Core Strokes™: Fascia, Feeling, and Relating Transformative 3-Day Workshop
with Dirk Marivoet (Belgium)

About Core Strokes™

Core Strokes™ invites you on a vibrant and fulfilling journey to awaken the full vitality and joy of your life force. During this 3-day introductory workshop, you’ll engage in a rich blend of experiential practices and a solid theoretical framework—designed to ignite personal transformation and deepen self-awareness.

The Core Strokes™ process emphasizes three transformative stages:

1. Let Be – Cultivate acceptance of your current emotional and physical state without
   judgment.
2. Let Go –  Release old emotional patterns and body tensions that no longer serve you.
3.  Let In –  Invite new energy, insights, and meaning into your life, allowing you to
   reconnect with your deeper life force.

Participants’ Experience

Those who have gone through this process report feeling:

• More alive, powerful, connected, and joyful
• Greater meaning and satisfaction in personal and professional life
• Increased courage to express their authentic self
