On the Concert
We are so excited to be hosting Ayla in Belgium for the first time with her Honour The Water Tour. This concert is going to be very special as part of this evening will be gathering with shared intention to Honour the Water. The Waters of this Earth that give and sustain all life, the waters of life that flow within us and the deep waters of our emotions and inner world.
Ayla is a multi-lingual ‘world folk’ singer-songwriter and a visionary musical artist weaving together a stunning repertoire of original poetic songs with traditional and tribal music.
With a growing international presence she has become known as ‘A voice of the Earth’ and is a powerful sound in the rising global community of people who are committed to living in harmony with the Earth. Ayla’s music has taken her around the world with her live performances that provide a sacred, intimate, heart-opening space for all who are present. This artist sings the song of the spirit and embodies the tales she tells, expressing a music that reverberates with deep heart, wisdom and soul. To experience the essence of this young songstress is to be taken down a musical journey that ultimately leads us back to the very core of our own inner existence.
Our voice brings us home to ourselves, our body is our portal, our Voice is our tool, our silence is our home
For every ticket sold to both events Ayla is also planting a tree through the incredible organisation treesisters.org who have now contributed to reforestation through many countries across south America and Africa by planting over 26 Million Trees! WOW! Please take a moment to check out their incredible work and see what a wonderful project you will supporting by purchasing a ticket for either of these events.
************
After the concert of Ayla Schafer, you can enjoy an intimate Poetry in Motion, Gentle Flow . This will be held and guided by movement keeper Caroline S'Jegers.
In her poetry, Caroline creates fine soundscapes of sensory motion. Gently blending her love for poetry and music, she opens a space where your mind relaxes, your body starts moving and your heart blossoms. And as Rumi so beautifully shares: ‘let yourself become living poetry’. Soft or wild. Inward or outward. All or no-thing. And all the layers in between. Welcome to move and be moved!

On Song of the Soul - SOLD OUT
Each one of us carries our unique soul voice, a powerful tool gifted to us to connect and communicate with life. The Song of our soul is the intimate expression of our true nature, the spontaneous sound of our spirit. To truly sing is a journey of remembering, getting out of the way, and trusting in ourselves as we surrender to the spirit of sound in us.
Our voice is the only instrument created by God, it is our connection to the naked truth of our being and to the prayers that silently carry with us. We were born to sing.
This is a journey of deep discovery; unveiling our naked and untamed voice and awakening the power of our free expression. We do not 'learn to sing', instead we unlearn and release the judgment, fears, and blockages that hold us back from something that is our nature.
Ancient ways remind us what it truly means to sing and use the song as tribal people have done for millennia; to connect and speak with the spirit of life, to heal and transform, to celebrate, to realign ourselves, and to pray, so that we can step more fully into our soul purpose in this life.
Our voice brings us immediately into connection with ourselves, each other, and the present moment. Weaving between sound and silence, resting in the stillness from where our sound comes from; we return to the source of Life itself.
Our voice brings us home to ourselves, our body is our portal, our Voice is our tool, our silence is our home.
