ROBBIN VAN DER CRUSSEN

 

"Looking back, I seem to always have been exploring ways in which I can have a new experience of myself in the world."

From extreme sports such as skateboarding, kitesurfing, gymnastics, freerunning and thaiboxing I gradually transitioned into meditation, breathwork and plant medicines. Music was always there with me, as a kid I trumpeted away on the French horn in the local small town orchestra, then onto drumming in a hardcore punk band and studying music at high school.

 

 

For over a decade now, I have been making my own electronic music and I travel the whole world connecting with people through music, dance and playfulness. However, up until 2017, I was noticing an increasing sense of lack of fulfillment.

 

Outside of the music scene, my continuous self-explorative work led me to breathwork. My life shifted rather radically upon realizing the power to control our health and emotional states that we unlock just by breathing in certain ways. And it is instantly accessible – at any moment!

 

Deeply inspired, I put my body and mind through 6 months of wild experimenting and playing with the breath on my own before I found myself in Czech Republic studying Holotropic Breathwork. Additionally, I joined a course with legendary breathworker Dan Brulé in Oslo.

 

I quickly got to put my new understanding into practice as my sister was in the midst of a challenging time and wanted to work with the breath. These sessions eventually grew to include a couple of friends and I started creating my own supportive sound journeys focusing on tremolo harmonica, Paraguayan harp and chanting, strongly influenced by traditions of indigenous plant medicine ceremonies. I infuse the sessions with playfulness as this creates openness and safety as well as smoother integration of the experiences.

 

For 2,5 years now, I have been facilitating large groups as well as individual breathwork, movement, sound journey experiences around the world. It does not matter if I am at a corporate event in Singapore, a wedding in Ibiza or a festival in the Mexican jungle – the breath can crack open any heart and mind and enrich one’s life.

 

The deeply introspective, challenging and personally transformative nature of these experiences plays the important role of counterbalancing my DJ/Harmonica shows, which are mainly celebratory. This has allowed for a sense of fulfillment to return to my work.

 

Through my own personal work in combination with evolving with my audience a mission to be of service to the best of my ability has established itself. When we visit and embrace the depths and dark corners of ourselves, and only then, can we realize that the ultimate celebration is life itself!

TORUNN LIEN

 

"I feel like every day is a new opportunity for learning and sharing something that can be for the benefit of all sentient beings."

On my quest for knowledge about human health and wellbeing, I started my journey of self exploration through yoga and meditation fifteen years ago. Studying and deepening my practice with several teachers, most of them based in India, I slowly learned how to access the healing powers of my own body and mind. Five years later I got a strong urge to share what I had found with others, and decided to start teaching yoga. During my first years as a teacher I became aware of the immense amount of physical and mental suffering amongst the people who came to my classes, and I did not always feel I had all the tools needed to help out. Since then I have continuously studied different healing traditions to find new answers on how to facilitate other people’s self-explorative work.

 

 

One of the educations that has had most impact on me is my three years study of energy medicine with Dr. Audun Myskja, during which my curiosity just grew bigger, and I decided to finally start my studies of allopathic medicine at the university of Oslo to get an even more complete understanding of anatomy, physiology and pathology as seen from the view of modern science.

 

Currently I am studying vocal sound therapy at the Gilalai Institute with Githa Ben David, which has taken my understanding of the healing power of sound and music to another level.

 

I work as an energy medicine therapist, yoga and meditation teacher, sound healer and musician, and spaceholder for healing work and ceremonies. I feel like every day is a new opportunity for learning and sharing something that can be for the benefit of all sentient beings.

Words fall short to describe the OYNS immersion experience for me.

It was the best thing I did for myself.

Torunn and Robbin are so talented, and they put together such a well thought programme for the entire week, and hold a beautiful and magical space.

”

For one week, Robbin and Torunn create an environment where playfulness, childlikeness, and exploration of both inner and outer worlds are invited! Along with compassionate listening, fostering equanimity and gratefulness, one feels safe enough to get in contact with emotions that were forgotten and learn to integrate them with acceptance and reverence...
