About the workshop:
Yoga
IVANA RODIN is a certified Kundalini Yoga and Raja Dhiraja Yoga teacher. She trained and got teaching degrees at Himalayan Yoga Institute and K.R.I.Y.A. (Kundalini Rising Institute of Yoga Awareness). Both Schools registered at the Yoga Alliance. Ivana offers a sustainable, safe and tailored approach to all participants. In her classes, Ivana trains participants to move in an organic way synchronising the breath with the movement and paying great attention to the correct body alignment. In particular, she enjoys teaching Kundalini Yoga because she finds it to be one of the most transformative yoga practices offered today in the yoga field. Kundalini Yoga, also known as the Yoga of Awareness, is open to everyone, for people of all ages, regardless of their previous yoga experience. This practice relies on ancient yoga technology, developing overall physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health. It's a dynamic and powerful practice that will give you a unique experience of your Soul. On my yoga journey, I discovered an entirely new world, a world full of potential which enabled me to calm my mind, connect with my true Self and fill my Soul with joy.
MORE ABOUT ME
Even though my background is in Economics, I have always enjoyed reading and learning about eastern philosophies, spiritual teachings, and healthy lifestyle habits.
My first encounter with yoga practice was in 2007, in my hometown Rijeka. After the class, I felt so vibrant and dissimilar to any other physical activity or sport I had done before. I was keen to continue with the practice. In 2011 my Multinational Company where I used to work sent me on an assignment to London. Who would have thought I would dive deeper into the yoga ocean in one of the busiest cities in the world? Well, it was there that I met my Yoga teacher Mythili. She taught me the importance of self-love. I do not refer here to selfcentered love. Still, more to a healthy approach towards yourself when you acknowledge your qualities, have enough self-confidence, and believe that you deserve the best. While in London, I felt blessed to explore and practice different yoga styles led by renowned teachers. I participated in numerous classes and workshops of Hatha, Vinyasa, Kundalini Yoga, Iyengar, Yin Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Womb Yoga, and Yoga Nidra. After ten years of yoga practice, I felt a strong desire to share my yoga experience and assist people to feel happier and more fulfilled in the fast-paced society we live in today. I took a sabbatical leave and did yoga teacher training at Himalayan Yoga Institute and K.R.I.Y.A. (Kundalini Rising Institute of Yoga Awareness). Both Schools registered at the Yoga Alliance. In 2019 I decided to take a leap and follow my mission. I opened my own business, and everything else is history :-)

Breathwork
The workshop will be divided into two parts. In the first part, we will discuss polarities especially those related to the theme of the festival. The second part will be a practical breathing exercise. In breathwork, you can expect extensive breathing sessions and various self-transformative methods. It is not suggested to people with significant health problems (heart or kidney issues, mental diseases, critical blood pressure, epilepsy...). The workshop aims to reach deep into relaxation and touch the subtle inner levels of personal existence. This challenging and demanding work could tell you more about yourself and lead you to a personal crisis or give you a fresh life – power. Therefore, we ask kindly all participants for discretion and support regarding others. Lead by: Hrvoje Gebavi
Contact Tango
ConTango - (Un)BOUND
workshop & JAMilonga
BE OPEN & LISTEN & ENJOY & SURPRISE
Tango gives you form, stability, rhythm, Contact Improvisation softens it with some impact of freedom, experiment, playfulness. They are two sides of the ContacTango.
Melting opposites like bound-unbound, male-female, connection-freedom, inside-outside, listening-responding, tension-release, leading-following, body-mind in the midst of the dance.
Dance is step to unknown.
It is simple, kind & fun.
Welcome to upgrade & revive your tango with some tools from contact improvisation, authentic movement practices and general inquiry. Practicing them helps us develop our capacity for good connectivity, softness, tenderness, attentive listening to yourself & your partner, openness for the new movement possibilities, playfulness of the dance, understanding of the subtle change of leading roles, questioning prejudices of your mind… Opening up new dimensions.
But! it needs some fierceness to let go of the security of the known movements and combinations in order to find freshness, fluidity, connection, authenticity, playfulness, enjoyment, aliveness, awakeness…

My dance background is 30 years experience in contemporary dance, contact improvisation, 17 years of aerial silk, 13 years of tango, 7 years of conTango. Over last few years I’m developing contemplative movement practice Authentic BODY Presence, where through movement and voice we embody the multidimensionality of all our bodies (physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, light…) Is a transformative practice of self-healing and integration.
I have been sharing my dance view lately in ConTango festivals in Germany at the international Festival of Contact Improvisation and Tango at Schloss Beichlingen and festival in Stuttgart in 2021. I’m really happy to share it again in Tango Experiental festival in Fužine this year. I find ConTango very refreshing to improve Tango perspectives. I’m really looking forward to see you there.
