**Music Therapy & Systemic Psychotherapy** My approach integrates music therapy and systemic psychotherapy to support emotional expression, connection, and transformation. Through sound, improvisation, and dialogue, we explore inner experiences, family dynamics, and relational patterns in a safe and creative space. The sessions invite awareness, playfulness, and presence — allowing music to become both mirror and bridge between what is felt and what can be spoken. Whether through active musicking, deep listening, or verbal reflection, the process unfolds at your own pace, weaving together body, voice, and relationships as pathways to healing and growth.

**A place to meet sound, without maps** Facilitated by **Vesti Gium (they/them)** Everyone enters as they are. No score. No threshold of skill. We follow the room, moment by moment— listening, nudging, letting the music find itself. A breath, a shoelace, a laugh, a footstep— each carries weight. Silence is welcomed; noise is celebrated. There are no wrong directions here. We practise a listening that reaches outward and inward: to ourselves, to one another, to the space we shape together. That is where the music begins. * 🌀 Bring a voice, an object, an instrument, a movement—or nothing at all. * ✨ **Priority given to FLINTA folks and people with migration background.** * 🎧 No experience needed. Curiosity is enough. * 📍 Berlin – \[theodorstraße 5,12099] * 🗓 Every Saturday 12:00 * 📬 DM or email **[vestigium.impro@gmail.com](mailto:vestigium.impro@gmail.com)** to join Come make sound—come be heard.

This concept is borne out of a recognition of how the digital age has altered our general way of experiencing music where music listening is connected to algorithms, skipping and a fragmented experience. **We will begin with a full 5Rhythms Wave** to warm us up and open us up to ourselves, to the space and to each other. In its natural meditative format, **you’ll be guided by an eclectic mix of music and inspirational prompts**, inviting you to tune into your body, connect with yourself and to follow intuitive movement moment by moment. **There are no “right” or “wrong” ways to move here** – just an open invitation to discover and express yourself. **Then, we will dance to one full album.** We will allow for space and time and curiosity to be with one artistic oeuvre – the story being told through that album, letting ourselves move in whichever ways. * How is it to surrender to the structure of an album? * How might our movements shift or deepen as we immerse into the chronology of tracks, traveling the artistic logic and story? * What arises as we travel with an album composition, or “stick with” this concept, perhaps as a metaphor for life experience? **Most importantly and in all of Samar’s dance spaces,** there are 3 essential ingredients to each event: * **Freedom to be:** You’re invited to let go of the thinking mind, explore physical and emotional landscapes without any pressure of performance or “getting it right” * **Invitations, not instructions:** You’ll receive impulses and ideas to explore different aspects of movement and self-expression. Most importantly, you’ll be encouraged to follow what feels true for you. * **Presence:** Dance becomes a meditation in motion, inviting presence directly through the body in each movement. As you feel the music and let the dance move you, your thoughts will be allowed to quiet down. ### **Flow** Doors open at 19.15 and close promptly at 19.45. Please note entry after 19.45 isn’t possible. * **Welcome + 5Rhythms Warm-up:** We will begin the evening with a full 5Rhythms wave – 5 fundamental life energies (rhythms) through the dance. The music is played like a “wave” where it goes up and comes back down again. * **Album Dance:** After our warm-up and a gentle transition for water etc, we will move to one full album. * **All movement welcome:** Let go of any preconceived notions you might have about dance. Unlike anything you’ve experienced before, there is no choreography or special moves in this space. The music is played in a form of a wave where the rhythms will rise to a crescendo and then gently fall – and you’ll get to discover how it feels to move to those beats, moment by moment. During the dance, you’ll be guided with some words of inspiration and invitations (never instructions) to enhance your experience. * **Take it Further – our special gathering after class:** Once the official dance is over, we open the space for all who want to stay and connect. There will be snacks, opportunities for exchange and spaces for quiet reflections, too. * **No phones:** To allow for greatest spontaneity, creativity and freedom of expression, no phones on the dance floor. ### What to bring * A water bottle, there is a bathroom to fill up your water bottles. * Indoor shoes optional – most people dane barefoot. * Clothing that feels good – easy to move and sweat in. And maybe a towel (for your sweat :-))

**Daniel Neihoff** is an *emerging singer/songwriter from Paducah, KY*. He has been described as “one of the best storytelling songwriters in Nashville.” Daniel grew up in a family of songwriters, with both his father and grandmother crafting melodies and lyrics. He wrote his first song at 8 years old, surrounded by a family fit for country songs – the old kind about struggle and lonesomeness, mistakes among enduring love. The melodies and legends were all around him in his family, and it all seeped in. His accolades are impressive: he won the Kerrville New Folk Competition in 2019, was a 3-time finalist of Songwriter Serenade, placed 3rd in the Woody Guthrie songwriter contest, and won the Rocky Mountain Songwriters Contest in 2023. Neihoff has also been featured on PBS and received praise from Lori Walsh, host of In The Moment on SDPB, who said, “Daniel Neihoff, you are just what we need.” **Eryn Michel**’s songwriting walks the tightrope between real-life mess and wild imaginings—like her life, you’ll never be quite sure whether she’s singing truth, fiction, or a generous splash of both, drawn from a résumé that almost sounds made up: convoy gunner in Iraq, staffer in the Obama White House, phlebotomist, janitor, wedding planner, voice actor, and private security for a king’s granddaughter. Her songs have earned her the 2024 Bernard/Ebb Songwriting Grand Prize and a two American Songwriter lyric contest wins. **Reserve your seat by paying Scott Moore at [Moore Music in the House](https://www.mooremusic.org/). Suggested in-person contribution is $30.00. All proceeds go to the artists.**
