Archetype Consultant, USA
I will say that your program was a good exploration of my body. I was able to enhance the confidence level in movement. Which is why I would’ve enjoyed doing more movements workshops with instructors to continue that flow of confidence.  I think I’m ready to do live/in person classes. I enjoyed all the dances and the exercises you provided.

The most important insight that I gained through the process was overall insight of existence of the archetypes in us and seeing others dance different archetypes. Like magic. I think this is an interesting approach to getting to know yourself.

I go back to your classes to help me learn the real power of dance and move away from looking at dance merely as an aesthetic and beautifying medium, which it is.

Just felt like saying thank you! I still practice the shaking u made us do in your classes!

The most important insight that I gained through the process was how important, empowering and healing it is to show and share my vulnerability,my flaws, my, doubts and fears, my strength, my light and weirdness with others and in front of others. Though being quite a lone wolf, it was important for me to be in a safe, and secure open environment with like hearted people who mirror you, give you honest and constructive feedback, where you can be yourself and  are not being judged- introduce yourself through your body and your movement first - Trust! wow! - how much I looooooooooooooooooove dancing, moving expressing through my body!!! During these days I felt like i was fully aligned with myself after a longer period  again: I gained so much inspiration and motivation and confidence about being who I am back. And got pointed out where to work on and look closer also on not so favourite topics. Its a wonderful and revealing blend of embodying and working with your personal astrology background and Archetypes which are placeholders for certain Characteristics that can  support you on your journey, your understanding of yourself and life - of how´s and why´s. Expressing it through our body and the wisdom gives you the chance to cast off being stuck in the mind and overthinking or even directing from there.

Dear Sandra, I acknowledge you to be an inspiration to me , my practice and my life. In your classes, in your lessons, you guided me back to the core of Dance, Love and Beauty of movement. Thank you for being a power to re- awaken. A rebirth. I love you, I love life!

James Mweu - yoga teacher, Nairobi - Kenia 2014

The most important contribution of this process we have had to my life is the experience of being - to be whole, with all your being. Know that the right judgments and decisions come from this state. It was so sweet and beautiful to me - there was no particularly difficult moment. Perhaps the most difficult moment (but not really) was to accept that my decisions sometimes or many times more than myself come from some insight into the environment, even when it may not need it at all. A special insight was: "In my essence, I am wild and free, strong and brave. Follow this, but do not neglect the intellect. Write it down. Read on. Go to the end." I can relate insight into the martyr to my everyday life. What I do is sometimes so wordless that I can't share it with others. The path I walk is a little lonely, yet worth my sacrifices. Just Go ahead. Scribe - I still wonder about him. He encouraged me to use my mind as a tool and not sweep it under the rug because of its general annoyance. A new perspective was encouragement to dance. An incentive to move myself, an incentive to invite others to do the same. Let me invite you. Let's get down to dancing. A process of embodying archetypes is a wonderful insight into yourself through breath and body and intuitive guidance.

Dancer & Artist, Norway

I was not fully present all the time, not necessarily in a peak with my imagination and ability to share it. However, in the end, I learned a lot. For me personally it turned out to be a great gift. Especially the last few days, twisting my ancle, having the experiences in the little village, my perspective changed. I re-remembered my love for dancing. I re-experienced the moment. Coming back to Copenhagen, I have been thinking a lot about how we structure our lives, what makes sense and not. I also came back to a Copenhagen with a newly elected blue blue government. Neo-liberalism is taking over, even here in Scandinavia. It makes me question very basic things, and in a way it is confusing. What is the point if there is not the will to share/support? And many other questions and reflections, to go into them would make the e-mail many pages long. However, my point was that I believe very much that our society has a need for people like you who work hard to bring things back to basics and share that. Thank you for that.

I learned why an archetype is important, how it is used, which archetype is appropriate for our restaurant. Through dance, individual and group treatment, we learned how to effectively present our products to end users. The best experience was internalizing the idea through dance, designing speeches, designing a website using the right colors, fonts.

The aspect of the workshop that I can relate to everyday life is the dance itself, when in the last interpretation I had to do 3 things opposite to what I did before. I remembered again the importance of volume in the body, breathing,... from the modern dance workshops. This made me quite happy, but also saddened that I had forgotten about it. I also got a new insight that the Sun and the "true node" (North Node) are indicators of life's mission. I like that you are a strong and uncompromising leader. The group under your leadership is safe and I also feel safe in it. I didn't miss anything.


Matevž Markovič, software development engineer

Your workshop has been one of the most beautiful experiences in recent years. Everything was perfect.The group that came together was great; we connected nicely, so different but at the same time so similar in finding answers.House in the middle of beautiful nature, situated among forests and with a beautiful view of the surrounding hills. At night you heard only the beating of a heart and the noise of a nearby stream.Sleeping in the attic, where we were close to countless stars, was a crazy experience.Warm and sunny weather so we could set the table on the lawn and become part of the orchard.Great cook and great food, which is a rarity nowadays (except at home).Walking up the river and swimming in the pool, barefoot, naked - priceless! I signed up for the workshop by feeling, I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. It’s really magical that you don’t know what’s going to happen, but you trust that you’re completely safe. Browsing through your feelings is not easy, you have to have the courage ... and someone to help you recognize the fears and other clutter that has accumulated over the years and face them. You, Sandra, have been wonderful! You helped us gently but firmly. Music and dance open the heart, along with archetypes it is the perfect combination! Our intention, expressed at the end, echoes in my ears, thanking us for our wonderful adventure - to meet next time in Bali. Bali was our red thread and I believe it will take us there when the time comes. I wait patiently.

Sandra, thank you for your interpretation. ✨ Just confirmation after confirmation for what I started listening within myself a lot during this period. This inner call. And it will be of great help to me - for exploring myself through astrology it will make many things easier for me! I only read it yesterday, but it just highlighted a lot that was hidden in the shadows.

Enriching 9 pages of description! Really thank you! Very in-depth and I will recommend it to many more. Thanks

Jerneja Tovšak



Wow! Sandra thank you very much!

I read it and I am almost speechless.

If I'll need any further guidance, especially regarding the heroine, I'll get back to you.

And really ... let our energy exchange support us on the path to abundance!

Sandra's astro-reading was very insightful, outlining both my resources, strengths and weaknesses and giving me tips on how to overcome the hardships and obstacles in my life path as well as pointing out who will support me in this respect. This has helped me try to channel and focus my efforts into the areas which I needed to work on and I feel I am currently closer to reaching my development plans and goals.

You have influenced my approach to movement. There is so much space to just be me in your class. Most other teachers expect particular attitudes and expressions, but I only feel free to be me with you. They way you take us through exploring movement has just the right balance between direction and freedom.

Dear Sandra, thank you for today's unforgettable dance experience! To be a butterfly, to be Joy, to have wings with which you fly freely, to have feelers with which you can feel everything and a sucker with which you can only give yourself the sweetest. That's how I can describe today's experience. It was wonderful! I am really looking forward to some similar dance experience.

Aikido instructor, Slovenia

After 20 years of focus in martial arts my body started to demand something different and the path brought me to the Archetype embodiment workshop where I was enabled for the first time to listen to myself and start journey inward. Thanks to Sandra's guidance and warmheartedness I had an amazing experience in beautiful Slovenian countryside. Looking forward to continue working with Archetypes and dance my head off. 

Thank you Sandra and all lovely participants!
