At Home in Rhythm – Connected through Sound. TaKeTiNa and Vocal Improvisation in Jena

Music does not merely originate in the external world - it begins within. Rhythm resides in every step, every breath, and every movement of our bodies. Our voices carry melodies long before they form words.

Using your body as an instrument, this special weekend offers you the opportunity to strengthen your intuition, presence, and inner stability through musical encounters, while also fostering your capacity for self-expression. Within the two complementary experiential spaces TaKeTiNa and Body Music you are invited to experience yourself in entirely new ways: powerful, playful, and deeply connected.

Both methods utilize rhythm, voice and movement, yet they approach them from distinct perspectives. TaKeTiNa guides you deep into your embodied awareness by engaging with fundamental rhythmic structures through stepping, clapping and singing. In this process you can experience a profound sense of presence and inner stability, while simultaneously exploring how to find calm amidst complexity, how rhythmic challenges bolster your resilience and how - through repetition and flow - you can come into perfect harmony with yourself.

Body Music, on the other hand, opens up a creative space for musical improvisation: here voice and movement become tools for self-expression, playful interaction, and sonic freedom. Through circle songs, free-form sound experiments, and body-centered vocal work, music is allowed to emerge where it is most alive: in the present moment, in the interplay between participants and in the act of truly listening to one another.

I will be facilitating this workshop in collaboration with Alexandra Mieth.
