NEW VISION, NEW YEAR WORKSHOP 2025/26 WITH MARTINA AND ANŽE

Welcome to join us for an unforgettable 4-day workshop. New Vision is a time where we look back with gratitude, celebrate the here and now and create a vision of the future. An open creative space where we express ourselves authentically as individuals and co-create as a group. The workshop takes place for the tenth year in a row and is designed, on a symbolic level, to raise awareness of the darkness and magical part of the winter on one side and the light and hope of the new sun on the other hand.

The workshop will take place in Preddvor (Slovenia) which is a charming small town surrounded by unspoiled nature, breathtaking mountains and is known for its lake, century-old sequoias and 4 castles.

For who is the workshop intended for? For everyone who likes to express themselves through movement and breath and would like to spend the New Year without alcohol. No previous experience in the 5Rhythms practice is necessary. If you can walk, you can dance.

Hall: we will dance in a warm hall with a wooden floor, which is reserved only for our group.

Accommodation: two accommodations have been reserved, which are few minutes drive by car from the hall.

What the participants of the previous New Visions said about the workshop:

“I have no words to describe what I experienced, processed, let go of and gained during my time in Jezersko. Many things are still being resolved for me now, both through visions and aha moments. I am grateful to Anže and Martina for working with heart and for the path that led me to you. Since I started dancing, my life has only been going uphill.” Mateja

“Dear Martina and Anže, thank you for having me in your New Vision workshop! It´s hard to explain in words, what I want to say : I / my nervous system felt that high level of safety with all you guys, that it´s "changing" (me). And here I end with words...

Suddenly, your warmth, I collected, gives me so much confidence and joy to walk through life, that I surprise myself in situations, I would have never done before and now seems natural for me.

Suddenly, as well the other side of the coin shows more : the shadow - the fear. Deep. Ugly. Foggy. Twice this week. As I would now have enough strength to master it, otherwise, it would not show up. At this point, I can´t explain it differently. And yet, when it is over, I have a sense, that it is just a (wrong) choice, an illusion ...  

I will try to use this new energy very carefully and wisely and face (anything) which wants to pass my body with a stoic, loving, present mind. 

Thank you.” Linda

“Dear Martina and Anže,

I would like to share my experience of the workshop with you.

You probably feel that you are a dream team and I wish you to continue to work with such a lovely energy, both personally and professionally.

This love of yours is certainly transmitted to all of us, so appreciate it even more and build on it.

Journey through New Vision was a beautiful experience for me again, because now I can really turn off my head and just dance.

I feel how my movements in dance are also changing, that I no longer have control and that I allow my body to express itself in a unique way. Maybe this is an additional challenge for us trained dancers, because we are constantly locked into a form that must look according to certain rules.

The workshop was great. For the first time, I also allowed myself to completely surrender to the guidance of my fellow dancer and that I trusted every step.

The warrior expression also evoked unwavering energy from me. When we left the old and created a new one, was also a special experience, because the energy showed that I had already done very well with the patterns that I had been dragging behind me until recently.

I enjoyed the performance, which I created with my group.

Although I generally do not like carnival and some transformations, I actually liked the challenge this time. Already when preparing the costume and then at the event itself.

Thank you also for the gifting. I got exactly what I wanted to buy a couple of days ago. The manifestation was immediate, in both directions.

Thank you for the wonderfully spent holidays.

It's nice to spend time with like-minded people and do what you enjoy and brings you joy.” Matea
