✦ About the FACILITATOR ✦
Christian de Sousa has held space for thousands of people to go on transformative journeys through dance. Creator of the legendary Sweaty Thursdays in a south London church, he trained in 5Rhythms with Gabrielle Roth in 2005 and was invited by Ya’Acov & Susannah Darling Khan to become one of the first Pathfinder teachers of Movement Medicine in 2011.
As a DJ, he uses music to weave deep and subtle spaces for dancers to journey, connect, heal and create. He believes passionately in movement being a universally-accessible resource for our times and welcomes all peoples to the dancefloor, whatever ability, age, ethnicity, gender, sexual preference, size, shape and style.
Also influenced by Taoist and animist/shamanic teachings, he has studied in-depth with Malidoma Somé (Dagara medicine), Jean-Claude Audergon (Processwork) and Suprapto Suryodarmo (Amerta movement)
Born in Switzerland of mixed European ancestry, he grew up in England and developed his practice in London and other big cities. He lives in the south Devon hills with his family, and learns about enlightenment from the cats.

✦ Organized by SHIVANI ✦
Shivani brings presence, warmth, full heart, wilderness and softness, depth and authenticity, freedom and lots of dance to all her offerings, from group sessions to 1-1 coaching.
Trained in Dance/ Movement Psychotherapy and Movement Medicine in UK, she has been teaching Movement Medicine for the past 10 years in Lisbon and Aljezur, in UK and also online.
She loves to dance; her dance and embodied presence is one of her main assets and inspirations to others, as much as her depth of feeling, and her quest for truth, freedom and authenticity in the way she lives her life.
Her approach draws from other conscious dance and embodiment practices, tantra and conscious sexuality, psychotherapy, meditation and satsang.
