BIODANZA

 Wed, 10 th Sept, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM 

 

 

Biodanza, which literally means ‘the dance of life’, is a human integration system of organic renewal, of affective education of re-entering life happily, and of relearning of Life's original functions. 

 

Created in the 1960s by the Chilean anthropologist and psychologist Rolando Toro, the system is now found in 54 countries, including Brazil, Argentina,Australia, Spain, Germany, Italy, Japan, South Africa, United Kingdom, United States.The system claims to make you happy and helps reduce stress. Its application consists of experiencing a beautiful blend of relaxation, vitality and action through music, singing, movements and  group - encounter situations. It gives us the freedom to develop our human capacities, deepen our bond with others and nature and to express our feelings congenially by enhancing our 

happiness, communication skills and improvement in relationships.

 

Yaron invites us to experience the therapeutic depth of Biodanza within the healing power of nature. The workshop aims to add to our social life and promote the ability to strengthen our relationship with ourselves, with each other, with life and this beautiful world we live in.

Discover your Clown - An Exploration of the Chaplin in You

Open your Mouth…. HA HA HA !!!
(‘The Clown Plays Here and Now’ - A Workshop by Rupesh Tillu)

The clown: The person behind the red nose is hidden in all of us. This session aims at playful exploration of emotion-energy, imitation practice, and diving into a world of imagination, to bring out the ‘chaplin’ in us.

Plays: Clowns are powerful communicators. Dynamisms of action, expression, sound and words are played with in this session, not worrying about whether it makes sense or if it is the right thing to do. The more it goes wrong, more the success. We use antics, and props for a series of playful humour exercises to bring about a growing awareness of ourselves and our world.

Here and now: We live in a world where the real joy laughter has remained confined to terms like LOL, ROFL, LMAO. In this session, we will practice ‘living the moment’ and use the contemporary clown principles to bring our silly sides up.

Get ready to be a goofy classic, and to establish a creative and funny space with us to get that funny bone tickled till we all fall down!!
PS: Slip and fall down carefully, just kidding !

Jashn-e-Sufi: A Celebration of Ishq..Ibadat.. Zikr..

~Jashn-e-Sufi~
A Sufiyana Celebration of Ishq..Ibadat..Zikr..
 

Knocking has ceased. The moment is ripe. The door, opens. The path is drunken. Method, celebration.

This monsoon, we have invited Nirupam and Damini for a unique Sufi jugalbandi at Zorba.  A special three day Sufiyana Intensive. Combining the dynamics of tradition and with contemporary techniques. Sufi qaul from South Asia flowing with the techniques of Zikr from the Middle East. The feminine and masculine aspects of the path, meeting, merging. The techniques of Ibadat, meet the fragrance of Ishq. Creating the Sama, the state of ecstatic union.

What to expect : Nirupam will be leading you into the depths of remembrance through Zikr and a special session of Sufi healing. Damini will be guiding you into the heights of ecstasy through Sama, a cocktail of handpicked Sufi stories, music and mystical sounds. And, of course, there will be Sufiyana dancing, plus. They have designed the intensive to include contemporary Sufi methods from the world of Osho. There will be an initiation into techniques that can be carried back home.

What is the motive : An invitation into the Sufi esoteric path in a simple, easy, contemporary manner. With techniques that can be practised in your daily life. For - as the wise Sufis have said - only a desperation of thirst, combined with a sincerity of practise, can make that moment arrive ... when the door, opens. And the real celebration, Jashn-e-Sufi, begins.


Prabhu Damini



Sufis walk around in deceptive guises. Singing songs, telling stories, dancing with life. Damini dons the Sufi attire. Modern. Tech-savvy. Cinematographer, editor, sound designer, journalist. An awarded filmmaker of international repute, Damini specialises in creating potent experiences of visible and inner worlds. She is in the nature of the wandering minstrels. By profession, a Filmmaker. By passion, a storyteller. By calling, a Sufi. For a tongue tip taste of her ability to create experiential weaves, go to www.youtube.com/prabhudamini


Nirupam



An Osho sanyasin, Nirupam has been on the Sufi path of meditation for the last 25 years. He has been trained in Gurdjieff Sacred Dances, Awareness Intensive, Osho Holistic Massage and Reiki.  For the last ten years he has been sharing his experience with people around the world facilitating Sufi Whirling, Zikr, Gurdjieff Sacred Dances and Awareness Intensives - a process of self-enquiry.

