25-29 June 2025
Lesvos island – Greece
Are you ready to say yes to the dance that transforms?
Born in Berlin, the Conscious Dance Festival® expands beyond its urban roots into a five-day retreat set in the natural beauty of OSHO Afroz in Greece. This unique setting offers space and stillness—an invitation to dive deeper into the world of conscious dance and meditation in movement.
When you’re not dancing, you’ll have time to unwind in true Greek style: sunbathe on serene beaches, swim in the crystal-clear Aegean Sea, and relax into the vibrant, meditative atmosphere of the Afroz campus.
This retreat is a celebration of freedom, creativity, and presence. Through movement, you’ll release tension, rediscover your playfulness, and reconnect to the essence of who you are. No previous dance or meditation experience is needed—just a willingness to move and be moved.
