COme As You Are! Yoga for musicians
CONTRASTS -
LIVE RETREAT in COPENHAGEN
July 12-14th 2024
Right in the middle of 2024, at a sunny July weekend you will get the chance to fully recharge and exhale after a probably intense first half of the year.
This retreat is perfect to deepen your yoga practice and to dive into a maybe completely new perspective of life!
Having fun and celebrating without harming yourself.
What you can expect:
Celebrate yourself
Celebrate style
Celebrate body and mind
Celebrate alifeness
As musicians we are so self critical and strict about our work that we sometimes forget how GREAT we are!
Be invited to experience full bliss, full connection and full “end of the season rechargement” in a stunning city!
I invite you to three days of exceptional body-mind experiences!
In my opinion one of the most wonderful cities in Europe and maybe even worldwide: Copenhagen awaits you with its Scandinavian style, its warm-hearted people, its delicious food and the sea just in front of the door!
Grab your bikini/ swim suits and travel to Copenhagen!
You will stay in deluxe and bright apartments close by the water and will have the yoga studio right in front of you!

About me - Nicco Krezdorn
I am. First and foremost. Secondly, I am awfully curious.
I am currently working as the head of department for plastic and reconstructive surgery at
Roskilde University Hospital. Before that I was working as an assistant professor
for plastic and reconstructive surgery at Hannover Medical School, Germany,
studying ex-vivo perfusion systems and plastic reconstructive allotransplantation.
I have published 50+ scientific articles in renowned peer-reviewed papers (Pubmed).
I was the head of burn trauma surgery and clinically focus on reconstruction after trauma and nerve injury.
I have written several book chapters on plastic and reconstructive surgeries and
Ihave given countless talks on national and international conferences.
In addition to my medical work, I write about effective strategies for a healthy personal and work life.
I am a running a small publishing house, working as translator and author of several books, mostly in German,
more coming in english.
Apart from that I am working as a Yoga and Meditation teacher.
I am a father of three fantastic kids.
Life is a fantastic mess. Along the way, some things work great, some don’t.
My main intention is to inspire at least one person for a positive change in their life.
If that works out, it was worth the effort.
Thanks a lot, Nicco
