This year, we warmly invite conscious movement teachers and practitioners from around the world to gather just outside the vibrant city of Belgrade, Serbia.

We’re stepping into something new—a space of shared learning through co-creation and collaboration. This is a living, breathing field of resonance, where what arises is shaped by our presence in community.

The program for this year’s Gathering reflects that spirit. It is both thoughtfully structured and open to emergence—a supportive container for our theme, Field of Resonance, offering a stable foundation for scheduled sessions while leaving room for spontaneous contributions to unfold.

An Inclusive Experience for All
Whether you’re a teacher-in-training, a seasoned practitioner, or somewhere in between, this Gathering is an open invitation to connect, explore, and grow together.

TG 2025 is not just a Gathering—it’s a collaborative journey where every participant is both a teacher and a learner, contributing to a dynamic and inclusive community.
