Words of Participants
“A lot of warmth, joy, we feel like a dancer, we dare, we dare to move, there is a diversity of universe, we don't want it to stop... a chance to participate.
“We feel at ease whatever our dancing level and our initial fear . “
“2 words: revelation and liberation, we leave feeling relieved, re-energized, fully inspired.“
“Beyond my expectations, a real personal therapy beyond dance, without me really expecting it. ”
“It goes by itself in fact, there are proposals, a methodology, a pedagogy which really allows us to express on who we are and simply to be. ”
“It was truly magical!” the proposals that Mariona offered us, the group, the richness and variety of the activities proposed. "
“ Really exceptional both in terms of the organization of the details that are given, it puts us at ease immediately, and of the group, super warm with incredible energy. “
“Experiencing the creativity and this lightness that is within us, and that’s really fun! thank you.
" It was intimate too, great respect, great attention, a very rich experience on a personal level, instructive about oneself, cheerful.
“A lot of joy and light, we really see all the facets of the human character through this day!
“ A disconcerting, magical letting go, in a natural way, I let myself be carried away from start to finish”
“It allowed me to tap into unknown resources, moving out of my comfort zone.
As if a blockage had been removed, barriers that had been there for a long time which prevented me from expressing my own self.
“Reconnecting to my joy, which I had forgotten a little, perhaps because I was no longer able to access it on my own.
In fact, I was surprised all the time, there were moments when it allowed me to relax stuff I didn’t even know I needed to release….
“Simply enchanted by the no-brainer, very humanist approach to dance, a generosity and kindness that puts the whole group at ease and engages with disconcerting simplicity....
