Our events
Voice Alchemy
Explore how to express emotion through sound, and how to transform that emotional energy into a creative and connective force.
Upcoming events
On Thursday 06.08.2026, we're opening the studio for an intimate gathering.
We will move, listen, sing, and connect, in a warm and unhurried space.
If you have been feeling the call to explore your voice and expression in a safe, playful, and deeply human space. we 'd love to welcome you.
Your voice has been waiting.
Many of us learned to make it smaller. Quieter. Less "too much." We swallowed the sounds we wanted to make, and over time those messages settled in, shaping how we speak, how we create, how we show up.
Voice Alchemy is the space to undo that. We will work with sound to move emotion, to transform it into something connective and alive. You won't control what comes out, and that's where the magic lives. We will hold a strong, safe container so your voice can simply emerge, tender, surprising, raw, all of it welcome.
Come curious.
The event is led by Magda .
When: Thursday 06.08.2026 18:00- 20:00

Barre & Brunch: Joy at Lycka
Dorfplatz Meilen, 31 May 2026
The kind of morning that stays with you.
On Sunday 31 May, we took the class outside. Mats on the Dorfplatz, fresh air, music carrying across the square, sunshine that amplified the burn. A full sixty minutes of barre with the whole square as our studio — the kind of challenge that catches you off guard and makes you smile about it after.
Then we moved to Lycka coffee bar. Good food, laughter, and conversations that made an already good morning even better. Some people came with friends. Some left having made new ones.
Thank you for being there.
Past events
On Thursday 11 December and Friday 6 February, we transformed the studio -candles, essential oils, soft light - for an evening of gentle restorative movement and a singing bowl meditation. Time slowed down. Bodies let go.
We finished with warm tea and the kind of conversation that only happens when a room has gone properly quiet first.
Thank you to everyone who came and brought their energy with them.

Notes from our Community
”This evening was exceptionally well prepared. The atmosphere was a true cocoon-like space: comforting candles, delicate essential oils, and accessible yoga. The Tibetan singing bowl concert was profoundly relaxing, allowing me to experience moments of deep disconnection and almost instantaneous rest. Time seemed to slow down, and my body and mind could truly let go. This was without a doubt the most beautiful, nourishing experience. Thank you, Marta!”

Imagine the focus and strength of ballet, the core control of Pilates, mixed with the effortless flow and power of yoga. Barre is all of that — and more.
Come and discover muscles you didn't know you had through an energising, uplifting set of movements set to amazing tunes. Every move connects to your deep core, we leave no muscles untouched — and yet it's completely low impact. You'll build balance, stability and strength while actually enjoying every second of it. And YES — barre is for everyone: men, women, beginners, athletes. If you have a body, this class is for you.

Feel Good Morning at Strandbad Dorfmeilen
A morning of movement and joyful surprises:
45-min stretch & journaling
60-min Barre class
Lottery draw
Feel Good Morning at Strandbad Dorfmeilen — 24 August 2025
On Sunday 24 August, over 30 people showed up at the Strand Badi Dorfmeilen — some familiar faces, many new ones — for a morning that moved through gentle stretching, journaling, and a full barre class that got everyone glowing. The sun was out, the setting with the lake was beautiful, and the lottery at the end brought the kind of laughter that caps a morning perfectly.
What stays with us is the energy in that group. People who came alone left having connected. Conversations that started on the mat continued over the hours that followed.
Thank you to everyone who was there.
Notes from our Community
”What a beautiful morning. The mix of peaceful stretching, journaling, and an energizing Barre class by the water felt like a mini-retreat. The vibe was so welcoming, and the lottery at the end was the cherry on top. This event actually inspired me to start a new daily habit—I’ve committed to moving every morning now because of how amazing this experience made me feel.”
- Genevieve M.
”Liebe Marta und Team
Der Feel Good Morning im Sommer 2025 mit euch in der Badi Meilen war echt ein Highlight!
Sonne, eure strahlenden Gesichter und beste Anleitung für die einzelnen Körperübungen mit dezenter Musik gaben diesem Event den perfekten Rahmen. Das Barre Workout war für mich neu und die fliessenden Bewegungen erforderten Stabilität in den Haltepositionen und für diese wurde die Tiefenmuskulatur angeregt. Eine ruhige und doch tiefenwirksame Art der körperlichen Betätigung, die im oft so hektischen Alltag den passenden Ausgleich gibt. Eine tolle Combi.
Liebe Grüsse und danke nochmals für dieses grosszügige Angebot."

Barre & Dance: A Spring Workshop
Celebrate the first full day of spring with movement.
March 21st marks the beginning of the new season. After the stillness of winter, this 3-hour workshop is an invitation to bloom: find your center, and start spring with a sense of strength, flow, and community. Let’s move into spring together.
This afternoon will be a journey from the focused strength of the barre to the expressive energy of dance, followed by shared tea and conversation.
Strength & Stability - Barre
We begin at the barre with a deep focus on core stability and leg power to build heat and precision. By waking up the deep muscles of the core and strengthening the legs, you create the stable "roots" necessary to move with confidence and grace.
Expression & Flow - Dance
You will learn original modern dance choreography prepared specifically for this workshop. This is where we put our strength into motion - focusing on expansive movements, musicality, and the joy of dance.
Community & Tea
We will close the afternoon with tea and a light chat. This is a chance to connect with your fellow dancers, meet the teachers, and enjoy the community spirit that makes movement so special.
