Day retreat, express yourself!

In this mini retreat you can experiment with your own body, consciousness and voice.

It is a short but intense daytime retreat with Alice Rientjes and Wim Verhoeven as main facelitators.

We start the day with getting acquainted and move on to dance and bodywork.

Afterwards there is a healthy lunch and a short break.

After this break, Alice will take you on a discovery of your own voice through voice expression.

This can set a lot in motion, so we take another break before we start with the breathwork.

We close with soup and tea.

Who is Alice Rientjes and what is voice expression?

Voice expression is about the way of courage and the way of recognition. 

Finding it exciting, letting that be there completely, but also doing it. 

Voice expression helps you to acknowledge, feel and bring out with sound what lives inside you. 

By sounding and singing you often come across old feelings and beliefs. 

All those times you didn't say what you felt, the times you held back to say what you wanted, but also insights or good ideas that you didn't dare to express. 

Recovering and re-membering how to express ourselves. 

Where we have stopped expressing ourselves, giving sound or words to our feelings, needs or boundaries, with voice expression you learn to connect with those parts in you again. 

So that those parts in you, do not remain stored in your body, but are allowed to move freely again, that it may flow again, thaw out from the freezing, out into the world. 

Healing in the zone of discomfort.

Voice expression helps you connect with your physical body and with your core, that which you really are. 

There is often a lot going on in our subconscious that prevents us from using the voice. 

Because making your voice heard is also about taking up space and being visible and that is still exciting for many people, with voice expression you learn to be comfortable with the feelings that it evokes in you. 

It's not about being able to sing beautifully, it's about being allowed and especially that it can be fun and serving to use your voice and above all very liberating!

Alice once started as a singer and performer in the Dutch Theaters, taught at conservatories and academy of small arts. 

She discovered that there is so much more hidden behind the voice and the performer. 

As soon as she started working with the human behind it, the voice and the performance became more powerful and more personal. 

She retrained and now has a thriving practice in Belgian Limburg. 

She works with emotional bodywork, breath, voice & systemic work. 

Alice gives you tools for everyday life to connect with your true self and your soul mission, but also with your pain. 

She herself has been involved in yoga, personal development, bodywork and meditation for 15 years, did several courses and learned from Gurus in India and various Shamans. 

She has seen all the theaters of the Netherlands as a singer, but now she has found her right "audience". 

People who want to grow, heal, develop and put their true selves into the world with all their hearts.
