Wandering Speedwell is the name under which Theun Smulders performs his compositions: a mixture of folk and rock. The texts are profound and poetic, with connection as underlying theme.

Influenced by metal, folk, pop and rock from the nineties, he has chosen to shut himself down to contemporary influences. “I would like to listen to the music that I want to stream.”

Songs with often long stretched melodies and dynamic twists. There is a lot of repetition in the songs, without being mantras. It works relaxing, meditative and keeps you involved.

An amazing collection of artists in an ever-changing setting. In much the same way that you never step into the same river twice, this maverick group of musicians does not have a set repertoire. They move along with the stream and create an atmosphere that is fitting to the moment. Their music takes you on a journey where past and present meet. Modern sounds seamlessly weave together with those from far and distant cultures. Expect rhythmic (throat)singing, unexpected hums and gorgeous harmonies with raw and tender edges. This extraordinary group will take your breath away and play until you feel the music in your bones. Every performance memorable and unique, time and again they put up a surprising, tantalizing, almost tantric experience that you do not want to miss out on.

DJ DivanA grew up with literally all kinds of music and that is clearly reflected in his sets. From lo-fi hip hop to Persian bass and 80’s disco to psychedelic tunes, he knows how to mix everything together into a deep and very danceable story.

In addition to his various Ecstatic Dance residences, he can also be seen in places such as Noorderlicht & Paradiso, a great addition to our festival! Simply mixing 2 songs together is not enough for him.

Expect surprising transitions, live remixes and tribal loops. The “groove” can vary from relaxed to very energetic.

*Let it flow, the circle of abundance*

Do you still have nice handy things or clothing, made from sustainable and natural materials, but you really don’t use them anymore? Then it’s high time for a new owner! Take them to the festival and put them in the Doorgeefwinkel! And maybe there is something waiting to go home with you … Inspiring books are also very welcome!

Originating from a visit to ‘Burning Man’ (festival USA) where you take everything with you, and I had made jewelry to give away and to share, Claire Magics has grown out of my passion for precious stones. Among other things, I process them in bracelets, ankle bracelets, earrings, and dream catchers. Over the years, more and more new ideas and techniques have been added, so you can also find macramé with me and everything that contains beads.

Beads by Fré was created in 2018, when a beautiful bracelet made of round Aventurine stones cracked. The necklace was too beautiful to put away. Frederique decided to keep the stones and repair the bracelet herself. Actually, she was initially only looking for one way to wear the beads again, but making jewelry and looking for beautiful combinations with other natural products such as shells and wooden beads turned out to be incredibly fun. This is how Beads by Fré was born.

The beads from Beads by Fré jewelry mostly come from distant countries and regions. As a yoga teacher and private, Frédérique travels regularly to Africa, Asia, the Caribbean and in Europe. She takes materials, techniques and natural products from these destinations, which are processed again in the Beads by Fré jewelry.

But not all products come from this far away. Last but not least: parts of your chains, especially the shells, loose wood and feathers, come from Scheveningen! You would be amazed at what beautiful elements nature has to offer here …

A collection of gorgeous gemstones and crystals and beautiful chains. These stones and crystals have been carefully selected and selected for their high frequency energy.

Feel free to come and admire, feel and hug them and see if you are called by one.

We, two sisters-in-law (Sandra – yoga teacher and Judith – sustainable clothing designer) started Zen by Sen because we not only wanted to make beautiful leggings with special prints and a perfect fit, but also because we want to contribute to preserving our planet. Did you know that 640,000 tons of fishing nets are left behind in the oceans every year, causing thousands of marine animals to die unnecessarily each year? We were shocked by this number and therefore started looking for a fabric made from recycled material. We came up with a fabric made from recycled fishing nets that is also sturdy, flexible, strong and beautiful. The result? Leggings in various prints designed by Judith that range from very colorful to more modest and always with a link to the wonders of mother nature. The leggings are made within the EU so that not only the working conditions are good but also the transport kilometers are as limited as possible.

Designed to stand out with love for our planet.

ASMR stands for Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response and describes a tingling sensation in the body that is triggered by acoustic, visual or tactile stimuli.

You relax in the dark during a session. Then special sounds and smells will stimulate and tickle your senses. A healing sound bath, where you can reflect on what you feel coming up inside.

During ASMR life sessions with Lana and Josef you mainly experience loving personal attention and softness. They give the sessions an extra dimension by supplementing soft touches, sounds and smells with blossom remedies (Lana) and light body de-armouring (Josef). This allows energy to get going even better and flow deeper into the body.

The sessions are experienced as profoundly beneficial and very relaxing.

individual treatment – relaxation and body awareness.

In the issues of the day, with the multitude of stimuli coming at us, we are sometimes, before we know it, a ‘walking head.’ And we unintentionally forget the rest of our body. As a result, tensions can store unnoticed. This can manifest itself in pain, stiffness and other blockages.

How are you and your body? In an individual session we take the time to look at this together.

We start with a short guided meditation. And on the massage table I help you with my voice and my hands to make contact with those parts of your body that need attention. I use movement and relaxation techniques such as touch, pressure and rhythmic movements. This helps you to release unnecessary tension and soften your body.

The result is deep relaxation and mental refreshment.

I would like to help you to sink into your body again from your head. You are very welcome!

Sit back and experience instant relaxation.

The festival bustle slides away from you and you come back into your body. You fall in on your own breathing. Allow yourself to be carried by gravity, feel the rhythm of your body, and let me move you. Surrender to this dance, which investigates how your body moves. Movement that makes everything flow, and thereby also initiates silence. In the space that produces this silence, you integrate all the impressions of the day. After my massage you are ready to go on a journey of discovery with even more zest for life, openness and relaxation in your body.

Capoeira is from Brazil and is a combination of dance, music, martial arts, acrobatics and games. Crawling like a tiger, moving like a crab, or like a monkey; we learn to develop all aspects of capoeira together in a playful way. We start with music, and then move slowly together through movement and play towards the end result: playing together in the roda (capoeira circle)!

Dolf van der Schoot has 20 years of experience in Capoeira and has been teaching indoor for almost 10 years – at home and abroad, and recently in The Hague.

Are you coming to join yoga for children?
We are going to move together, relax, fantasize, be creative …

By practicing children’s yoga, children lay the foundation for a self-confident and confident life. Through the exercises and games that are done, children become aware of their body, their breathing, their senses, their limits and their strength in a playful way. They learn to work together and to be admitted with themselves, but also with the other. Kinderyoga teaches children to become familiar with their body and inner experience; What do I want? What does my body say? Do I find this (un) pleasant? Am I relaxed? It increases the self-confidence of children.

Children’s yoga is never competitive. You do what you can in your unique way!

During the lesson dynamic movements are alternated by relaxation. Fantasy, creativity and senses are stimulated. Child-oriented yoga postures are thematically supplemented with songs, dance, (meditation) stories, massage, breathing games and creativity. Social skills are encouraged.

The workshop is for children from 6 to 12 years.

Have you had enough of the hoarseness? Come and land nicely at the sidewalk chalks. Because floating and sidewalk chalks is not a handy combination.

For Krijtman, chalk means transience and enjoying the moment. That it is temporary does not make it any less valuable; the moments that it is there just get extra value. And it reminds him that in the end everything is temporary and it helps him to live more consciously.

Will you come to color the world more beautifully and experience what chalk does to you?
