We invite all artists and movement lovers in town to an exceptional evening of dance, music and improvisation amidst the beautiful green gardens of Zorba the Buddha.

We will then open the space to a journey in Improvisation, accompanied by live music in the background. Meet ourselves and meet others in movement, communicate and co-create through our bodies and individual expressions. Awareness, listening, playfulness, curiosity and creativity will be our guides.

About the Facilitators

Ranjan 2

Being a professional dancer, Chittaranjan’s approach to contact improvisation is very unique. He brings both technical as well as spiritual approach to his dance. Chittaranjan combines these approaches with Safety Release Techniques & Creative Movement Therapy. He believes that the most important essence of contact improvisation is sensing and raising awareness of self and others, for it is only within that one finds freedom and connection simultaneously. He has participated in international festivals like Goa Contact Dance Festival facilitated by Angelika Doniy, Irene Sposetti and Erica Kaufman and the Nataraj Dance Festival hosted by Zorba the Buddha.

Rachnika has been a student of dance for 11 years and has trained and performed professionally for 4 years. She has been trained in ballet, jazz and modern contemporary at The Danceworx. There, she taught dance, both, to kids as well as adults for 4 years. Her own research explores the idea of ‘listening to the body’ and is supported with the practice of Vipassana, a form of meditation. She explores the relationship of the mind and body.  She gives workshops on 'Body Awareness' and also performs as a dance artist. She is also currently teaching dance to kids and senior citizens.

Su-Jok Acupressure Sessions in the Lap of Nature with Taruna

Su-Jok Acupressure Sessions
Heal. Rejuvenate. Grow.
With Taruna

Acupressure is an alternative medicine technique, based on the concept of life-energy which flows through "meridians" in the body. The meridians begin at your fingertips, connect to your brain, and then connect to an organ associated with a certain meridian. When one of these meridians is blocked or out of balance, illness can occur. In treatment, physical pressure is applied to acupressure points in the body with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians.

Using the power and sensitivity of the hand, Acupressure Therapy is effective in the relief of ailments such as, back pain, headache, joint pain, obesity, spondylitis, PCOD, and is ideal for boosting the immune system. Acupressure releases tension, increases circulation, reduces pain, and leads to vibrant health. It will also stimulate the energy flow in the body, as it is great for blood circulation, making you feel energized and active in your daily routine.

About the Facilitators



Taruna was born and brought up in Delhi, in a yogic family. At a tender age, she started helping her mother who runs a renowned Naturopathy centre in Delhi and gained insight into the world of Naturppathy, Yoga and Acupressure, and later went on to train in them. Apart from being a Reiki grandmaster, having taught Reiki to many in Delhi, she has a long clientele in Delhi/NCR.

Discover Your Clown with Ashwath Bhatt

Discover Your Clown
Experience A Clowning Workshop
With Ashwath Bhatt

A 3-Hour workshop to give you a nice taste of the upcoming 2-Day Clowning workshop.

The clown is a state where urgency prevails, living in the moment, in the ‘Here and Now’. Through the clown, explore the world from a more positive viewpoint, free from moral and logical constraints. Discover your true sense of pleasure and joy in play as we delve into the world of the clown. Together we will explore the vulnerability and the “stupidity” of our playful spirits ranging from the ridiculous to the grotesque to the innocent. Comedy often makes us laugh but doesn’t manage to touch our hearts. When we work from a place of personal truth and with the vulnerability of the clown, our comedy reaches a much deeper place. This class will explore that place where you go beyond gags and finding your clown who can touch the hearts in a way that makes our comedy more universal and makes us laugh from the gut. We will work individually and in duos and groups in exercises based in classic clown, improvisation and movement.

*The workshop will start at the precise time mentioned. A request to everyone to be on time.

Start Your Day With A Morning Party with Shivam

Day Breaker - A Morning Party!
Kickstart your Day the Healthy Way..

Dancing Calvin & Hobbes

Dance is a good and the most fun form of exercise and an excellent way to keep fit. Dance helps us lose weight, stay flexible, reduce stress, make friends, and more. It is also tremendously beneficial in keeping us young!

Dance is also a form of meditation, not known or understood by most. While dancing, the brain releases such chemicals that are not generated in any other physical activity. So why not begin the day with the best mood enhancer we know of!

We will be dancing to a wide range of music - from House to Electronic, Break Beat to Down Tempo, Drum & Bass to Chill-out and Electro to Nu Jazz. There will be some pauses and meditations, in between all the dances, which will allow us to explore our inner landscape.

So, come and immerse yourself in this new morning culture. Let your hair down and begin your day like never before!

GONG BATH with The Traveling Gong Yogacharya, San Jay Hallon

Gong Bath
Rest. Relax. Reconnect.
With The Travelling Gong Yogacharya San Jay Hallon

It is to be bathed in waves of beautiful and timeless vibrations. The powerful vibrations of the gong transport us to another level of being and place where healing occurs naturally and the stresses of everyday life are gently washed away.

Often in a Gong Bath, Native American Flutes, Tibetan/Himalayan Singing Bowls, African Drums and Temples Bells are played, some times in conjunction with the Piano, Violin, Shruti Box or even Guitars and Voice. This creates a sound envelope and texture that is non-linear and trans-spatial. This allows you to integrate your intention and balance your body, mind, and spirit promoting a positive change in you.

About the Facilitators

San Jay is a traveling Gong yogi who has taken a divine order or “Hukum” to spread the goodness of the gongs and its teaching to the world. He practices and conducts workshops on gong bath relaxation, meditation, gong yoga and sound healing.

Bach Flower Remedy Sessions & Zero Therapy Sessions with Anjana

Bach Flower Remedy & Zero Therapie Sessions
With Anjana

Bach Flower Remedy Sessions
Session Duration: 45 Mins - 1 Hr

We, at Zorba the Buddha, offer you a chance to come share your problems, be it emotional or physical, and receive a remedy for it, a Bach Flower Remedy. These are somewhat of a magical potion, infusion of flowers - the water containing energy signatures of flowers, preserved in brandy, developed by Edward Bach in the 1930s, which have now become a trusted name.

Each of the 38 remedies discovered by Dr Bach is directed at a particular characteristic or emotional state, as specific as, intolerance, guilt, the inability to say 'no', lack of trust in one's own decisions, failure to learn from mistake, being selfish, and so on. These work in conjunction with herbs, homeopathy and medications and are safe for everyone, including children, pregnant women, pets and the elderly. They gently restore the balance between mind and body by casting out negative emotions or characteristics which interfere with the equilibrium of the being as a whole, restoring peace and happiness.

Zero Therapie Session
Session Duration: 1.5 - 2.5 Hrs

Zero Therapie helps transport into the state of – ‘Conscious mind & sleeping body’. Operating from nothingness … approaching nothingness … reaching a state of nothingness.

It is a holistic healing therapie in which a person is transported deep into a meditative state by the gentle exploration of the skull by the healer. This begins the process of finding physical as well as mental/emotional blocks that one is carrying in life and thus releasing them from the brain. Simultaneous release happens in the affected part of the body in the form of a jerk, itch, sliding movement, emotional release etc.

This therapie can help in restoring, improving & maintaining general well-being.

 


About the Facilitator

Anjana is a healer who finds herself deeply connected with nature. Right now she runs Bach Flower Clinic called TRANSFORMATION and works mostly with persons with special needs. She is also into “ZERO THERAPIE” which is in line with Non-doing Philosophy.
