We all know that emotions can ruin our life. So many of us have already tried different kinds of techniques, coaching and various teacher training courses. And even though we are reading books, repeating affirmations, taking herbs and supplements, meditating and doing yoga we still have PMS, emotional ups and downs: are sad, mad, disappointed, can't fall asleep at night and other dis-ease is present.
So how do we make sense of this? Why is it so difficult to work with our emotions? Why are our negative thoughts still here? Because....we really don’t understand the bigger picture on where emotions fit in which can limit the work we do to emotionally move forward.

Every year, from mid-June to mid-July the PKB (Pesta Kesenian Bali or Bali Arts Festival) comes to the Werdi Budaya Art Center, Jalan Nusa Indah in East Denpasar. Nightly there are performances of both traditional and contemporary dance and music at a number of the six theatre venues here. During the day, beginning at 10:00 a.m. the handicraft and food stalls open, showcasing the best of each regency, with delights for everyone of every age. In the late morning rare forms of music and dance from all over the island are shown - a great time to see some great performances.
In 1979, Bali's governor, the esteemed and loved Prof. Ida Bagus Mantera, opened the very first Bali Arts Festival on June 20th. He stated that “the Bali Arts Festival should take its place as the basic forum for the growth of our love of the arts.” As the arts are such an integral part of the culture, Prof. Mantera wanted to see them celebrated in a place that would be accessible to all. To promote this, most performances are free of charge to the public and those where tickets are necessary are sold at an affordable price to most people.
Each part of Bali has its unique art forms - the weaving of Sidemen, the jegog bamboo gamelan orchestra of Negara in West Bali and the genyek singing of Karangasem in the East. Most Balinese haven't seen all of these forms and this venue was created for both Balinese and visitors to Bali, to highlight the rich cultural heritage this tiny island has to offer.
The festival begins with its Grand Parade on opening day, starting from the Bajra Sandhi Puputan field in Renon and ending at the Denpasar Art Centre. Each regency is represented with a gamelan orchestra and people dressed in their regional dress. Often tall, towering offerings are carried of the heads of colorfully dressed women, once again showing what diversity Bali has to offer. Balinese from all over the island come to watch this parade and it is televised on local TV. It's good idea to get to Renon early in order to get front row seat. Bring a hat and an umbrella as well as a camera.
At the Art Centre itself, exhibitions are set up in the two main halls. Competitions are held of food, costumes, offering making, and pop singing in the indoor Ksiranawa Theater. Performances are held in the huge outdoor Ardha Candra amphitheatre, the wantilan (a small, in the round traditional space), the tetaring Stage outside the Ardha Candra, the Ayodya stage in the old kecak arena in the northeast corner and in front of the exhibition hall by the river.
Some of the most exquisite performances are those done at the Wantilan and the outdoor stages in the evenings and those in the late morning. Here you often find forms, which are dying out, watched by only a handful of people but the spirit of the performance, can be quite moving.
Welcome to a delicious community gathering: an authentic space for singing and dancing our prayer, opening our hearts in love and gratitude, and celebrating the immense beauty of life on planet earth. Cacao (the pure base of chocolate), known as “the elixir of the Gods”, is a powerful and sacred plant medicine that has been used ceremonially for thousands of years across Central and South America. We pay our respects to the ancient while creating a ritual form entirely our own, featuring beautiful live and DJ’s music, voice activation practices, guided meditation, and communal sharing to support us in rising together in love and gratitude. Come gather in community, sing and dance your hearts open, warm your bellies, and ignite be guided by Raio, but the power, grace, and hoy of it will come from each and every individual. As the Quechua say:
Masikunapa! We are all one Family!

Earth is a more magical place than our everyday lives make it seem.
All of us have had intuitive feelings about people or things and have noticed amazing synchronicities in our lives that we feel cannot simply be coincidences.
Others have actually begun exploring the meanings of these things and developing their own powers of intuition, as well as their abilities to feel and manipulate subtle energy.
This is a workshop for both groups of people.
• Learn what Intuitive Abilities actually are, where they come from, and how to distinguish between genuine Higher Insight and one’s own personal desires, feelings, and emotions.
• Principles and Techniques of Psychic Protection and How to Safely Navigate the Non-Physical World and Work with Energy.
• The various stages of psychic development - from feeling intuitive notions to understanding those feelings as possible Higher Guidance to identifying where these feelings and/or messages are coming from to learning to trust and follow them.
• This is a great chance to deepen your meditation practice, as the ability to meditate is key to developing psychic abilities.
• Kundalini is the bio-electric force in the human body that awakens higher consciousness. We will learn what the kundalini energy is and how it works.
• We will also practice various techniques for feeling and working with subtle energy and we will explore the spiritual benefits of understanding the magical non-physical world that pervades our everyday existence.

