The Idea

More than just doing Yoga together

Connection doesn’t always need words. Sometimes it’s a shared movement, a helping hand, a moment of laughter, or simply feeling supported.

Festivals are playgrounds for adults. We leave everyday roles and limits behind, arrive with open hearts, and let every smile, compliment and conversation with a stranger fill them up. This workshop brings that spirit into a playful, structured space.

Through gentle partner stretches, conscious touch and playful exercises, we explore trust, communication and the balance between giving and receiving. Live acoustic guitar carries the space, creating room for movement, laughter, relaxation and genuine human connection.

Some days you want a deep exploration. Other days you just need an invitation to feel and play. Both are welcome here.

Consent and personal boundaries are at the heart of the workshop. Every exercise is an invitation, and participants are encouraged to communicate their needs and respect those of others.

What to expect

An invitation, not a performance

No complicated poses. No pressure to perform. Just an invitation to connect.

Playful partner yoga and assisted stretches

Mindful touch and non-verbal communication

Trust-building and connection exercises

Giving, receiving and supporting each other

Words from participants

Meet the Facilitators

Selina Portratit Strand
Selina
Yoga Teacher & Therapist and Menstrual Health Coach

I know what it's like to feel disconnected from your own body. For five years I lost my period, and no doctor could tell me why. What finally helped was yoga, and the slow, sometimes frustrating work of learning to listen to my body instead of fighting it. 

That experience is the foundation of how I work. In my coaching and yoga, I help people feel safe enough to notice what's happening in their bodies, and to meet themselves and others with curiosity rather than pressure. At a festival, that same skill becomes a playful one. Partner stretches, conscious touch and simple exercises give people a way to explore trust, boundaries and giving and receiving, without needing to perform. I bring the structure so that everyone can relax into the play.

Hiege mit Gitarre
Hiege
Musician, Singer-Songwriter and Sound Engineer

Hiege fell in love with music through rock and heavy metal. He started playing guitar at a young age, and that early dedication led him to play in several bands. He later studied sound engineering, and today he sings, writes songs and produces music across different genres.

He is one of the kindest and most playful people I know. His mantra for life is "Feel, and make others feel." At our workshop, his guitar and voice bring that spirit into the room, creating a space where people can move, laugh and connect.

Our Why

We met at a festival in 2025. We spent only a few days together, and the connection was so strong that we both knew we wanted to see where it could go. Festivals make it easy to move fast. The everyday roles fall away, and what’s left is music, dancing and open hearts.

We both love movement, music and festivals. When we started talking about bringing this workshop to festivals, it felt less like a plan and more like something we had already been living. We want to create more ways for people to connect in these spaces: with a partner they want to see differently, with a long-distance best friend, with a stranger on the dance floor, or just with the moment.
