Movement Festival - Landgoed Ottermeer

Over dit evenement

Out of love for movement, music, community, and regeneration, this festival was born.

Our vision is to create a safe space where we come together to move and to inspire each other through our unique gifts — a space where we can learn and grow together. 🌿

The Movement Festival weaves together many disciplines: Dance, Acrobatics, Flow Arts, Martial Arts, Music, Yoga, Wellness, and more. Here, you’re invited not only to move your body, but also to join the movement towards regeneration — of ourselves, our communities, and of Nature.

It is a place of inspiration, creativity, and connection. A playground where we gather to celebrate the joy of movement and surrender to your own natural flow.

From June 10–14, 2026 we will gather at the magical paradise of Landgoed Ottermeer. ✨

I warmly invite you to step into this journey with us. 💃

✨ Festival Areas & Themes

During Movement Festival Ottermeer, you are free to move between different thematic areas. Each area carries its own energy and atmosphere, inviting you to follow your personal flow — from expression and challenge to stillness, integration, and connection.

💃 Dance Area

A space for expression, rhythm, and freedom.
Here, dance unfolds as a universal language and cultural force. Explore forms such as ecstatic dance, African dance, capoeira, floorwork, and contact improvisation, moving from feeling, playfulness, and connection.

🤸 Acro & Acrobatics Area

Moving together, building trust, and exploring edges.
This area focuses on AcroYoga and partner acrobatics — a playful interplay of strength, balance, and communication. Yoga, therapeutic flying, and Thai massage come together in practices that are both grounding and expansive.

🔥 Flow Art & Fire Space

Creative play, rhythm, and transformation.
A dynamic space dedicated to flow arts such as poi, hoop, staff, and juggling. During the day, there is room for practice, experimentation, and jams; in the evening, fire performances and shared fire moments bring focus, presence, and expression into a powerful collective experience.

🧘 Mindful Movement Area

Conscious movement from within.
This area invites you into deep connection with the inner body through yoga, qi gong, breathwork, somatic movement, animal flow, and martial arts as embodied practices. The focus is on breath, intention, respect, and awareness — welcoming both beginners and experienced practitioners.

🌿 Wellness Area

Rest, recovery, and integration.
A peaceful space by the water to land and recharge. With massages, sauna, hot tubs, and gentle rest areas, this zone supports the integration of everything that has been set in motion — physically, emotionally, and energetically.

🌱 Regenerative Culture Area

Movement toward a balanced future.
This area is devoted to regenerative ways of living and relating. Discover sessions on permaculture, food forests, and eco-communities, workshops in conscious communication and community-building, spaces for circles, dialogue, and silence, and practical tools for creating sustainable change — starting from within and growing together.

🎶 Music & Jam Space

Listening, playing, and celebrating.
A dedicated space for live music, jamming, and spontaneous creation. Music becomes a connective force, supporting movement, encounter, and shared celebration.
