A Transformative Journey into Authentic Teaching.
Teach from who you are.
This retreat invites you to reconnect with your essence, the part of you that moves, teaches, and leads from presence rather than performance. Through somatic movement, self-inquiry, touch, nature, and philosophy, you’ll explore what authenticity means for you as a teacher. You’ll gain tools to stay inspired, access your voice, and guide with confidence and care, not by becoming someone else, but by being more fully yourself.
Whether you’re feeling stuck, burnt out, or simply ready to go deeper, this training offers a reset and a return, to your passion, your purpose, and your unique way of teaching.
You’ll leave with:
💜 Tools to cultivate and sustain authentic presence as a teacher
💜 Practices to reconnect with your voice, creativity, and intuition
💜 An embodied approach to teaching rooted in nature, somatics & yoga philosophy
💜 A supportive community space for reflection, growth & exploration
What You'll Learn
Authenticity Through Movement & Presence
Teach from the inside out. Through self-inquiry, reflection, and somatic practices (inspired by Laban, Feldenkrais, and more), you’ll deepen body awareness, unlock intuitive movement, and discover how your natural way of being shapes your voice as a teacher.
Nature-Inspired Teaching & Elemental Wisdom
Explore the links between the outer and inner landscape. Through principles from Ayurveda and Chinese Medicine, you’ll learn to weave elemental themes, storytelling, and intention into your classes with more depth and clarity.
Wisdom & Relevance: Yoga Philosophy in Daily Life
Engage with core yoga concepts not as theory, but as living inspiration. You’ll reflect on how ancestral teachings can be reinterpreted in meaningful, personal ways, to support your growth both on and off the mat.
Who You'll
Learn From
They bring together a rich blend of precision and poetry, science and somatics. Fanny’s expertise in functional anatomy, fascia, and intelligent sequencing meets Willemieke’s background in dance, cultural anthropology, and presence-based movement.
Together, they create a training space that is structured yet intuitive, where technique supports expression, and flow becomes something you feel from the inside out. Their shared guidance invites you to teach not just what you know, but what you embody.
Naomi
It was one of the most transformative experiences of my life. The training was meticulously planned yet offered the flexibility to adapt to the group's energy and needs. The care and attention given to every detail was beautiful. I've attended trainings and workshops before, but this retreat stood out for its openness, its honesty, the commitment from everyone. And it all took place in a breathtaking winter wonderland that served as our backdrop. We explored the elements through yoga and our experience of nature surrounding us. Their teaching deepened my connection with the natural world, and simultaneously strengthened my connection to myself. The retreat left me with a lifetime of inspiration for both my personal journey as well any future teaching.

This training was nothing like any training I have ever done before. It went so deep and so far beyond what I would expect. I am still (a week after) a bit flabbergasted by the impact it had. I feel like it was more soulsearching and innerwork than something else. I feel like I found something within myself that over time will prove to be so much more valuable than anything else could be. Fanny and Willemieke are just wonders. I have not the words to describe them. There love and devotion to what they do is just so pure and true. They are inspiration.
