Wildlife Wellness Walks
Every month a walk in the beautiful nature around the Sloterplas. Get moving, get out and about and discover how you can take good care of yourself. Afterwards we enjoy a delicious hot cup of soup together.

The walks go around the Sloterplas or through the Sloterbos. Each walk is on Sunday morning from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM and is approximately 5 kilometers long.

During the walks, attention is paid to mental health, a clean environment and the walkers get to know each other a bit.

Empowerment
Embodied Empowerment is a community of well-being professionals and practitioners of body-oriented therapy.
We provide wellness events, experiences, retreats, classes and events at a wonderful location at the Sloterplas.
Our mission is to help people discover, through mind-body experiences, how to take care of their own well-being and to make theses experiences accessible for people of all walks of life.
By getting people from different backgrounds moving together, we strengthen social cohesion and make neighborhoods stronger and more livable.
Our location
Our unique location is set within Sloterplas Park, situated alongside the water on a peaceful island off the main park area.
​
Part of our approach is to offer our unique location to well-being practitioners and teachers so together we can strengthen ourselves and the community around us. Meet the professionals on our member page or join the community yourself.
