six days of sitting still and moving without a plan. silence, land, and whatever surfaces.
vipassana is the practice of seeing things as they are. you sit, you breathe, you watch what comes up and let it pass. we sit in silence several times a day.
authentic movement is its counterpart. eyes closed, a witness present, you let the body move from an impulse instead of an idea. no choreography, no right way. what was still on the cushion starts to move.
more info coming soon
from €250 for the five nights, dorm bed and food included.

By registering for this 6-day meditation and movement retreat, you acknowledge and agree to the following:
This retreat combines meditation with gentle, body-based practices. Any physical activity carries some risk of injury, and you take part voluntarily and at your own risk. Please listen to your body, rest when you need to, and let the teachers know about any injuries or physical limitations. If you are unsure whether the retreat is right for you, please check with a healthcare professional before joining.
Intensive meditation can sometimes bring up strong emotions or difficult memories. If you are currently experiencing, or have a history of, mental health conditions (such as depression, anxiety, trauma, psychosis or bipolar disorder), please tell us before the retreat so we can talk together about whether it is a good fit right now. The retreat is not a substitute for therapy or medical treatment.
To support everyone's practice, you agree to:
You are responsible for your own safety and for acting considerately towards others. The organizers, teachers and venue are not liable for injuries, damages or losses that occur during the retreat, except where required by law.
In case of injury or a medical emergency, you authorize the organizers to seek medical help on your behalf.
The organizers may ask a participant to leave if their presence compromises the safety or wellbeing of the group, or if their intentions are clearly not aligned with the retreat. In this case, the registration fee will not be refunded.
the retreat runs tuesday dec 1 – sunday dec 6 and your stay has to cover all of it. you can arrive up to two days early (from nov 29) and stay one day later (until monday dec 7). click a day between nov 29 and dec 1 to change your arrival, dec 6 or dec 7 to change your departure.
your total appears here once you have chosen a room above.
we'll get back to you with payment details once your booking is approved. space is reserved when paid in full.
6+ weeks out: 100% refund on accommodation. 2–6 weeks: 50%. under 2 weeks: no refund. daily fee is always fully refundable.
weekly, two-week, and monthly rates kick in when you book for at least that period. extra days beyond the minimum are charged at the same per-day rate — e.g. if you book 10 days, you can get the weekly rate for all 10.
yes, you can extend the booking at the same rate as you booked it. e.g. if you booked two weeks first and then extend by another two weeks, you'll pay the two-week rate for both stretches. to get a monthly rate, you need to book for a month in advance.
room rate = per room. daily fee, camping, and van spots = per person (since it covers mainly the use of communal facilities, not the accommodation itself).
not fully. the daily fee also covers water, electricity, and kitchen fixed running costs. if our kitchen can't meet your dietary needs, we can offer you cooking and fridge space — and reduce a small part of the fee if needed.
we have a chef, but we ask everyone to help with 1–2 cooking/space care shifts per week. on sunday we have a collective cleaning session.
we really welcome extra support. sometimes we also have discounted helper spots for people with building/carpentry/electrics/gardening skills, ask us about it.
