The „Atelier für Heilkunst” (Studio for Healing Arts) offers a wide range of activities to help you reconnect with your true nature. Lika, who also frequently runs painting workshops at the Dancers’ Village, opens her yurt village in the Alentejo, Portugal, for various retreats, one-to-one sessions or small groups, offering support through expressive painting, polarity work, meditation and dream work. The focus is on rediscovering, unfolding and consciously applying one’s own wisdom and creative power. At the Atelier für Heilkunst, spaces are created in which the consciousness inherent in every human being can unfold freely and creatively.
feuerfunkenzauber is a small workshop in Schwäbisch Hall run by Madlen.
Clothing – for comfort
To dance well, you need comfortable clothes that you feel at ease in. And that doesn’t just apply to Contact Improvisation.
The designs are developed in-house and lovingly crafted from organic cotton blended with elastane.
Currently available are the ‘Frühlingserwachen’ feel-good trousers and the ‘Sommerglück’ design, as well as boiled wool trousers for cooler days and leggings.
Please feel free to visit her website and get in touch if you’d like to place an order.

Karin guides individuals and organisations into the depths of their hearts, helping them to recognise and pursue their true purpose. She is a long-standing close friend and confidante of André, with whom she shares a deep connection in supporting one another to realise their true potential. Karin is currently supporting the Dancers’ Village project through a series of interviews with the association’s members, which also serves to heighten awareness of each individual’s inner connection to and place within the project.
Her book “NEU – an intimate dialogue with life” is an inspiration for the shift in consciousness from separation to connectedness.
PeMa Art is Pete’s company, through which he offers ‘dance and healing spaces’. Originally founded in 2019 by Pete Guy Spencer and Marie Chabert as an exploratory space for ideas, research and multidisciplinary performances based on contact improvisation. It was there that the pieces “Phe-NoumeNow!” (2019), “Striking Chords” (2021), “UnDone” (2022) and “Paused Patterns” (2023) were created, which premiered in London, Freiburg and Radolfzell. In parallel, they ran CI workshops on a wide variety of topics.
Pete continues both activities, primarily as a CI teacher at KonsTANZ, and now also at international festivals in the D-A-CH region. Since 2022, Pete has been enthusiastically teaching at our jams, as he has long felt connected to the Dancers’ Village concept within the CI research space, with all its diverse nuances. PeMa Art stands for dance, creativity, safe, mindful healing spaces and playfulness. More info here:
'Wandlungsräume' (Transformative Spaces) offers workshops for body, mind and soul, designed for courageous change-makers.
Through Wandlungsräume, Nela Adam and Magdalena Trischler aim to help create a world that can be touched, and to realise their vision of treating ourselves and our planet with care.
They invite profound processes of change, strengthen anchors for everyday life and an awareness of inner alignment, drawing on cyclical processes of transformation. They see personal change as the foundation for collective change, and aim to develop powerful perspectives rooted in heartfelt connection. We have had the pleasure of experiencing their work at several Jams.
