A Journey to Ancient Greece
THE GREAT LABYRINTH TOUR
In this experience, we invite you to explore the Minoan Palace of Knossos from a mythological perspective and to reveal the Minoan Nature Dance. Visit with your expert guide an amazing area of 22,000 square meters, the Mythical Labyrinth of Crete. A prehistoric “city,” the place where the oldest European civilization started and flourished some 5,000 years ago.
During your tour, we invite you to delve into the ancient myths referring to the “Cretan Labyrinth” and find out what the stories truly talk about. Next, in a beautiful nature park near Knossos, we urge you to experience an hour-and-a-half workshop on the Minoan Nature Dance, led by a dance teacher and choreographer. The layout of this workshop is inspired by the Minoan art depictions of sacred Nature Dances. Let yourself truly connect with Nature, liberate your authentic movement, and explore your own Labyrinth Dance.
What was the true meaning of the Cretan Labyrinth? What was the “Dance Floor” of Ariadni? The last stop of the day will be a local meal in a beautiful village at the foot of Knossos’s sacred hill.

Leader – Dana Theresa
Hello Beautiful Soul, I am Dana Theresa. I embody a powerful connection to the Earth and a strong affinity to the stars. My empathic tendencies and sensitivity to the energy of others called me to become a nurse and ultimately a holistic healer. On my journey to becoming my passion, I longed for a mentor who could answer my burning questions and support me when I doubted myself and my gifts. This is what inspired me to be a guide and mentor for other empathic souls and healers, like you.
The experiences I create for others go beyond the surface level to where we can uncover the richness and beauty of who you truly are. The work I offer brings together the magic and healing of all the modalities that were an integral part of my healing path. I am an Akashic Records channel, Reiki Master, Registered Yoga Teacher, and Spiritual Mentor. I would love for you to join me on this soulful journey.

Testimonials
Anna – Vail, CO
“Before I started the Illumination Program with Dana, I was really struggling. My soul was hurting… I often felt lost and overwhelmed. After the 8-week program, I almost feel like a different person. I feel my outlook has changed, my mentality has shifted in a more positive manner. I feel more like myself. I feel that I know my purpose, at least for this present moment in time. The techniques that Dana taught me help me manage daily stressors and anxiety. I have a newfound confidence, and am able to better take care of myself. I feel that the healing work we have done for my soul and mind have set me up to put my body in the best possible position to deal with illness and treatment. I feel I am healing from the inside out.”

“All of my Akashic Records readings with Dana have been deeply supportive and helpful. I’ve left each one feeling so much lighter, clearer, and fully confident in my next steps. She creates a really safe and welcoming space for you to open up. And I’ve been blown away at all that she’s picked up on psychically! It’s like she clearly sees situations in their entirety and picks up on all these different aspects, even the energies of other people in my life. It’s hard to put into words, but it’s truly amazing. She is a beautiful human, a natural Akashic Record reader, and I honestly can’t recommend her enough!”
