Chris & Filly are joined with Marjolein Akkerman for a dynamic, spirally, passionate conversation on using conscious dance and movement to help slow down, connect with your self and your body, and essentially take off “the mask” you’ve been hiding behind. 

We were lucky enough to have the lovely Marjolein come into our Ending Body Burnout Method as a guest presenter, to take our clients through an experiential body-mind dance session - it was the best! 

About Marjolein Akkerman

Marjolein is a certified teacher of Sacred Circle Dance and 5Rhythms®, with a Bachelor of Arts degree and over 30 years of experience in dance and the arts. Her lifelong fascination with the body and movement has been shaped not only by passion but also by physical challenges that at times limited her mobility. These experiences became powerful teachers, deepening her curiosity and sparking a long exploration of what movement really means—and what moves us from within.

Through this journey, Marjolein found her purpose: to teach freestyle conscious dance and to offer spaces where people can explore freedom, expression, and healing through mindful movement. Her approach is gentle, intuitive, and rooted in the belief that every body holds wisdom—and deserves the chance to move freely.
