In Search of the Elements: Art Therapy and Somatic Yoga Workshop

We invite you to a journey where we will find inner balance and group spirit, inspired by the elements through art therapy and somatic yoga therapy.

1. ELEMENTS: Earth, Water, Fire, Air - the basic elements of nature will inspire us to understand and balance our inner world.
2. Art Therapy: Art therapy creates space for emotional expression and exploration while painting a picture of your inner world. We will discover the reflection of the elements in you through colors, lines and textures.
3. Movement: We will seek the durable flexibility and serenity of the elements in our body through yoga.

• This workshop focuses on drawing inspiration from the elements through art therapy and yoga to discover inner balance and group spirit.
• At the beginning of our workshop, we will start by getting to know the basic elements of nature (Earth, Water, Fire, Air). We will discover the reflections and importance of these elements in the human inner world through movement.

• We are waiting for you on this creative journey in pursuit of the elements. You do not need any art knowledge or yoga practice to participate in the workshop. Anyone who is interested can participate. Art materials to be used in the workshop will be provided by us.
