Circling Weekend Berlin
Transformational Conection Practice
13-15.12.2024
In Circling we bring meditative acceptance and awareness to what’s happening in the moment in us and between us.
We research what interconnectivity is and explore our perception of reality from moment to moment. What develops can contain the full spectrum of human experience, stretching from emotional revelations, spiritual insights, sensory receptivity, meditative silence and real expressions of aliveness in movement.
When we slow down, focus, and reveal what’s going on between us here and now, we create space for deeper meetings with the people around us and deeper intimacy with ourselves.
👁 We invite you for the 2.5-day journey into deep presence, exploration of authenticity in relationships, and embodiment. We will also integrate elements of harmonic-singing voice opening as a form of togetherness beyond words. 👁
Who is it for?
Do you have a longing to slow down, rest in the presence of a group, and be received just as you are? Would you like to practice exploring other people’s realities with openness and acceptance? Do you wonder what it is like to express yourself with fewer expectations and judgments? If so, Circling can be for you.
Join if you wish for:
-
learning about your relational patterns
-
connect with expanded awareness and deep presence
-
practice self-leadership and maturity of relating to reality and others
-
refine connection to the body and follow its impulses
This event is suited for people trying circling for the first time and any experienced participant.

What is Circling?
Circling is about bringing our presence, aliveness, and vulnerability into connection with one or more people or a whole group. Through circling we develop sensitivity, the skills to effectively communicate our internal states, needs and boundaries to the world and the capacity to regulate and lead ourselves in connection with others and high intensity situations.
Circling is best explored by experiencing it. You do not need to understand what circling is when you attend, in fact it might even be more powerful when you do not understand it yet. Stepping into circling might mean leaving our need to understand everything behind and finding trust in what is beyond knowing.

What will happen?
The core practice we will introduce and explore is Circling, practiced in the lineage of Circling Europe teachings.
We will introduce a variety of exercises that can support grounding in the practice, getting to know its philosophy and atmosphere. These exercises will often happen in pairs or small groups. We will learn by doing, and create spaces of sense-making and debriefing.
The good share of the weekend we are planning to spend in the most open form of the practice called Surrendered Leadership, or Flow. This is when we come as a group and explore the emergence of the present moment from the place of surrender.
During the weekend we will support embodied expression by incorporating elements of non-verbal circling, conscious movement, and harmonic-singing voice opening guided by Karolina.

Karolina I have been facilitating voice workshops at festivals in Denmark, Sweden, and Germany, drawing on years of experience working with voice and traditional multivoice songs. Additionally, I am trained in Modern Vocal Training. Over the past year, I have been studying theatre acting and delving deeper into dance practice. I am passionate about creating spaces for exploration and connection, where individuals can discover the power of their voice and expression.
''Mateusz is a grounded and skilled spaceholder, creating a safe space and guiding everybody into a deeper connection with themselves and their body. He has a great balance between seeing and supporting everybody's needs individually and at the same time taking care of the entire group. The breathwork sessions are a powerful practice where you can get deeper into your emotions and patterns, feeling safe and held.''
The rawness of this wave of honesty! And the intensity of it. And the 'being present' with all there is. Wow. I am blown away! And deeply humbled! Such an undemanding state of 'doing'! And yet, it is so lacking in the everyday.
“It is truly a unique experience to participate in a harmonic singing workshop with Karolina. I have been through this beautiful and emotional journey twice, and I can vouch for the fact that she always gives 100% of herself to it.''
