YOGA.&.DANCE.
Stop functioning. Start feeling.
This retreat combines Yoga, Conscious Dance and Embodiment to create a mindful time out filled with movement, expression and conscious connection. For a few days, everyday life takes a back seat, creating space for what often gets lost in the daily routine: feeling the body, slowing down and rediscovering a sense of vitality.
Dynamic and gentle yoga practices alternate with Conscious Dance, free movement and Embodiment. Yoga brings grounding, clarity and conscious breathing, while dance invites emotions to move through the body and creates space to explore individual expression. It is not about performance or perfect movements, but about awareness, letting go and experiencing the moment.
Between sessions, there is plenty of time for wellness, nature, relaxation or connecting with the group. A retreat for everyone who wants to combine movement and relaxation, recharge their energy and reconnect with themselves.
“Don’t dance to look perfect. Dance to feel alive.”
Suitable for: All levels – no previous yoga or dance experience required.
RETREAT HOSTS: Sarah & Katherina
Sarah Kexel is a salsa teacher and Embodiment Coach. Dance has been part of her life for many years – from ballet, hip-hop and modern jazz to salsa, international competitions and shows. Today, she combines somatic bodywork, Conscious Dance, free movement and Latin rhythms. Her focus is not on perfect steps, but on body awareness, self-expression and the joy of movement.
Katherina Gstach is a yoga teacher who supports people in reconnecting with themselves through movement, breath and mindfulness. Her classes combine flowing yoga, conscious breathing, meditation and personal inspiration. She creates space for calm, body awareness and new perspectives – both on and beyond the yoga mat.
Together, Sarah & Katherina combine yoga and dance, stillness and expression, grounding and joy of life to create a retreat centred around personal experience.
