Lisa, from Bold and Boundless Yoga & Lenka, present a very special fusion of 'Contact Beyond Contact' Dance & Kirtan. A unique invitation to explore the connection to self & others on a deeper & more conscious level – using healing dance, voice, stillness & sound.
What to expect: Guided Dance Journey - Kirtan / Mantra – Body Wisdom - Authentic Expression - Intuitive movement – Sound Meditation & Voice Activation - Community - Access to your own deeper wisdom - Sharing Circle
This afternoon is an invitation to connect deeper to presence whilst uniting body, mind, heart & spirit through a unique blend of conscious dance & sacred mantra.
Contact Beyond Contact (CBC) is a dance and healing practice that integrates Authentic Movement (AM), Contact Improvisation (CI) and Passing Through (PT) with profound practices of qigong, yoga, healing modalities and energy work, mindfulness and leadership skills, somatics, and principles of behaviorism, as well as the philosophies of Buddhism and Taoism. These practices are well-woven together to create a holistic integration of the Body, Mind, Heart and Spirit.
CBC provides a safe container where you can express, trust and transform by honoring your personal boundaries and the boundaries of others. This practice will allow you to genuinely connect with yourself & others. The skills and tools are all inclusive and take each individual into account, making the practice available for all bodies and people of varying professional, cultural and religious backgrounds.
“The way you dance with someone is the way you live your life.“ – Lenka
Moving from stillness to sound, we immerse ourselves in Kirtan, a practice of Bhakti Yoga, the path of love & devotion. The repetitive singing of mantras acts like a "mind-cleanser" that takes away all the brain fog and thoughts that limit us to shine our light fully. It activates our voice and brings out our innate joy. It also connects us to our hearts & the divine/spirit, and gives us a feeling of bliss that can't be expressed in words but can only be felt.

About the facilitators:
Lisa-Marie Seiter – Cocoon Collective & Bold & Boundless Yoga I KIRTAN
Lisa found yoga almost 10 years ago and has been on the path ever since. What started with a purely asana-based yoga practice, has evolved into so much more and has now fully become her life.
Over the years, Lisa was fortunate enough to travel and study from various great teachers all over Europe and India which allowed her to explore various aspects of yoga, meditation, mindfulness, embodiment practices as well as ayurveda – but it's especially bhakti yoga, the path of love & devotion that has transformed her heart deeply.
Lisa is driven by the desire for more humanity, more vulnerability and connectedness. She's committed to co-create a world that is more sustainable – for us and the planet. A world in which people can express and develop themselves freely and can connect to their innate qualities of joy and contentment. By doing this they feel nourished and whole and it comes naturally to spread love and share their gifts with others. She believes that everyone deserves a life that is not dominated by productivity and "success", but by how much our hearts are filled.

Lenka Brandtnerova I CONTACT BEYOND CONTACT DANCE
Lenka is a Yoga teacher and Contact Beyond Contact Facilitator passionate about embodiment practices & somatics. Lenka was fortunate to study with the creator of Contact Beyond Contact (CBC) Van Legakis and facilitated CBC sessions in Mexico, Portugal and Germany. She believes that through tapping into the wisdom of our body and having the courage to meet the deeper layers of ourselves, we get to know ourselves better and are able to meet others from the place of compassion, openness and love.
Her vision is to create a community where dance becomes a collective moving meditation through which everyone can dive deeper and anchor into themselves – opening up to the outside world from the deeper place of presence, listening and compassion. Having studied, traveled and lived abroad, she loves the diversity of opinions & cultures. She stands up for the world where there is no right or wrong, everyone feels supported, encouraged to show their vulnerability and shine their own unique essence
