——————————————————-
Makvärket is a cultural and environmental collective in progress: a growing, self-organised, voluntary community of people working practically and theoretically for the increasingly necessary cultural, social, environmental and economic transformation of society.
Since 2008, the Makvärket association has been engaged in developing and renovating the former Knabstrup Teglværk, an old ceramics factory in Knabstrup, 70 km west of Copenhagen, into a centre for culture and ecology.
Nature Tales is an organization and music channel utilizing modern technology, community culture and spiritual philosophies to tailor transformative experiences combining cultural events with body awareness, wellness and contact with nature.
By creating spaces where activities like relaxation, yoga, meditation and dance, are accompanied by live music and DJ’s, we make self-discovery and transformation into a playful journey, that comfortably inspires to an increased presence and understanding of what mental and physical wellness is.

Cacao Copenhagen
The sacred cacao is a natural aphrodisiac used in the mayan and aztec cultures as a mediate between humans and our nature, by releasing our tryptamines and endorphins,
boosting our emotional reserve, helping us to be in touch with our emotions and state of being.
As a group of workshop facilitators, yoga teachers, herbalists and artists, our work revolves around utilizing and exploring this ancient tool and method, integrating it into modern means that answers our basic social needs.
The necessity to meet together, to touch and be touched, the connection and an authentic relating with other individuals, in a safe space with clear guidelines and communication.
Leaning on the wheel of consent, stating our boundaries we can explore our feelings and each other’s beings.
