Answered briefly.
What is the practice weekend in Purmerend?
The FIVE MOVES practice weekend in Purmerend is the on-site part of the Family & Friends Guide training. On October 31 and November 1, 2026 you work with your cohort for two days at the Practice room in Purmerend: Saturday 10:00 to 17:30, Sunday 10:00 to 16:30. It is taught in Dutch, English and German, by Andy and Eva. You learn to hold touch and consent, how the sequences build on each other, and how to guide the full flow with a real person. The group is small, no more than 6 people. The online academy opens on the day you sign up; after the weekend you guide six sessions of your own up to your certificate. The weekend is part of the EUR 1,500 package, which covers the academy, three Zoom calls, six guided sessions and the certificate. Lunch, travel and accommodation are not included.
Do I need to know anything before I come?
No prior knowledge needed. The academy opens on the day you sign up, and in the workshop you practise until two cases sit cleanly. That is your admission, so you arrive prepared.
Which language does the weekend run in?
We teach in Dutch, English and German. You practise and ask questions in the language you feel at home in.
Do I need to stay overnight?
Most people travel in daily. If you prefer to stay, you will find hotels nearby. We send tips with your confirmation.
What do I wear?
Comfortable clothes you can move in. That is all it takes, everything else is here.
What if the date does not work out after all?
Write to training@fivemoves.org and we will look at the next weekends together.
