Threads of Connection
A freedomDANCE retreat with Alex Svoboda
Cirali, Turkey
15–21 June 2025
WORKSHOP FOCUS
This retreat offers a dedicated space to explore the threads that weave our lives together.
Through the freedomDANCE practice, you’ll deepen your awareness of how you connect—with yourself, others, and the world. By moving, awakening heightened sensitivity, and engaging in creative reflection, we will trace the fundamental relationships that shape us, honouring our personal histories while envisioning the lives we want to create.
In this retreat, we will:
-
Explore threads of connection with the self, physical environment, partner, group, community, and the Universe.
-
Revisit key stages of life—childhood, adolescence, adulthood, maturity, and old age—uncovering how our connections have evolved over time. As a group, we will honour the paths we’ve travelled so far.
-
Discover ways to stay true to ourselves, share authentically with others, and transcend the limitations of our physical bodies. Guided by the freedomDANCE cycle of Opening, Transformation, and Freedom, you’ll integrate your past and strengthen your sense of connection—both within and beyond yourself. This journey will inspire and empower you as you continue weaving your life’s threads into a greater tapestry of wholeness.
ALEX’S FACILITATION
Alex founded freedomDANCE fifteen years ago. He has been running retreats since 2011, and they have consistently evolved into transformative journeys that cultivate connection, warmth, and acceptance. Alex’s way of holding space carries an unmatched quality of permission, fostering intimacy and mutual support within the group. Over the years, many long-term friendships have been formed at these retreats.
OPPORTUNITIES TO RECHARGE
Our rich journey will be supported by a comfortable dancing space, excellent Turkish food, and the outstanding natural beauty of Cirali. The programme is carefully designed to balance the intensity of group processes with ample time for personal reflection and resourcing, whether by enjoying the sun, the sea, or mountain walks.
