From local guest house to 5-star hotel, let's connect so that we find you the perfect room! We'll make sure you are with other participants.
Following the enthusiasm generated by their 2023 workshop in Geneva, "At the Heart of the Spiral" (Sufi dance and drawing), Gaia and Vivian'Adaya come together once again for this new offering… something they have dreamed about and worked on for the past few years!
Vivian'Adaya will guide you in the vibration of a conscious dance through the sacred figures of Egyptian dances and the mystical intoxication of the Sufi tour.
The exploration of one's inner self will take place step by step, leading to the bliss of movement, in a sculptural stance and a focused inner gaze.
From this altered state of consciousness, inspiration will flow from your heart in your art and life.
ABOUT VIVIAN'ADAYA: Oriental and Egyptian Dance Teacher at the School of Ethnology in Geneva, Switzerland.
Gaia Orion will invite you to experience the life force of your being that arises through the creative process. Like a scribe working on a precious scroll, we will draw our mystical essence.
This workshop will be introspective and interactive; it will be uplifting and enchanting for your spirit. Come with an open heart and curiosity to allow yourself to be transported by the process.
Viviana knows the city like the back of her hand and will let us know where to go for the best hammam, massage, henna tattoos and more! I also have been to Marrakesh three times.
❤️If you always wanted to visit Morocco, this is your chance, you will be in good hands❤️
Vivian’Adaya’s dance classes are so much more than just belly dance classes. Entering her studio is first and foremost about discovering a world of kindness where everyone feels welcome and where you will not only learn subtle belly dance techniques, but above all, learn to connect with yourself, your femininity, and the world around you. Vivian’Adaya is much more than a teacher; she offers guidance through movement, grounding, and introspection to help you reach the full potential of self-expression.

A unique and exceptional week with Gaia Orion. Without even realizing it, we all went straight to the depths of our being. And we emerged healed, enriched, and ready to handle future situations that life will bring us with greater ease and dignity.
— Bianca, Artist and Healer, Switzerland
A confident, personal and peaceful leader, Gaia Orion creates a context in which we not only access our inner artist, we discover what she longs to reveal. Her meditative style is empowering. Her ready laughter is freeing. Gaia communicates a deep understanding of the Universe and the interconnected nature of reality in both her visual works and leadership. She is an important teacher in these evolutionary times.

This week with Gaia Orion is something I will cherish for the rest of my life. I’ve never experienced such a beautiful sense of community, being held in a space where I felt so safe and able to explore all these avenues of expression.
