Workshop - Beyond Pandora’s Box
Creating with the gems within you
Weekend Biodanza & Creativity Workshop
1 - 3 November, Melbourne
What if you allow your curiosity to take a peak into your own box?
What if you let go of the rule books and paint outside the lines?
What if your creative instincts burst forth to show you a new path?
We explore inquisitiveness, courage, love, and what is beyond.
We have so much inherit genetic potential that lie dormant and are waiting to be uncovered and harnessed to create more life and new possibilities
Your Invitation
Lifting the lid, driven by your curiosity, thirst for knowledge, hunger for freedom, desire for love.
You courageously open the box
A box you had been told not to open
A box that is forbidden
You have always held the key to unlock its potential. The moment you open this box, you unleash the unknown. All the hidden dramas, the mess, the pains, the sadness, hope.
When you excavate through these, you find the hidden gems within.
Vitality
Connectedness
Creativity
Sexuality
Transcendence
Pandora was prepared to be brave, prepared to break the rules - a classic rebel. Humankind has rebelled throughout history with the knowing that there’s something more - because we care, we love life. Longing for more. Thirst, Hunger, Desire.
Indulge in your genetic potentials - to not be defined by rules/structures/expectations. To understand that they can dissolve and be permeable.
You have capacity to dissolve, expand and create

Your Facilitators
-
The process of moving from one place to another and from one state of being to another captivates me. I work with my understanding of these processes to provide deeper insight into what gives us joy, reveal meaning and can help us uncover our true selves.
I have practiced Biodanza for nearly three decades and have been facilitating it for ten. I love the connection, joy and music that is so integral to this system and moves people to grow from healthy places within themselves, finding and exploring resources that have previously been dormant.
In 2023 I qualified as a Transpersonal Art Therapist and have been a yoga teacher for the past eight years. Both these disciplines are doorways to what is beyond the personal, and are key ways that I help others create maps to navigate processes of self-care.
In my practice, I draw on the wisdom of what links us to the world around us and help clients access their innate knowledge. Celebrating that we are part of a greater whole and that our willingness to experience what we cannot imagine enables us to live different journeys.

I believe in the power of movement to support us to create the lives we desire. I started my early career as a banker, moving to become a relationships manager across the NFP, corporate and university sectors, and now I dedicate my work to supporting others through personal development and growth.
My offering to community is informed and shaped through Biodanza, relationship & intimacy practices, Argentinian Tango, spiritual practices and martial arts.
I have been dancing Biodanza for over 10 years and became an accredited Biodanza Facilitator in 2023. I am an award-winning Courage & Transformation Coach based in Melbourne supporting my community in Australia and overseas to harness their courage and vulnerability to live life in their own unique way.
I truly believe in the power of humanity to live life vivaciously and one that is aligned with their values.
