Details of this retreat

Dance Alchemy Facilitator Training (9th Edition) is a 12-day immersive journey from embodied experience into embodied leadership.

Developed and refined over more than two decades of international teaching, this training integrates breathwork, Qi-work, yoga and meditation, dance improvisation, contact improvisation, and principles of dance therapy into a structured and holistic methodology.

You begin with embodiment.
You deepen your personal practice.
You refine your awareness.

Then the focus shifts.

You learn how to turn embodied experience into facilitation.

You learn how to structure transformation — with clarity, safety, and integrity.

You learn how to hold space responsibly and confidently.

Throughout the training, you will:

• Embody the full spectrum of Dance Alchemy tools
• Learn the architecture behind transformational session design
• Practice facilitation inside a real group container
• Receive feedback and refine your leadership presence
• Develop your own authentic offering
• Build confidence grounded in structure and lived experience

This is not about performance.
It is not about choreography.
It is not about copying the teacher.

It is about refining your own style, your own voice, and your own depth — supported by a tested and evolving methodology now entering its 9th edition.

The training combines daily embodied practice with facilitation labs, group dynamics work, leadership development, and integration processes. By the end of the 12 days, you leave not only personally transformed, but equipped with concrete tools and practical experience.

You leave with confidence.
You leave with structure.
You leave with depth.

Held in the powerful environment of Bali, this training is designed for coaches, therapists, retreat leaders, yoga teachers, and movement practitioners ready to guide others through embodied transformation.

Before Travel
You need to fill up online “All Indonesia” Arrival Card.

https://allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id/

Indonesia has introduced a unified digital portal, named “All Indonesia”, to streamline immigration, customs, and health procedures into a single form, replacing multiple separate processes like SATUSEHAT (health declaration) and e-CD (customs declaration) online forms.

Travelers fill out this form within 3 days (ideally 72 hours) prior to arrival

The process takes about 2.5 minutes to complete

Upon submission, a QR code is generated and sent via email, which must be presented to immigration/customs upon arrival

It's free of charge
The new All Indonesia Arrival Card is not a visa. It’s a mandatory digital entry declaration (immigration + customs + health) but does not replace visa requirements

Visa: You still need to obtain the correct visa for your visit (Visa on Arrival, e-VOA, free visa for certain ASEAN nationals, or other visa types depending on your nationality and purpose).

All Indonesia Arrival Card: This is a separate online form every traveler must complete (where available) within 3 days before arrival, even if they already have a visa or are visa-exempt.

Don't forget to apply for your evisa and pay your tourism levy!
