Women’s Workshop
Moa Oasis 2023
A unique Women’s Workshop taking place in “Moa Oasis”, aiming to teach women how to experience their femininity through yoga and tribal dance – and explore their consciousness through discourse and voice therapy in a unique and exciting Berber singing workshop. A rare collaboration between two prominent instructors from separate schools of thought, teaching the techniques, methods, positions, steps and beats relevant to their field. The workshop will focus on supplying participants with the knowledge and tools necessary to reconnect with and anchor their feminine organisms – such as the womb and the pelvic floor – while learning how to free their movement and consciousness within the context of the space around them. Awakening and celebrating femininity harmoniously and wisely with love to ourselves and our surroundings; this is a chance to be a part of a universal women’s tribe and reconnect with our feminine power. The workshop will consist of fifty women.
Participation does not require prior yoga or dance experience, only a curiosity and desire to study the body in the context of our ever-changing lives.
CATERING: meals will be supplied by chef Kheli Magar, prepared by a female only kitchen and volunteer staff. The menu will consist of premium vegetarian and vegan dishes. Meals will be served in accordance with the workshop’s schedule.

‘Moa Oasis’ In the desert
Moa Oasis was founded in an attempt to create an institute for a culture of peace; peace between man and his surroundings, man and his friends, families, peoples, cultures and his inner self. Moa is located in the Arava desert, between the Tzofar and Tzukim, right along the Israel national trail and the Incense and Spice route. Moa stretches over 60 dunams and includes an orchard, a lake and an extraordinary view of the desert’s majesty. These days Moa is owned by the Method & Wisdom organization, which follows Buddhist teachings and even has multiple monks and students permanently residing in Moa. The site is strictly vegetarian/vegan, allowing no alcohol or motorized vehicles on the premises, boasting 30 rooms/tents and a 300 square meter ceremonial hall. The drive from TLV to Moa is 2.5-3 hours long, and includes the famous Sodom-Arava downhill roads. A list of participating instructors will be published a month before the workshop.
