Threshold Ceremonies:
A passage into the unknown
A threshold is a doorway, a sacred space between the past and the future, the known and the unknown. It is the crossing from one state to another—a moment where something profound shifts within us. Whether it’s the beginning of a new chapter, the end of an old one, or a significant life change, thresholds are milestones that invite us to step forward with awareness and intention.
A threshold is not just a doorway but a sacred invitation.
It is the shimmer where one story ends,
and the song of a new horizon begins.
In tribal cultures, such thresholds were honored with elaborate rituals—births, marriages, rites of passage, and death were all celebrated and marked with ceremony. These rituals provided community support, space for reflection, and the collective acknowledgment of life’s cyclical nature. In today’s modern world, many of these practices have been lost, leaving us with few opportunities to honor life’s transitions. Yet the need to celebrate, mourn, and empower remains an essential part of the human experience.
Threshold Ceremonies are designed to bring these meaningful moments back into our lives, providing a sacred space to pause, reflect, and step forward with intention.
These ceremonies hold space for the moments that ask us to pause,breathe,
and step forward—whole, present, and open.
Crossing the invisible line: Honoring life’s cycles
Led by Caroline S’Jegers, Threshold Ceremonies are a way to mark life’s turning points with presence, mindfulness, and creativity. Each ceremony is an invitation to reconnect to the profound power of ritual, drawing from the transformative forces of dance, spoken word, music, and community. These experiences are tailored to your unique needs, whether you’re navigating personal growth, celebrating a milestone, or marking a significant life event.
What lies on the other side of the known?
Through the alchemy of dance, music, and words,
Threshold Ceremonies craft rituals of reflection and celebration.
They are a call to remember and a path to become,
weaving the threads of past, present, and future into a tapestry of transformation.
Available in person or online, these ceremonies offer connection and depth, wherever you may be.

Reflections on listening... As a DJ and dancer, Caroline experiences listening as an art form. Listening requires presence and practice. Silence and connection. Listening can only be experienced through the body, while staying connected to our inner voices of wisdom as well as to our surroundings. Listening asks of us to fully inhabit our body and thus: to tend to its needs. The body speaks a language of its own, its messages are instinctive and connected to the senses. The body re-members: it shelters and stores experiences, in relation to the wild soul. At the heart of listening lies (the art of) listening to the wisdom of our soul – which happens only through the experience of embodied presence:
“Sometimes words simply cannot describe the experiences that I get to witness... When we connect to our authentic expression, truly all of us is welcomed. And our hearts gently open up like a flower being kissed by the sun. In times of huge chaos and despair, it also feels like one of the most essential things: to sink back into our rooted connection to the earth, to reconnect to our inner spark of creativity, and to sense the inspirational flow of spirit."
May we sense and feel how we as humans are all part of the intricate web of life. With a deep bow to our vulnerable sharings and writings. To the rawness and croockedness. To the essence and simplicity. And to all the parts within that are longing to be expressed. Including the golden gifts that lie underneath.
"Be a reflection of this. Reflect, and shine."
"I call back home, lost pieces of my essence, I call back my lost pieces, into peace... Het was magisch!" (Hanne)
