Dance trip
Dear dancers and lovers of unusual journeys,
travels with me to a small, hidden natural paradise on the always sunny and wildly romantic Canary Island of La Gomera. Our destination is the picturesque Finca El Cabrito, which is so remote that you can only reach it by boat. There are no streets, no noise - only the rustling of the Atlantic and the chirping of the circades in the evening. The former banana plantation is located in one of the most beautiful valleys on the island and extends to a 500 meter long black beach. Even in March the water is still a pleasant 20 degrees and invites you to swim. El Cabrito is an oasis of calm - here you are very close to nature and live in the midst of flowering bushes, mango trees, palm trees and banana fields. The seemingly endless starry sky and the view of the Teide, which the glowing red sun bathes in a magical light in the morning, are almost breathtaking.
And what could be nicer to do here than to dance :)? The seminar room is right on the beach, with a magnificent view of the sea. There are also many beautiful places that invite you to dance outside. El Cabrito is an insider tip, but at the same time so enchanting that guests who have discovered this extraordinary place once come back again and again. Therefore, the finca is booked out almost all year round, especially for seminars. Fortunately - and I'm really happy about that - a small gap was found in March. So if you have the time and inclination, we could dance, swim, hike together in this little paradise, have a lot of fun, enjoy the sun, relax, look at the stars or have a glass of wine together ...

Dance class - in the face of the goddess
Oriental Fusion & Afro-Haitian
The dance course ist inspired by the rhythms and forms of nature that we encounter in the gardens of Miramont in all their diversity. Every day we dedicate ourselves to the archetype of a charismatic deity and dance with the resulting images. Among other things, mythological stories form the basis for various improvisation exercises that we do
interweave short sequences. At the beginning there is a warm-up that relaxes the body and senses with various elements from body work and yoga, which brings you more and more into flow and in contact with your core. We play with images, breath, the intuitive and enter into a dance-like dialogue with nature.
Look forward to creative and holistic training that gives you the space to learn at your own pace. You will learn more about rhythm, flow of movement, improvisation and the dance implementation of music. As part of the oriental part, you will also learn elements of my fusion technique, which we develop into dance sequences and interweave poetically with content. They develop such a special expressiveness.

Afro-Haitian dance
During the Afro-Haitian training I would like to invite you to immerse yourself in the colorful, fascinating and magical world of this dance form - in the context of its archaic symbolism and fascinating goddesses, which have amazing parallels to Greek mythology. The dance figures are powerful - full of joie de vivre and expressiveness - and nature is the ideal place to experience it in a healing way in all its originality.
We will not only dance in our beautiful seminar room, but a lot outside on beautiful dance floors created by nature ...
You are invited to participate if you feel like engaging in a deeper examination of the topic of dance, in a unique environment and in community with other participants 🙂 The workshop is designed in such a way that every person is picked up where they are dancing. And of course you can also take breaks or learn at your own pace.

accomodationHere you can find the individual room categories Listenelement 1You live like in a small sleepy village in the middle of flowering bushes or banana fields in huts or in simple, but charmingly furnished rooms. The price initially refers to accommodation in a double room with a size of approx. 20 square meters. Of course, there is also the option of booking a single room or larger rooms for an additional charge. There are few terraced houses with two rooms and shared bathrooms that cost nothing or only slightly more for single occupancy. However, these can only be booked if both rooms are occupied. So the earlier you book, the better your chances that your room requests can be taken into account. Certain categories are booked out early.

CateringElement Link Listenelement 2Due to its secluded location, the finca only offers full board and it is really rich and delicious, with lots of fresh fruit and vegetables mostly from organic farms - mangoes, avocados, papayas, freshly squeezed juices, exotic homemade jams, tasty goat cheese from the goats the finca. And the best thing is: you can enjoy your meal in the open air right on the beach. Refreshing lemongrass tea and fruit are available throughout the day.

getting thereListenelement 3Arrival You can arrive individually or in a group with other participants - just as you want. I am happy to help you with the organization. By plane The nearest airport is Toulouse. From there you can take the regional train to the small town of Auch (travel time approx. 1.5 hours). Once there, we will pick you up with the minibus. At the moment there are flights for less than € 200. Here is my very personal tip: If you can schedule it, then I recommend giving yourself an extra day for your journey. So you could travel to Toulouse on Saturday and spend a night there. The colorful city with a Mediterranean flair is enchanting.
Vacation with your loved ones
Of course, you can also travel with your family or friends. You'll find plenty of distraction in the time you're dancing. Just talk to me. I ask for the right room for you.
