Live Events & Embodied Journeys

Where self love becomes lived experience.

The Self Love Academy is more than an online path — it’s a living, breathing field of transformation.
Our live events offer a space to move, feel, express, and reconnect in the presence of others. Rooted in body-based wisdom, deep listening, and emotional truth, each gathering invites you back into the heart of your own being.

We mostly work with fixed groups — closed containers that build trust, depth, and safety over time.
But during the summer (and on rare occasions throughout the year), we open our doors for one-off workshops. These evenings are a chance to taste the energy, feel the field, and connect with yourself and others in a playful, powerful way.

All events currently take place in The Netherlands and are guided in Dutch.
But the themes we explore are universal: self-trust, embodiment, boundaries, expression, intimacy with life.

Whether you join us for a one-night Tender Dance ritual or a yearlong deep dive — you’ll be held, seen, and welcomed as you are.

The Art of Being You

A yearlong journey into your body, your truth, and your natural rhythm.

You’ve done workshops.
Maybe you’ve danced, sat in circles, felt glimpses of something deeper.
But often… things move fast.
Too fast for your system to truly land.
Too fast for your truth to unfold at its own pace.

This is where we slow down.

In a world that asks you to perform, fix, and figure it all out —
we offer you something else:
a soft, anchored return to the body.

Twelve evenings. One grounded group.
A safe place to come home — to the you beneath the noise.
The one who feels. The one who knows. The one who’s been waiting.

Each month we explore a theme that touches your essence.
You’ll learn to listen to your body, soften your defenses, express your truth, and hold space for the parts of you that were never fully seen.

Not in isolation — but in shared presence.
In a group that meets you where you are.
With breath. With truth. With love.

This live program is deeply rooted in the online course A Path to Self Love,
which forms the backbone of our journey.
You’ll follow the modules at home, at your own rhythm.
And in our live sessions, we bring them into your body — through dance, touch, voice and reflection.

From insight to embodiment.
From knowing… to becoming.

✨ Themes we explore:

  • Presence & the Nervous System — Why we disconnect, and how we return

  • Defense Mechanisms & Feeling — From avoidance to embodiment

  • The Inner Critic — Soften the strategies that once kept you safe

  • Triggers & Relational Freedom — From unconscious repetition to conscious choice

  • Boundaries & Protection — Feeling and honoring your inner no

  • Intuition & Self-Trust — Reclaiming the body as compass

  • Embodied Action & Integrity — Living in alignment with your deepest truth

Tender Intensive

A deep dive into self love, dance & truth.

The Self Love Academy invites you into a space of transformation — a sacred container where your raw, soft, fiery self is welcomed and seen.

Tender Hearts Intensive is more than a dance program.

You’ve danced before.
You’ve tasted tantra.
You’ve touched something real — for a moment.
But it’s hard to stay there.

Hard to stay in your body when it gets intense.
Hard to trust your yes and your no.
Hard to drop the control and truly let it unfold.

This journey is for those who are ready to go deeper.
Not with more effort — but with more presence.

The Tender Intensive is not just a dance program.
It’s a sacred space to meet yourself — and the other — again and again,
in truth, in vulnerability, in embodied power.

We work with Tantric Dance as our base,
but we slow it down. Way down.
We tune in, not perform. We listen with the body.
We lead not from force, but from attunement.
We follow not in submission, but as a living, breathing muse.

This is a space where:

  • You get to express what was hidden.

  • You get to feel what’s long been waiting.

  • You get to move what words can’t hold.

We dance, speak, share, and release.
We cry. We shake. We soften.
We practice relational leadership — not to control, but to serve presence.

This is not a performance.
This is a practice of being seen — fully, messily, beautifully.

💫 This journey is for you if you...

  • Are ready for more than a one-off workshop

  • Want to practice real, raw intimacy

  • Are done with pleasing, performing, and fitting in

  • Long for authentic connection — with yourself and others
