Rise Up Retreat - Yoga, Dance & Handpan / Drumming in a Castle in France


  • Chateau de Promenois Jouey France (map)

This RISE UP Retreat is a special gathering where we will meet in a beautiful place surrounded by nature & enjoy a daily yoga, dance & drum / handpan practice.

This retreat is all about re-connecting to yourself, nature and each other. Each day is dedicated to a specific element (earth, water, fire, air and ether) to allow our body, mind and spirit to come into harmony.

Nourishing healthy food will support your body to feel balanced, grounded and energised.

This retreat suits single travellers, couples and families.

There are no movement or drum skills needed; everyone is welcome.

If you are an experienced yogi/ni, dancer or musician we are excited to help you rise and evolve to the next level.

“ONE PEOPLE – ONE RIDDIM – ONE LOVE”

This retreat is taking place in the beautiful ancient castle of Promenois close to Dijon (45′) where you have lots of time & space to enjoy the surrounding & relax.

YOGA is an ancient movement practice which harmonises the body, mind & spirit. Jelena is trained in different yoga styles and today shares a Chinese-medicine influenced yoga practice which supports the organs and meridians.

DANCE: Jelena & Kosma will be inspiring you into fun and free expression through dance and you will explore different styles and journeys as: Roots Ragga, Ecstatic Dance, Contact Dance and Contemporary Dance.

HANDPAN & DRUMS: With Kosma’s handpan and drumming you will be guided to drop into your own internal rhythm centre and learn different beats. From slow and meditative, to wild and ecstatic, we’ll be connecting to our rhythm from the inside-out and having lots of fun!

FOOD: During the week you will be enjoying delicious organic vegetarian food prepared with love to nourish our body and hearts.
