A Sanctuary for The Human Soul

What wants to happen next?

In Omprov you will be introduced to simple games that awaken presence, aliveness and a sense of inter-connectedness with the group. You will be introduced to a movement technique, and a creative expression technique. In some sessions we will paint and explore the inner world through art, in others we will read from a text: poetry, play reading or other material and will explore its symbolic meaning in your own life and the collective world.

  • Omprov is a gateway into presence through contacting the body’s wisdom.

    The invitation is to “feel what you feel” and “know what you know” so that you can integrate and move forward.

    Drawing from a variety of movement and breathing techniques such as yoga therapy, Self-Awakening Yoga and Laban technique we contact what is ready to be worked with.

  • We work with the “Here and Now” principle, making the “Then and There” present in the moment.

    This means that whatever arises in the moment is the work we need to engage in.

    Everything is seen as an opportunity for healing, honoring and learning from each other’s process. Each session is a process towards integration.

  • Have you considered which options you have available?

    Neuroscience confirms our greatest opportunities to integrate new habits and learn new ways of being happen during play.

    We use drama-inspired techniques and playful group dynamics that spark spontaneity and a sense of community.

Meet Prema

Founded by costarican native Andrea Marenco-Snyder (Prema), Omprov Lab is an exploration of what it means to be fully alive. It is a space where movement meets stillness, where voice and silence weave together, where breath and awareness unfold into something deeper than words. Rooted in the wisdom of mystical traditions, somatics, and the expressive arts, Omprov is a practice of presence—an invitation to return to the body, to curiosity, to the raw and radiant truth of the moment.

Prema’s path has been one of Self-inquiry—through movement, through breath, through the vast landscapes of philosophy and healing. She is a facilitator of the healing arts, specializing in embodied learning, and the co-director of the Therapeutic Yoga Institute. Her work bridges ancient wisdom with the evolving field of somatics, offering a “bottom-up” approach to healing—one that honors sensation, choice, and intuition.

At the heart of her teaching is an invitation into presence—not as a concept, but as a felt experience. To move, to breathe, to rest with awareness is to remember our capacity to choose, to soften, to meet each moment from a place of belonging. Through this process, we cultivate our agency—our ability to sense, feel, and respond to life from openhearted clarity rather than being caught in patterns of reactivity.

Omprov Lab is not about performance; it is about presence. It is a container for the whole of human experience—a place to listen deeply, to play, to meet ourselves and one another with openness and authenticity. Whether through movement, breath, or stillness, this work is an invitation: Come as you are. Breathe. Feel. Begin again.

Omprov facilitates an optimal environment for learning that effectively challenges you to explore new ways of being, relating and moving through life.