This workshop is designed for your personal needs as a supplement to your daily movement practice.
It focuses on the eight major joints in the body and how to explore your range of motion, strengthening, and active mobility. This workshop will greatly increase your strength, balance and flexibility in a healthy and safe way to enrich your freedom of movement.

YOGA - MEDITATION - SATSANG
In the heart of every human being lies the universal questions: How can I be happy? How can I be free?
Join Tanya for a yoga and veda deepening workshop to explore the timeless teaching: 'you are the very happiness you seek'. Freedom is available here and now.
Start the day with a deliciously deep dive inward with a hatha yoga (postures) and pranayama (breathing) practice to energize, balance and relax the whole system. The practice will cultivate a sattwic state of consciousness; that is, one that is deeply present, calm, and receptive - a state that is highly conducive to spiritual insight. At this point, seamlessly and skillfully, Tanya will guide you through a deep contemplative meditation -- a journey into a profound process of revelation, where insight arises from within. Following a period of silence and stillness, Tanya will offer satsang (spiritual talk) rooted in in the teachings of Advaita Vedanta (a.k.a - Nonduality), to support the integration of insights, as well as offer context, orientation and practical tools for a fruitful journey forward.
It’s time! It’s timeless! Awaken to the immediate truth of who you are - already whole, already holy, already free.

“To Experience Emotional Healing, We Have to Get Underneath the Layers of Our Own Denial and Fear. Are You Ready to Speak Your Truth?”
Every child born on Earth is conditioned by his or her experiences, parents, and upbringing. All of us suffer pain, and most of us experience some form of actual trauma, at various points in our lives.
The challenge that every human being has is to heal him/herself from pains, traumas, and conditioning that negatively impact our lives and to learn from these experiences. We want to “Keep the Wisdom and Release the Pain.”
Yoga Shows the Way. Many people do not realize that the term Yoga actually means “Union of the Soul with the Divine through Completely Controlling the Mind.”
Far more than just physical exercises, Yoga is, in fact, the Highest Form of Psychology.
“Yoga is a Discipline that Destroys All Sorrows.” - John Kimborough
In this workshop, you will learn:
· What are the Emotional, Mental, and Other “Subtle Bodies”
· How Pain and Trauma are Stored in the Human System and How They Can Be Released
· Yoga Philosophy, Meditation, Visualization, and Breathing Techniques for Emotional Healing and Controlling Your Mind
· The Yogic Definition of True Happiness and How to Achieve It:
“Genuine Healing Always Includes a Return to the True Self, which is the Real Source of Power and Only Source of Stable Happiness.” - Satyatma

A 3-hour workshop with Cat Kabira, designed to inform, inspire and initiate you into the world of energy!
The themes change according to the group’s needs, and in this 3-hour playspace, we may explore:
• The Energy Field (our body, a space, and the collective)
• The importance of Grounding
• Honoring Boundaries (our own and others)
• The Power of Pleasure and Joy
• Personal Power and Energy Leakages
This is your space to experiment, explore, and embody. Cat’s a fan of you testing things out so you can find out what’s true for you. We will practice, move, sweat, rest and drop in deep and feel some deeper currents moving inside of us. These practices will both be with ourselves as well as one another.
Come prepared to learn, get catalyzed, and feeling grounded, lighter, and ready for the universe that’s sparking inside of you.

Cat’s passion is to get you feeling you again: In your body, grounded, meeting yourself in the fullness and full power and pleasure that you are. And if there is some hesitation or resistance you meet along the way, Cat, in a playful way holds space for you to come back home to yourself.