Self Empowerment through Gestalt

Self Empowerment through Gestalt
Advancing towards becoming a more responsible being

Fri, 12 to Sun, 14 Sept, 9:30 AM to 6:00 PM
 

The essence of Self Empowerment is personal responsibility, manifested by taking full and complete control and accountability for our own life and circumstances. In Gestalt therapy, the main key for change is self-awareness.

In this weekend workshop, Yaron will take us through the experiential exercises of awareness, movement and voice. Becoming fully aware of our emotions and behaviors in the present rather than in the past, we will resolve issues through interactive sessions that will lead us to a resolution and transform our weakness into strength through guided professional experience of Gestalt methods and techniques.

Yaron will help empower us with ways to make our own choices and decisions, free ourselves from the anxiety of living up to the expectations of others and experience the joy of being authentically us.

Enneagram Workshop: Know your Personality/Ego Structure

The Enneagram of Liberation
                                                                    with Shivam Satyam
Sunday, 24 Aug, 9:00AM - 6:30PM
*Personal Sessions available on request

Know your Ego-Structure, Know your Chief Characteristic, Know and Transcend!

The Enneagram is a spiritual map that tells us that the limitless manifests itself through the ego; that the way to liberation goes through imprisonment. It is as if we have all been given the task of an Alchemist – to turn the base metal of ego into radiant truth; to transform melancholy, anger,fear, hysteria, neediness and doubt into awareness, love and joy.

The enneagram shows us the mirror, it makes us aware of our primary limitation. And what is most important – it shows us a way out of it. It presents to us the structure of our ego in all its details, such that we can see and transcend it. The enneagram does not tell us who we are, it rather presents before us the obstacles that prevent us from discovering our true nature. It does not give us health, it rather diagnoses our disease, and prescribes us the right medicine.

The workshop would include:

-Determining each participant’s personality type through detailed tests and questionaires.
-Understanding the ego-structure and ego-fixation of each enneagram type.
-Acting out the ego structure through role play.
-Tools and affirmations to transcend the ego fixation.
-Meditations and de-hypnosis to reprogram belief systems on a cellular level.



Shivam is a writer and artist by profession. Meditation is his love. He has been travelling in India and around the world for the last eight years, meditating and learning from different schools of mysticism. He regularly conducts workshops in India. His debut novel, The Wayfarer, in the genre of spiritual fiction is going to be out in July

Rebirthing: The Art of Conscious Breathing

Rebirthing 
The Art of Conscious Breathing

 

Sun, 12  Oct to Tue, 21 Oct

Starts at 6:00 PM on 12 Oct

Residential Workshop
 

The average human draws energy unconsciously from air and food. But if we master the art of conscious energy breathing, we can absorb universal energy directly from the Source into our physical and subtle bodies. This art of tapping into the infinite healing energy of the Universe is called Rebirthing-Breathwork or Conscious Energy Breathing.

It is certainly an extraordinary self-healing ability any human can learn… In this, through the rhythmic merging of inhalation and exhalation, we inundate body and mind with Divine Energy. As we connect with our breath, we gradually also begin to release karmic cycles of life and death…traumas get healed and suffering ceases to exist. When deep healing takes place, the portals of greater happiness, success, peace of mind, universal love and joy also open up!

 

Leonard Orr is the Founder of Rebirthing-Breathwork.  A life-long student of self transformation & body mastery, he is also a pioneer in the Physical Immortality movement.  He is a modern day yogi, visionary, healer, teacher, and the author of over 20 books. Leonard is also one of the earliest proponents of `Prosperity Consciousness’ the idea that the state of one’s mind and beliefs about oneself are a key factor in manifesting `Abundance’ in one’s life. Millions of lives over the world have been healed and changed by his unique ideas.
