Dancing Your Shadow
a 24-hours immersive workshop in movement, art, and nature.
Each of us carries a shadow — those parts that were once unseen, rejected, or forgotten. But the shadow is not only about fear or pain. It also holds our passion, intuition, wildness, unexpressed power, and creativity.
Shadow work is not about fixing yourself. It’s about returning to wholeness. It’s a path of gently meeting what has been hidden, through the body, through expression, through nature.
We invite you into an immersive space of embodied shadow exploration — through dance, creative practices, connection with the forest, and deep presence with yourself and others.
We will create a safe container — a space where you can feel, express, be silent, be messy, be real.
A space where nothing needs to be performed.
A space where everything you bring is welcome.
You don’t need to be “ready” — you just need to come as you are.

Who are we:
ANNA is a dedicated and intuitive guide in the fields of personal transformation, embodiment, and human connection. With a Master’s degree in Religion Studies from the University of Humanity and a Bachelor’s in Creative Dance and Developmental Movement, she brings a deep understanding of the body-mind-spirit connection to her work.
Her extensive training includes long-term programs in art therapy and healing pedagogy, as well as teacher trainings in contact improvisation, instant composition, and the International School of Temple Arts (ISTA). As a certified body therapist and passionate explorer of human relationships, Anna creates spaces where authentic expression, emotional healing, and embodied presence can flourish.
Through the alchemy of movement, embodied awareness, and deep inner inquiry, Anna invites participants to explore the hidden layers of self, transforming shadow into insight and creative power. Her work gently guides others toward reconnecting with their inner truth and cultivating conscious, embodied relationships—with themselves and the world around them.
LIESBETH is a dance therapist with a deep passion for guiding people toward the pleasure and freedom of movement. She studied the Life Art Process—a body-based creative practice developed by Anna and Daria Halprin that blends movement, visual art, and expressive voice as tools for personal insight and transformation.
With over 13 years of experience in Contact Improvisation, she brings a rich and intuitive approach to embodiment and creative expression. Liesbeth currently works at Het Gielsbos, supporting individuals with severe mental and physical challenges through therapeutic dance.
Her commitment to making dance accessible led her to open her own studio and launch her first community event, Iedereen kan dansen (“Everyone Can Dance”).
At this weekend of shadow work, she invites participants to meet themselves in motion—with honesty, presence, and a sense of play.
