ECSTATIC DANCE & ENERGY AWAKENING RETREAT 

 WITH ANDREW BARNES

28.10 – 1.11. 2026

Do you feel the need to slow down, move, and reconnect with your body?

This 4-day retreat is a space where you can release tension, awaken your energy, and return to your natural flow through dance, breath and conscious movement.

You don’t need any experience.
There is no choreography and no pressure to perform.

Just a safe space to move, feel and reconnect with yourself.

What this retreat offers

Through a combination of ecstatic dance, breathwork and embodied practices, you will have the opportunity to:

  • release physical and emotional tension
  • reconnect with your body and senses
  • increase your energy and vitality
  • deepen your intuition and self-awareness
  • experience more ease, freedom and authenticity

Why dance and breath?

When you move beyond thinking and drop into your body, something shifts.

Your body begins to release what it has been holding.
Your energy starts to flow more naturally.
You become more present, more alive, and more connected.

This is where real change happens — not through effort, but through experience.

Who is this for?

  • anyone who wants to feel more and think less
  • people seeking deeper connection with themselves
  • those who feel stuck, low on energy or disconnected
  • practitioners in bodywork, therapy or well-being

What is Ecstatic Dance?

Ecstatic dance is a form of movement meditation where you are guided by music, breath and your body — not by choreography.

There is no right or wrong way to move.
You simply follow what feels natural and authentic in the moment.

Through this, the body begins to release tension, the mind slows down, and your energy starts to flow more freely.

Why intuitive movement?

When you stop trying to control how you move and start listening to your body, something shifts.

Movement becomes more natural.
Your awareness deepens.
You begin to feel more — and think less.

This is where intuition becomes alive — not as an idea, but as a direct experience in the body.

What you may discover

Ecstatic dance can open the door to:

  • greater freedom in movement and self-expression
  • deeper connection with your body and senses
  • increased vitality and presence
  • more ease in your emotions and relationships

Each experience is unique — but often surprising in how quickly the body knows the way.

During the retreat, you will explore:

    • ecstatic intuitive dance
    • movement with the rhythm of the heartbeat
    • blindfolded dance (to deepen inner perception and trust)
    • sensual movement and body awareness
    • cacao ceremony with breath and movement meditation
    • breathwork practices to release emotional and physical tension
    • nervous system work to expand your capacity for pleasure and experience
    • natural states of flow, presence and embodied awareness
    • cultivating intuition and inner life energy

Join us

Shake off what has been holding you back.
Move beyond limitations and reconnect with your body, your energy and your natural expression.

You don’t need to know how to dance.
You just need to be willing to show up.

Important Information & Safe Space

At the beginning of the retreat, we establish clear agreements and boundaries to create a safe, respectful and supportive environment for everyone.

We work with trauma-informed principles, which means:

  • you move at your own pace
  • participation is always voluntary
  • you are free to choose your level of involvement at any time

There is no pressure to perform or engage beyond what feels right for you.


Responsibility

This retreat is not a therapeutic or medical program.

While we work with body, breath and experience, it does not replace professional medical or psychological care.

If you are currently dealing with significant physical or psychological challenges, we recommend consulting a qualified professional before attending.


Nudity & personal boundaries

Some practices may include an optional level of body openness.

  • everything is fully voluntary
  • your boundaries are always respected
  • you are welcome to remain fully clothed at all times

Consent, safety and respect are at the core of this space.

„Jediný výcvik, kde jsem se necítil jako na výcviku díky základnímu uvědomění žít život.“   Jan Piskoř

„…neuhnete, nenechá vás…v naprosté jistotě a lehkosti vás dovede k uvidění skutečnosti a přijetí života TAK, JAK JE – opravdu velmi osvobozující a povzbudivé. Veliké díky, že jsem mohl být součástí.“   Karel Štěcha

„Na výcviku jsem se cítila v bezpečí, cítila jsem, že opravdu můžu být sama sebou. Ivana má úžasný lidský přístup, vcítění, a říká věci tak, jak jsou. Pomohla mi v těžké životní situaci, díky  ní jsem se postavila znovu na nohy a znovu našla radost se života a poznala, o čem ten život je. Jsem vděčná za to, že mi vstoupila do života a naučila mě žít a ne jen přežívat.“ Petra Felcmanová

„Z výcviku u Ivany stále čerpám, i když už dávno skončil. Zůstala ve mně totiž lehkost, přijetí a nádherné vzpomínky na super strávený čas. Doporučila bych každému, kdo by chtěl poznat sám sebe v bezpečném prostředí, protkaném mimo jiné spoustou smíchu.“  Petra Skočdopolová

„Ivana a jej dar podporiť klienta, zazrieť podstatu života, z očí do očí, tak jemne a hlboko a čisto. Majstrovské umenie, jedinečná kombinácia a dlhotrvajúci efekt.“ Lubo Feher

„To, co mne oslovilo, je Ivanina životní moudrost, nadhled, lidskost a vysoká profesionalita. Bezpečí a výzva žít život tady a teď…“ Irena Hošková

„Řekla bych, že jsem díky Ivaně po šedesátce dospěla.“ Ivana Fílová

„Výcvik mi přinesl spoustu AHA momentů. Díky Ivaně jsem pochopila, kdy a v čem si sama stojím v cestě, a ve svém životě jsem se celkově víc usadila. Moc děkuju i za bezpečné prostředí a přijetí.“  Madla Čevelová