Creativity, Sexuality and the Cycles of our Lives: A Day of Yoga for Women with Uma-Dinsmore-Tuli and Sivani Mata Francis
What is the relationship between creativity, sexuality and the cycles of our lives? How does energy move, as creative and sexual expression, and how does she get blocked? What is the relationship between rest and activity in relation to our creative and sexual cycles? What is the nature of Shakti and how has she been constrained? How can we understand the movements of Shakti? How can the Great Wisdom Goddesses Kamalatmika (the lotus goddess of delight) and Matangi (the wild outcaste poet) support our understanding of creative and sexual energies?
This experiential day long workshop is open to all women and yoga teachers, yoga therapists and health care practitioners who are seeking to support positive experiences of creativity and sexuality in women’s lives, either for themselves personally, or for their students and clients.
The day counts as continuing professional development (CPD) for teachers who have completed prior trainings with Uma, and can also count towards CPD points for general yoga teachers and therapists, depending upon the requirements of their professional associations. Health care practitioners, psychotherapists, sexological body workers and coaches with an interest in yoga, sexuality and creativity are also welcome to attend, provided they have a living interest in and practice of yoga.
The intention of this day is to provide practical experience of breath (pranayama), rhythmic and restorative yoga postures (asana), gestures (mudra), heart-based meditations (yoga nidra) and deep, joyful heart songs (kirtan) that promote healthy creative and sexual energies. Supportive sequences of integrated yoga postures will be taught, and there will be time for discussion. An overview of common creative and sexual challenges and opportunities will be discussed in relation to appropriate yogic responses. By the end of the day, participants will have an understanding of the key practical and theoretical yoga-tantra responses that are helpful to support the expression of women’s creativity and sexuality.
There will be plenty of opportunity for questions and discussions. The programme is open to responsive, intuitive attunements and adjustments to meet the specific needs of those attending.

Exploring Forgiveness: Forgiving Yoga, Ho'Oponopono Ritual & Philosophy with Hubert Muehlbacher
TIME: 2pm to 5pm
During this workshop we will dive into forgiving asanas, share old knowledge and open our hearts to let go. Some old cultures know about the power of forgiveness, how it can clear stuck emotions, solve conflicts and heal human relations. Tools like the Hawaiian Ho´oponopono or the Indian Patrikraman are often used as a daily practice to clean even the smallest judgements and projections that our minds so easily release. With the help of their wisdom, we will bring awareness to our own stories, we will travel into our past to look for what is still open so we can heal and receive a tool for the future that can help us in difficult situations.
How to practice forgiveness? How do we perceive it? Is it possible to forgive being the victim? Explore with us and receive, what some say is the most powerful tool humans can use.

Overcoming the Obstacles of the Mind: Empowering Mind & Body Through Asanas with Nino Mendes
TIME: 2pm to 5pm
We all know that yoga is much more than just standing on our hands or contorting our bodies in extreme positions. Nevertheless, the challenges and insights that a vigorous but fun practice can offer remain a very powerful tool to connect body and mind and gain more confidence and self esteem which are both stepping stones towards self realization. During my personal journey I ventured in acrobatics, circus and martial arts not only to learn new ways to connect body and mind but mostly to face all my inner blocks and limits. If you think you can’t do a handstand or a deep back bend this workshop is for you! If you have reached a plateau in your asanas and you wish to enter the next level, you are welcome to join.... with a focus on strength conditioning, handstand (all levels) and flexibility we will open new possibilities through various exercises that will empower both body and mind... ending with yoga nidra to nurture our inner spaces.
BIO
Nino Mendes originally from France, Nino’s yoga journey began in 2004 when he was introduced to his guru, Sri Dharma Mittra, in New York City. With affiliation to movement his entire life, yoga was not a foreign concept, and he readily recognized that the benefits were beyond physical. After three years of daily practice with Sri Dharma Mittra, Nino completed his teacher training, he began traveling internationally to teach, study and share yoga. In 2012, he moved to China to learn martial arts and fortunately, took the Shanghai yoga scene by storm, inspiring students and teachers alike with his unique flow sequence, synchronous soundtracks and uplifting energy. Nino is an expert in challenging students to break their plateau and reach the next level. He believes the only limit is in our minds and yoga practice is the only path to awaken the sleeping soul and reach our full potential – the true Self. When he is not on tour or teaching, you will find him in a hotel room practicing yoga, studying anatomy in a coffee shop or creating music on the beach.
