“paleo” means old , and “chori” means village. The name serves as a reminder of communal life in relation with nature. In essence, Paleochori is a space dedicated to the moving and sensing human being. A place for questioning corporealities as a practice of acceptance, bridging psychosocial differences, and meeting beyond our skins. A meeting point for embodied approaches and for those who are open and kind enough to encounter themselves through others.
Paleochori is running its third year and is seeking collaborators for the months June, September and October 2024!
More specifically we are looking for workshop organizers, retreat leaders, curators, individuals or groups, interested in facilitating artistic or educational projects that deal with one or more of the following subjects:
• the connection between body and mind
• learning from nature
• learning from each other
• holistic approaches in learning
• residencies for artistic research
• residencies for artistic creation
The uniqueness of our location and the intentionally small scale, attuned to the needs and possibilities of the natural environment, make the space ideal for activities rooted in:
• our relationship with nature
• coexistence and sharing within groups
• somatics and other practices of mindfulness
• alternative education modules
• artistic practices involving improvisation, exploration, research and reflection

We’re always looking for helping hands to join our team. Whether it’s cooking, upgrading and fixing our space, or gardening, there’s always something to do. Volunteering with us means becoming part of our family and contributing to a shared, welcoming environment.
We offer:
• Accommodation in bell tents or simple camping tents – in both cases with mattress, pillow and bed linens.
• 3 vegetarian meals per day – 2 full and 1 light in between
• Somatic movement and dance practices on our open-air platform.
… And our beloved company!
For this season, we are looking for help mostly with our meals, and you can join us at least for a month between late June – September.
