“Your voice matters.
Your movement aligns.
Your integrity has the power to lift the world.”

 

We are all born in silence. In the early moments of life, expression begins with a simple breath, a gesture, a sound. From this stillness, we learn to connect - with ourselves, with others, with the world. Yet over time, as we adapt to external expectations, we often lose touch with the authentic flow of our inner voice. Words become filtered, movements constrained, and creativity stifled.

​

The ECHOES OF SILENCE workshop is an invitation to return to this inner source - a space where silence, words, and movement come together to awaken your unique essence. Through poetry, dance, and ritual, we explore the richness of human expression, creating a sanctuary for authentic connection and creative flow.​​

Our journey begins with listening...

This workshop offers a journey into the transformative power of silence, expression, and co-creation. Guided by the echoes within, participants are invited to reconnect with themselves and the collective through poetry, movement, and reflection.

1. Grounding in Silence and Intention

   • We begin by gathering around a central altar - a symbolic space of connection and creativity. Here, in silence, we set our intentions, grounding ourselves in the present moment and inviting clarity into the journey ahead.

   • Participants are encouraged to reflect on what they wish to explore and express, creating an atmosphere of openness and shared purpose.

2. Awakening the Body and Heart

   • Gentle movement practices and breathwork awaken the body, inviting participants to move intuitively and reconnect with their inner rhythm.

   • These exercises are designed to cultivate presence, allowing participants to fully inhabit their bodies and open themselves to creative expression.

3. Writing as Echoes, Words as Motion

   • Through guided writing exercises, participants are invited to give voice to the echoes within. Words become a bridge between the seen and unseen, a way to articulate the emotions, stories, and truths that wish to emerge.

   • Poetry becomes a practice of listening - both to the silence and the wisdom it holds.

4. Dance as Living Poetry

   • As the session unfolds, movement and words merge seamlessly. The body becomes a vessel for expression, transforming the dance floor into a canvas where stories come alive.

   • Inspired by the themes explored in writing, participants are encouraged to embody their words, allowing motion to carry their poetry into being.

5. Moments of Reflection and Stillness

   • Throughout the workshop, silence is honored as a powerful space for integration. These moments allow participants to pause, reflect, and deepen their connection to themselves and the collective.

6. Community Poetry Dance

   • The experience culminates in a Community Poetry Dance, where individual expressions merge into a collective celebration. Through shared words, rhythms, and movements, participants co-create a tapestry of sound, motion, and connection, honoring the echoes that unite us all.

 

A language of the soul...

This workshop is more than a creative outlet - it is a journey into the heart of who we are. By combining poetry, movement, and ritual, ECHOES OF SILENCE offers a space to:

• Rediscover the power of your voice. Writing and speaking from the heart reconnect you with your truth and create space for authentic expression.

• Awaken the wisdom of the body. Movement becomes a tool for release, celebration, and self-awareness.

• Deepen your connection to others. Through shared experiences, we honor the beauty of collective creativity and the threads that bind us.

• Celebrate life in all its layers. From the quiet moments of reflection to the joyful rhythms of the dance floor, we embrace the fullness of life.

 

Co-creation in unfolding...

This creative experience is guided by Caroline S’Jegers, founder of ícaro events – roots to create. A passionate artist, poetess, and ceremony leader, Caroline weaves words and movement into spaces that are deeply touching and profoundly soulful. Her work is rooted in ritual and inspired by the beauty of life’s transitions.

• Co-create a grounded connection with their roots.
