Tanja Kreideweis
Ibiza Sound Healer and Cacao Facilitator
For the past few years, Tanja has been on a personal healing journey, discovering a variety of energy healing methods, But her biggest transformation was created by sound. Music has always been part of her story and has helped her through emotional valleys, but also countless beautiful moments.
Sound works in a multitude of ways, and seems to know exactly where we are feeling unbalanced. It helps to put our body back into the right vibration so we are in harmony again. After discovering the magic of sound healing, Tanja felt called to bring this miraculous healing tool to the world.
Since then, Tanja has studied extensively to become a certified sound meditation trainer and has founded Omkara – Your Sound Within. Through sound and voice, she creates a space for personal development and spiritual growth through sound. The intention of Omkara is to remind you of your inner sound and to make it audible again. When we are able to listen to our inner sound again, we reconnect with ourselves, with our essence. If we manage to get back into balance as an individual, then we can also get in touch with nature and understand other living beings.
Tanja will create a safe space to re-establish this connection. Her intention is to help change your energy and to bring you to a different vibration. Omkara offers you the possibility to open your heart again, and accompanies you on your personal path, providing you with tools that you can integrate into your everyday life.

Claudia Hilarius
Ibiza Retreat Coordinator and Wellness Guide
Claudia discovered yoga during her travels around the globe during her time as a flight attendant.
It was also during this time that she felt the deep desire to live on an island by the seaside, so she picked up everything and moved to the beautiful island of Ibiza, planning to stay only for six months…. and ended up staying for five years.
Ibiza is a very spiritual island where Claudia felt more connected to nature, organic and fresh produce, and of course discovering her desire for a deepened yoga practice, where she found herself falling more and more in love with moments of observation and philosophy.
Claudia wanted to dive deeper into her yoga education, and attended a yoga training in India. (one of the same ones as Jarl!). After leaving India, she wanted to explore more about the functions and movements of the body. So after exploring Ashtanga yoga, she also learned how to teach Pilates.
Since then, Claudia has been living in Germany and leads Pilates in a studio in Berlin, assisting people with postural problems and pain prevention.

Viviane Marmelstein
Energetic Healer and Holistic Coach
Sometimes all we need is a different perspective. Viviane helps others to focus on the root of the situation, rather then the quick fix. She uses energetic healing work to feel into the problem, instead of trying to solve it from the mind, helping others to connect and empower those to follow the path of love.
At a very young age Viviane experienced energetic sensitivity that felt more of a burden than a strength at the time. It was challenging for her to express her true emotions and feelings. There was so much going on inside, but no way for it to come out. Working as a model was a great way for her to express herself, but along with that came body dysmorphia and eating disorders, eventually loosing the connection to herself. After becoming a mother, her biggest focus was to tune back in with her own intuition.
Since then, she has been rediscovering self love, and how to help others connect to their own emotions and connection to the self. She helps to create a safe and nourishing environment where others can tune back into their heart, feeling supported and inspired to flourish in their existence.
Viviane’s goals are to bring the power of love back into the way people choose to live their lives. Through her energetic healing sessions, you will learn to alchemize whatever is holding you down, into whatever you need to celebrate the beautiful life you have!
It is her destiny to serve.
