Dhyana was born in Colombia and moved to Germany in 2003 to study graphic design. After her work experience in the advertisement world she felt the urgency to discover herself and gain more understanding about life. Nowadays she is a passionate lover for meditation and dance with a vast experience in different meditation techniques, therapy work and movement practices.
With active meditations, which use movement as a means to stillness and silence, Dhyana discovered a new approach to meditation: movement as a doorway to oneself, to feelings, and to more presence in daily life. This transformational process motivated her to become a certified facilitator for OSHO Active Meditations and OSHO Meditative Therapies. Following the thread of other techniques that use movement as meditation, she travelled to Turkey and learned first-hand the mysteries of Sufi mysticism from Sufi masters like Oruç Güvenç. She facilitates Whirling workshops, initiating other meditators and dancers in this ancient tradition. In recent years, she has been exploring the body-based approach of Dance Alchemy – a simple and yet efficient therapeutic practice that helps to be more resilient to life challenges, to open up to feelings and to be able to stay present in the heart space. She became a Dance Alchemy practitioner and continues inquiring the relationship between consciousness and movement. Dhyana created Whirling in Berlin, OSHO Colombia, and co-founded and organizes the Conscious Dance Festival® – a project that started in Berlin and expanded to Barcelona, Lisbon, London and Lesvos, Greece. Feeling at home in water and using its healing qualities to overcome fears and expand relaxation, she created the experiential group Meditative Freediving, and offers one-on-one Aquafloating and Dance Alchemy sessions. She facilitates at the OSHO International Meditation Resort and other Meditation Centers around the world. For upcoming events click here. |
