, with your expressive, wise body. It is a deep study where the wisdom of the body is the guide. All we have to do is surrender and dance from a space of un-knowing & new listening. We will move alone, together, will embrace & be embraced, at times having a glimpse into the feeling of bonding & oneness. Insights arise, emotions can float. We dance all that is alive in us in the present moment. You are invited to dive into your inner fountains which awaken hearts and connect you to your inner essence, to the nature in you.
For anyone who wants to experience intimacy with life through movement. This journey is suitable for all genders ages 18 - 70+
Anva comes from the world of healing, dance & art. Natural movement was born from desire that came to her from a lot of physical pain that she suffered in the first 3 years of her life. It created disconnection with her own body & soul. Then the desire to heal has led her to a movement that creates bonding between them. Anva met spiritual dance teachers. She went into deep studies where we danced every step of life (dancing our biography). She continued to explore with a group of women movement as reflection of life. She looks at nature and around her, inside her, from curiosity to meet herself, meet people, understand the material of life through the body. Anva lives in Israel with her partner and beloved Netanel.

SOPHIA MICHALOPOULOU
Future Families
Birth impacts everyone because we’ve all been born. Our Birth Story is our Birthright and contains the blueprint for our future engagement with Life. Our Birth Story is a foundational piece of the puzzle of becoming who we are. By remembering our birth stories we embody more of our unique and authentic essence. How we ourselves experience our birth journeys from conception to birth will, in turn, influence the way we birth and parent our future babies.
How you prepare for the future conception of your baby, your pregnancy and birth will impact your baby’s future as well as all of our futures as family, friends and communities. What are the needs of future babies and how can you best prepare yourself for them? We can contribute to the future well-being of our planet and our humanity by creating new paradigms at birth.
This workshop is for you if you might be a future parent, a sister or a brother, an auntie or an uncle. All are welcome if you feel the call, it takes a community to raise a child after all. We are creating this new Earth together.
Sophia is an aquatic perinatal therapist, a newborn and baby swimming educator as well as a pregnancy and birth doula. By remembering her own birth journey while immersed in warm water Sophia began to see birth from a baby’s perspective. She is a founding member of the Pregnancy and Birth Network of Kerkyra and is working towards establishing natural out-of-hospital births as a safe and desirable option on the island of Corfu.
Please come dressed to move freely, bring your willingness to dive deep within, any questions, or fears you wish addressed and perhaps a comforting item like a pillow or a scarf.
This workshop will take place on land.

IGNATIANA
Conscious Sexuality
Sexuality does not equal Sex!: an interactive Talk about Conscious Sexuality
Sexuality does not equal sex
Aliveness does not equal body
Presence does not equal attention
Meditation does not equal concentration
What truly connects us with ourselves is increased Sensitivity and not Intensity!
Are we truly here?
Are we in these bodies?
Are we in our emotions?
Are we We?
Where do we go when we run away?
Where do we come back?
The energy is neutral. It doesn’t priorities our Pain Bodies or Pleasure Bodies, but the most walked energetic Paths do that. Yes... we are here to recognise that we are alive! No more, no less. Through everything we experience, the soul just wants to be conscious of it’s own existence... This is an open Talk, following the energy, the curiosity and maybe the courage. We might have questions, where answers are to be found...
Ignatiana is a seeker, like everyone else. Born with the ability to communicate and travel on the other side, she’s enjoying building bridges between “here” and “there” her whole life. Diving deep for more than 30 years into the practice of meditation / ancient yoga / spiritual psychology / trauma integration / conscious sexuality... she’s enjoying integrating ancient wisdom into daily life.
In the end is just about contemplating life to its fullest! “What do you do right before “self-realisation”?
....Nothing!!! ”
PARASKEVI TERZI
Opening ceremony with traditional Greek dance & music
Many traditional folk dances of Greece are remainings of older, ancient ceremonial dances and as in all ages and many cultures, dances were used to honour the divine, to heal , to establish and confirm the connection with the earth and with the community and to celebrate the initiation and transition rites . Together with Marlia Coeur , we will revisit the greek folk dances and music , tracing their connection with the land that they belong, so we can experience them as a source of knowledge , joy, grief and connection in a non-verbal frame.
Paraskevi Terzi is a greek dancer, artist, choreographer and teacher that has also studied History-Archaeology and introduction to Dance Therapy. She lives in Corfu. She has worked with kids and adults in Greece and in Germany. In Berlin she founded the dance collective Somanauts, where she introduced her method of dance as an evolutionary tool that connects dance with nature, its elemental forces and rythms. Her approach integrates tools gained by her extensive studies in various contemporary and traditional styles, as well as breath, sound and movement practices. Her work is influenced by cultures and ages where dances are used as an essential element of socialization, communication and transition from one stage of life to another.
