OPENING TO EQUINOX - Copenhagen, Iluma presents world-renowned musician Holloway & Satu Tuomela. Autumn equinox marks the one true balance point of the year, the moment light and dark stand equal before the dark begins its slow rise.
In Taoist thought, this is a threshold moment: yang begins yielding to yin, the harvest is gathered, and the body is invited inward. Yet even as we turn inward, leaning into community and connection stays just as important.
This one-day gathering moves through that threshold with movement, sound, and voice. Expect sensing, feeling, resting, dancing, singing - joy and sweetness, held together.
Join for one session, or stay for the full arc with both.
SESSION ONE -
Equinox Spiral with Satu Tuomela & Holloway
13:00 - 15:30
This first sesion will be a guided somatic movement space tracing the body's own equinox: the pre-spinal patterns and cerebrospinal rhythms that hold our most fundamental sense of balance.
Satu leads through Body-Mind Centering and non-dual Tantric philosophy, working with the spine not as a fixed axis but as a living spiral.
Benny offers the soundscape in direct collaboration with her somatic language - sound and movement responding to each other in real time. A rare live pairing, opening the gathering's threshold into the equinox.
Soothing movement, intuitive exploration, a little yoga āsana, a little dance where everyone and anyone can join.
SESSION TWO -
Singing Circle with Holloway
16:30 - 18:00
This second session is open to all voices, regardless of experience - no warm-up, no "can you actually sing".
Holloway is known for holding a judgment-free space where singing becomes communal medicine, where the point was never to sound good, just to sound together. Voices layer, wander, find each other, drop out, come back in. It's less performance and more permission.
As the day winds down, this is where the season's stillness gets harvested into shared sound, a soft landing after movement (if you joined the first half but not a requirement!), before the group closes and everyone steps back out into the evening.
Loved by communities around the world, and one of the most requested parts of any gathering Holloway holds. If Kirtan moves you, this will too - same devotional pull but with a different shape.
Holloway is a soulful soundophile artist based in Byron Bay. His genuine warmth, grounded presence, and deeply evocative music have established him as one of Australia's most distinctive immersive musicians, creating experiences that invite listeners beyond performance and into profound connection.
Blending layered vocals, guitar, organic instrumentation, expansive ambient textures, and expansive vocalism, Holloway crafts immersive sonic soundscapes through live layering and intuitive composition.
Each offering unfolds as a living sound journey, part concert, part meditation, part collective remembering. Gently encouraging the nervous system to soften and the listener to reconnect with themselves. His music has often been described as sonic acupuncture, reaching beneath the surface to touch the quieter places within.
Satu is specialised in Somatics and Embodiment practices. She is an experienced yoga teacher (ERYT500) with more than 2500 training hours. She is mainly a teacher training facilitator (since 2009), Creator of Authentic Flow, Embodied Yin and Shake the Dust, Co-creator of Somatic Ecstatic Dance and Embodied Flow™ Yin program. She is also almost finished with her movement therapist diploma.
Satu charms with her intuitive, all seeing facilitation, her Shamanic roots and a big big love for classical non-dual Tantrik teachings. Her exquisite use of music, harmonium playing, singing, humor, loving presence, Somatic brilliance, immense space holding and giving abilities, and a clear understanding of human body and how everybody is unique, is well known around the world.
In Satu’s classes, authenticity is the foundation of connection, and vulnerability is celebrated as a profound strength. Her teaching goes beyond the physical, reaching into the soul’s quiet corners, illuminating them with the healing resonance of music and motion. Each session is a grounded yet expansive journey into self-discovery, guided by her unwavering compassion and uplifted by the transformative power of sound. With Satu, you are invited to move, feel, and express, embracing the fullness of your humanity along the way.
