Refuge with Amber Ryan & Willemijn de Dreu Kiental, Switzerland

There is a lot uprising and brewing in our world today, a perfect time to step out, take pause and step into Refuge. Our beloved Kate has had a family matter that must be attended to, and in her absence the lovely and magical Willemijn will step in to weave this potent offering. You are invited to take your place in the circle for a powerful and dynamic week to practice the art of being human. We will be taking a tribe of adventurous souls on a movement journey into the wild terrain of our bodies, hearts, and souls. With the 5Rhythms® Practice as our Foundation and the magnificent beauty of Kiental, Switzerland, we will take Refuge from the world of doing in order to arrive into a nourishing state of Being. Our home for these 6 days will find us nestled in a gorgeous tranquil green valley with views of the ice-capped mountains surrounded by forests with waterfalls and space for scenic hikes. Supported by delicious whole foods, Yoga with Kevin Courtney, ceremony, and nature hikes, we will dance ourselves to the root of our primal nature to rediscover our edge as well as our innate beauty. We will move to uncover what holds us back, and share it in ritual theatre; we will redefine what we are ready to take on in our lives and have support echoed back to us through the power of the tribe. The 5Rhythms® are a philosophy, perspective, performance art and a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself. Movement is both the medicine and the metaphor, reaching across all languages and age groups to transform suffering into art, art into awareness and awareness into action. Willemijn is known for her light way of guiding people into deep process. She is a passionate dancer and a fiery, yet grounded woman. Amber is a healing artist with an embodiment and articulation of the 5Rhythms® movement meditation practice that inspires depth and expansion. Her musical journeys deliver us into the heart & soul of our own beat and her leadership invites us to share our uniqueness in community. She studied with Founder Gabrielle Roth in NYC for 10 years, and is on the annual staff of Omega's program at Blue Spirit in Nosara, Costa Rica. She travels internationally sharing her love and understanding of the 5Rhythms® practice. Kevin Courtney has dedicated the last 15 years to the pursuit of awakening consciousness by focusing on strength, energy cultivation, and mental clarity. With teachings from the Sankhya Philosophy, Kevin captures hearts and minds with a down to earth style full of authenticity, kindness, and light-heartedness.
