Katja is an Artist, Dance Therapist and Movement Medicine teacher. For many years she lived a nomadic live, traveling to wild places and then lived for 7 years in a garden, in deep communication with the elements, plants, the sounds of nature and the deep dark night sky. She learned how Earth speaks to humans through their hands and feet and heart, how our human souls are earth and how much we can explore as earth. The call for community called her back from the wild places, closer to people.

She learned to be a bridge for those who long to return to their deepest selves through contact with Fire, Earth, Water and Air. Katja brings her particular and deeply soulful way of perception into her offerings. Her way of guiding is rooted in her trust in the original creativity of Life. The energy that arises through playful spontaneous creativity, allows us to  discover and value ourselves, return to the connection with our deepest and wildest imagination and to experience how magical and beautiful every one of us is.
