~ about our host, Daniel Keersmaekers ~

"I prefer to listen to Nature, learning to read her book. Every little corner is unique and can be a Garden of Eden with our help and standing by. Working with the power of the seeds, elements, wild plants and trees, trying to interfere the less we can, because Nature knows best."

~ Cátia Vieira ~
In this moment of my life, I dedicate mostly to music, clown, puppets and my garden. To make audible the melody of the universe, the freshness of an eternal child, to materialize other bodies and creatures living within myself and learning about patient from plants. That’s about my present process.

My first proposal for this Contac Camp relates to building puppets and masks with children (between 6 and 12). Giving birth to new creatures, discovering how they move, how they talk, how they live… There’s also the possibility to do the same approach with adults. “To give body” to new creatures coming out…



~ Eric Gonçalves ~ 
...I was invited to the world of massage and bodywork long ago and quickly realized that I had found my passion. Since then I was engaged in an incessant search for understanding the mysteries of the human body. My thirst for knowledge led me to the world searching for answers. I spent long periods of time in the United States, Thailand, India and Nepal, where I had the privilege of drinking directly from the source of wisdom of great masters, being forever inspired by their presence.

In this Contact Camp at Marvão I will be presenting Contact Massage. In this workshop, participants are invited to challenge their boundaries on how to touch and to be touched. The whole body is used as a massage tool, exploring sustainable and creative ways of giving a good bodywork session to our partner and to ourselves at the same time.

Who is massaging and who is being massaged ? 



~ Maria Simões~
I am a clown for passion and profession. I have worked since 1994 as a theater professional, and this charmingly instilled all the other arts into my being. I sing freely, I cultivate the earth and the sea, I take care of hearts, I love to plant trees.
Two years ago, I came to Castelo de Vide, land of my grandmother, whitewashed the old house in the medieval village, started to take care of a farm and adopted a donkey almost as old as me.
As a clown and a multi-artist, I have been looking for, in recent years, the expression of a language without words, maintaining social and community intervention as a constant focus of my work.
I believe that art can change the world in what the world has to change.
Recently I discovered in the creative movement the mood of my clown state and I wish I could continue to investigate that.
In the workshop, we will seek to find universal personal humor in each person's movement. We will work without masks the expression of our emotions, vulnerability, fragility and acceptance of failure, as well as find a way to express the truth of each moment and person in their own clown state. It will be a deep encounter with this being that lives within each person and so often hides itself.



~ Rita Vilhena ~ 
"CORPO CUL(NA)TURA"
a practice to reflect the "body culture". Exploration of the movement in resistance, and the corresive-transformative potential with / in nature.

Rita Vilhena is a dancer and choreographer with interest in rituals as a power event in positive encounters and, as a catalyst for personal change, a performance of the self.



~ Rosa Crystal ~
I will offer you an empowerment work on The Wholeness of Being: on how te be a creature creator & Theta brainwaves. From Pain to Truth, from Separation to unconditional Living.

I'm a travelling energy worker who facilitates Theta Healing Thérapie. I'm devoted to share golden experience and knowledge that I have encountered and that i'm continuously gaining on my life`s journey, reaching for connecting to my highest self and so, effortless, flow through and with divine guidance. 

I'm inspired by the paths of fellow human beings, aromathérapie, the feminine nourishing energy, crystals, the power of spiritual practice such as meditation, bodywork & bodymovement, shamanic practices and sound healing. I also offer the creation of personal parfumes in alignment with the supportive healing power of aromathérapie, and intuitive and pressure point massage connected to thw Theta work and shamanic de-armoring. 

I will be offering 1:1 sessions, during the retreat.
