Dance - Crete - Focusing
6 days seminar at Orizon Center for Life & Creation
by Ulrike Boehm and Martina Sagmeister A week with movement, dance, focusing, hiking, sun and sea, enjoy the beauty of the landscape, explore nature and let your mind wander! In this seminar (approximately four hours per day) teachers Ulrike Boehm and Martina Sagmeister will encourage us for free, improvisative dancing, to give rise to our own movement and follow impulses. By combining mindful focusing and dance we can encounter personal issues in an easy manner and translate them effortlessly in motion. Thus we get the chance to open ourselves in a loving way a room for further development. The respectful attitude both approaches and accompanies this process. The other half of the day is open to choice: swimming in the pool, swim in the sea, guided walks to places of power, simply laze or walk independently on a discovery tour.

Biological Cretan Farm

Approximately 1.5km from Akrimios, set in a valley overlooking the snowy Lefka Ori Mountains is the Kokotsakis Family Farm. Generations have lived on this land raising sheep and making cheese, growing grapes and making wine, growing olives and making olive oil, growing and harvesting lemons, oranges and a variety of vegetables.
Petros Kokotsaki manages the farm and continues in the traditional ways. Coaxing the earth to produce the healthy, biological, organic food that the family and the patrons of Akrimios enjoy throughout the year.
