DANCE OF WATER
The body becomes a map, the water your partner, the breath your navigation.
Each day feels like a small ocean — where you learn to be the wave, the current, and the depth all at once.
This is a space for those who don’t just want to move, but to feel movement from within — to live their emotions through the body and the water, to connect their inner state with the power of the ocean.
For 10 days, we will soften, listen and become water.
Our mornings will begin with somatic exploration, freediving breathwork, and water dance sessions — in both shallow sanctuary and deeper blue.
During the day – exploring the reefs, dance jams on the beach, relaxed chats in the shade, and at sunset, creative exchanges in our open-air studio by the Indian Ocean.
Our connection to the water element is sacred.
It speaks not only to our bodies, but to something older —
a memory that lives in the tide of our breath,
in the echo of waves curling beneath our skin.
Yes, it is true we are mostly water.
But the truth is deeper still: Water moves us. Water speaks us. Water is life remembering itself.
On the island held by the ocean, and a circle of kindred bodies the life is deliciously slow - to tingle the senses, to let our aquatic selves re-emerge, and get surprised with the deep changes.

- Daria DIVE— a travel organizer and documentarian who works through direct immersion in the environment and personal involvement.
In her projects, she creates natural conditions for exploring movement, presence, and interaction with nature.
Observing people, she captures moments when contact with water, space and its inhabitants, and with community becomes a creative experience and a way of being in the present. - Tatiana Galibus— Tatiana is a dancer, choreographer, somatic practitioner, and certified artfreediving instructor. With over two decades of experience in movement, performance, and body-based research, she weaves together the language of water, dance, and deep listening.
She is the founder of Fluid Roots, where somatics meets poetry, and the body becomes a vessel for inner and outer ecology. Her work draws from Continuum movement, freediving, and underwater dance, creating spaces where slowness, sensation, and presence unfold like tides.
Tatiana guides her sessions with softness and precision, inviting each participant to rediscover their liquid self — to move not for performance, but for pleasure, connection, and transformation.
In this retreat, she co-creates a gentle yet powerful journey into aquatic embodiment, creativity, and reconnection — where the sea is both studio and sanctuary.
The hotel is fully equipped with everything you need. You can choose between two comfort levels — shared or private accommodation.
