WATER REMEMBERS is a form of aquatic bodywork that will enable you to embody a sense of true belonging and develop trust in the fluid oneness of the water element. We all come from the womb of our mother, immersed in amniotic fluid. Water is conductive so it can help us remember our true nature, and it can facilitate a natural re-birthing experience.

​

While floating, the absence of gravity combined with conscious breathing and witnessed by our full presence brings us into a dream-like state, a deep meditative zone. We can release stored emotions and patterns, heal trauma and «dance» in union with “Thalassa” our mother sea. The workshop is open to all, no previous experience is needed.

She is a master teacher in Contemporary Dance, Contact Improvisation, Yoga, Alexander Technique, Water Healing & Rebirthing. She has choreographed Drops of Breath, the 1st underwater dance performance in the world with an underwater audience and she is also the creator of Anamnesis, a series of ritual performances in ancient Greek archeological sites.

 

A lover of healing arts and ancient wisdom, Apostolia studied Shamanism, Music, Voice, and Rei-Ki collaborating with inspiring artists, healers, and teachers in many lands. Her highest intention is to keep opening the eyes of the soul and tuning into the frequency of Love no matter how life challenges her. She has been teaching water healing and rebirthing in the water for the last 12 years, in various public and private events. She is a certified Padi Rescue Scuba diver and Free diver.

 

Sophia Michalopoulou is an aquatic therapist and educator who specializes in pre and perinatal trauma release, a newborn and baby swimming instructor as well as a pregnancy and birth doula. Sophia supports the entire birth experience from conception, pregnancy, and birth with water in order to create a more gentle, conscious, and fluid continuum for future generations. 

 

While immersed in warm water, Sophia began to remember her own birth journey during a ten-year process and to see birth from a baby’s perspective. She facilitates the remembering of all human beings so that we can embody more of who we are, overcome a sense of separation and live our lives to our fullest capacities while expressing our unique human potential.
