FLUID Tribal Gathering at Heaven Surf House
A conscious mini-fest in the village of Seven Waves: connect with like-minded souls, dance, co-create, learn, share and celebrate.
A weekend gathering by the sea
FLUID is a weekend gathering near the seaside, amongst nature, full of conscious activities: yoga, workshops, dance, live music, DJs, children’s activities, local artisans and market stalls.
It is a call to meet like-minded people who want to spend a weekend immersed in nature — to share, learn, co-create, dance and celebrate.
Heaven Surf House and Ecstatic Dance Cyprus started it with FLUID Movement Gathering in 2020. The second edition, FLUID Tribal Gathering, followed in April 2022 with many more elements: local yoga teachers, workshop facilitators, DJs and musicians, artisans and market stalls.
