Kiku  (she/they) is a Gestalt- and Transpersonal therapist, facilitator and mover — devoted to the intersection of personal development and cultural change.

Their work is an ongoing exploration of different layers of relating.
Contact with ourselves — with our bodies, emotions, and personal histories.
Connection with others — within intimacy, community, and society.
And beyond that: our belonging to nature and the larger web of life.

Rooted in trauma-sensitive Gestalt therapy and transpersonal psychotherapy, Kiku weaves together (eco) somatics, dance, breathwork, ritual work, and elements of alternative community building and queerfeminist sexpossible culture. Her facilitation creates spaces where vulnerability meets playfulness, depth meets pleasure, and inner work intertwines with collective evolution.

As an organizer of Touch & Play, she is passionate about cultivating environments where relational exploration becomes a living practice — where the body becomes a field of play(ful) exploration, (un)learning and grounded change.

Bennet (he/him) is a Gestalt therapist, (hero’s journey®) facilitator and mover, working in the field of embodied and experience-based personal development and conscious culture building.

His work centers on relational responsibility and empowerment — the awareness that freedom, desire, and exploration require maturity in how we hold power. Grounded in trauma-sensitive practice, he brings clarity, presence, and structural awareness to the spaces he facilitates.

Bennet is among others engaged in exploring power dynamics within conscious and consensual sexuality as pathways of shadow work. For him, these spaces invite an honest encounter with attachment patterns, privilege, shame, longing, and control — not as concepts, but as lived experience in the body.

He understands community as an ongoing practice. Accountability, for him, means staying aware of impact, addressing power consciously, and committing to repair when harm occurs. His facilitation supports depth and intensity while staying rooted in responsibility and mutual care.

I dedicate myself to creating through human, geographical, and artistic connections.

Since 2015, I have lived in Northwest Córdoba, Argentina, in the small remaining patch of native forest, learning daily from the resilient beauty and diversity of the environment.

I have built a home and workspace using permaculture techniques, water harvesting and reuse, and energy resource optimization.
For over twenty years, I have offered conscious training classes for diverse body types, co-managing a space for listening, sensory-perceptual exploration, and recognition of the limits and possibilities of the physical territory/body.

Since 2023, I have coordinated the Dance Laboratory, a space for exploration and reflection at the intersection of dance, sound, and words. This experience has been part of numerous gatherings in places such as Misiones, Patagonia, Buenos Aires, Brazil, and the Dance Research Conference at the University of Córdoba. In 2025, I premiered *Living for the Useless*, an autofictional stage work that explores dance, intertwined with theater through various poetic approaches, questioning desire, the body, and their connections.

Within the academic sphere, I trained as a dancer and choreographer, graduating from the National University of Arts (UNA) and the National Dance Teacher Training College. I am currently pursuing postgraduate specialization in Comprehensive Sexuality Education (CSE).
I am a bandoneon player in the SMS Municipal Orchestra, a writer (First Prize at the Santiago de Chile International Book Fair 2020), and a singer (Cruz del Eje Higher Conservatory of Music).
