About Indigovka™
Indigovka is a space where Slavic tradition, marine science, and transformative art come together. Rooted in Dubrovnik, it offers experiences that blend embodied ritual, ecological awareness, and creative expression.
At its heart is the Slavic Dance of the Bereginyas—a feminine movement practice inspired by the elements and ancient archetypes. Through dance, voice, and symbol, it invites a deeper connection to self and nature.
Indigovka also expands into eco-art, storytelling, and ocean-inspired workshops, all designed to awaken awareness and honour the sea as a sacred force.
Who are Bereginyas?
Bereginyas are ancient goddesses and protectors from Slavic spiritual traditions, guardians of nature, especially connected to the water element. The Slavic Dance of Bereginyas is a sacred fusion of movement drawn from the Slavic Horoscope of Life. Each of the 27 energies comes to life through dance, symbols, and incantations, unlocking deeper understanding. Every soul carries a main Bereginya energy, shaping their path through the rhythms of existence.
