Workshops
Below you find the workshops you can join at Unifant festival. Workshops are for free or donation based!
Also keep an eye out for more announcements on Facebook.
Kirtan-Bhajan Singing with Joline Maria Luijckx
Singing is part of the expression of life.
Even before we started talking, we were already humming. Singing stimulates right brain activity which makes the thinking part of the mind takes a backseat.
As a result we feel rested, balanced and energized. When we chant Sanskrit mantras it has an impact on consciousness.
It will send positive vibrations into the atmosphere and creates more positivity and light in our (collective) mindsets.
Bring your instruments and soak yourself into the music!
Spikeball Workshop
Mens sana in corpore sano is a famous latin phrase and we at Unifant festival take that very seriously! Time for a sporting activity!

Yoga with Fran Moulder:
Fran Moulder will join us again to start the day with a wonderfull yogaclass! This year she also treats us to some Yoga Nidra in the afternoons :-)
Yoga Nidra means Yogic Sleep and is between 15-45 minutes of deep relaxation.
The practice creates space for deep healing by tapping into the sub conscious mind and therefore changing old habits and conditionings.
It's an amazing therapeutic practice proven to help with conditions like insomnia, anxiety, stress, addictions and trauma.
Enjoy!
Unity Bracelet
Silvia loves colors, a lot, everywhere…
Original from Braga, Portugal, she moved to intercultural Dublin, gloomy city colored by diversity.
The biggest inspiration for her handmade art is our mother land of all, Africa.
The sound, the shapes, the smells, the colors, the music… it all flows into her art.
Her beads are made out of polymer clay and moroccan natural pigments, after coloring and being shaped into the clay, it’s hardened in the oven, sanded, polished and, finally, varnished.
Bring colors to you everyday life with these handmade African crafts, make your own jewelry, design your own fashion.
