Estrella Ástriðúr (aka Astrid), Switzerland, Iceland
Estrella Ástriðúr is a transformational guide and facilitator devoted to exploring what makes us feel truly alive.
At the heart of her work lies a simple knowing: the body already knows.
It knows how to soften. How to express. How to release. How to connect. How to return to its natural rhythm.
Through movement, breath, sound, embodied awareness and the intelligence of the nervous system, Ástriðúr creates immersive spaces where people are invited to move beyond the thinking mind and reconnect with the deeper wisdom of the body.
Her approach is intuitive, integrative and deeply experiential. Rather than seeking to fix or become something else, the invitation is to listen — to the subtle impulses beneath the surface, to the energy that wants to move, and to the life force that is already present within us.
Her work explores the meeting place between embodiment and transformation, structure and surrender, the individual and the collective. Through movement, ritual, trance, sound and presence, she invites participants into experiences where familiar patterns can soften, control can loosen, and something more instinctive and authentic can emerge.
Estrella Ástriðúr believes that aliveness is not something we need to achieve.
It is something we remember.
Something we allow.
Something that becomes available when we dare to inhabit ourselves more fully.
Her spaces are an invitation to listen deeper, feel more, move beyond the known — and trust the innate intelligence that has been within you all along.
The body already knows the way.

EKSTASIS
What happens when you let go of control?
When the mind loosens its grip.
When the eyes close.
When the outside world disappears.
And all that remains is sound.
A pulse.
Your breath.
Your body.
EKSTASIS comes from the ancient Greek ékstasis — to stand outside oneself. A state of moving beyond the ordinary self. Beyond the known. Beyond the boundaries of who we think we are.
This FELD Experience is a journey into that threshold.
Blindfolded, we enter.
Through sound, hypnotic rhythm, spoken word and intuitive movement, we allow ourselves to descend — layer by layer — beneath the thinking mind and into the deeper intelligence of the body.
There is nowhere to go.
Nothing to achieve.
Nothing to understand.
The invitation is simply to let go.
To surrender control.
To follow the pulse.
Until something begins to shift.
The mind loses its grip.
The boundaries soften.
The one who is moving begins to disappear.
Body becomes sound.
Sound becomes movement.
Movement becomes rhythm.
And everything becomes one.
Perhaps there comes a moment when you are no longer dancing.
You are being danced.
A moment when something older than thought takes over.
Something instinctive.
Something wild.
Something that remembers.
EKSTASIS is a deep dive.
An immersive experience for those who are ready to journey beyond the surface, surrender to the unknown and explore the altered landscapes that can emerge through rhythm, repetition and movement.
You are invited to come with a willingness to go deep.
To meet the unknown.
To lose yourself for a moment —
and discover what remains.
Close your eyes.
Surrender control.
Become the rhythm.
Enter the field.
TEMPLE OF PRIMAL FORCE
An Advanced Group Field Experience · A Ritual Journey Through the Polarities Within
There are forces within us that existed long before we had words for them.
The force that moves forward.
The force that receives.
The force that burns.
The force that softens.
The one that penetrates.
The one that opens.
Wildness and stillness.
Darkness and light.
Destruction and creation.
Surrender and power.
We carry them all.
And when we enter the field together, something else becomes possible.
TEMPLE OF PRIMAL FORCE is an advanced embodied group experience — a ritual journey into the ancient polarities that live within us and move between us.
Together, we enter the Temple.
A space outside of ordinary time.
A space where the individual becomes part of the field.
Where we leave behind what we think we should be and descend beneath identity, conditioning and the familiar — into something older, rawer, more instinctive.
Guided by sound, rhythm, movement, ritual and the collective pulse of the group, we journey through the primal forces within.
We meet power.
We meet surrender.
We meet the force that claims space, that roars, that burns, that says I am here.
And we meet the force that listens.
That opens.
That receives.
That dissolves.
We allow these forces to move through the body — not as masculine or feminine, not as opposites we must choose between, but as ancient currents of life.
And we meet them together.
Body to body.
Breath to breath.
Pulse to pulse.
As the journey deepens, the group becomes a living field.
Your movement affects the whole.
Your sound enters the field.
Your presence becomes part of the ritual.
The boundary between self and other begins to soften.
We explore attraction and resistance.
Expansion and contraction.
Chaos and stillness.
The impulse to lead.
The willingness to follow.
The courage to stand fully in our power.
The trust to surrender into something larger than ourselves.
Until the polarities begin to meet.
To collide.
To dance.
Until we discover that softness can carry immense force.
That surrender can hold power.
That darkness carries the seed of creation.
That destruction can become a threshold.
And somewhere in the tension between opposites, another space opens.
A space beyond either/or.
A space where both can exist.
Where the many become one field.
Where the rhythm moves through all of us.
Where the individual body becomes part of something larger.
This is the Temple.
A ritual space for those ready to go beyond the surface.
To meet their edges.
To be witnessed in their intensity.
To encounter themselves through the presence of others.
To surrender to the intelligence of the collective field.
And to remember the primal force that moves through us all.
This is an advanced, immersive group journey.
It asks for presence.
It asks for courage.
It asks for responsibility for your own boundaries — and reverence for the boundaries of others.
There is no performance.
No role to play.
Nothing to prove.
Only the invitation to enter fully.
To listen.
To meet.
To move.
To be moved.
Enter the Temple.
Meet the forces within you.
Feel the forces between us.
Surrender to the field.
And discover what becomes possible when we move as one.
