ABOUT MOMENTOM

WHO IS MOMENTOM?

MOMENTOM GEEKS OUT ON CREATING LITTLE POCKETS OF ALTERNATE REALITIES IN OUT-OF-THIS-WORLD LOCATIONS WHERE ARTISTS & YOGI’S CAN THRIVE.

Whether at the UN, in conventional school or in our 9-5, our founding members realized that many of us have stopped believing in the creative power of our mind and limit ourselves to the structures imposed by society. We were over it. So we set off to create our own realities based on our passions: self-transcendence, travel and impact.

Today, Momentom is a super unique community who embrace circus and yogic lifestyle. The founders built a project around the world for the extra-ordinary to be the norm, spaces catered to the super human of our times, who wish to create a new future based on our rules.

We are an all-vegetarian movement based on sustainability and arts.

WHAT DOES MOMENTOM DO?

Momentom experiences are a hybrid between a summit, a retreat and a festival where residents collaborate on training, innovation and art.

We design each of our spaces to invoke dream-like experiences specifically tailored to bring an entire community into a baseline state of inspiration.

THE MOMENTOM MISSION

Our mission is to provide transformational experiences that awaken the potential in the human spirit.

THE MOMENTOM VISION

A platform to bridge the collective consciousness into a new paradigm that recognizes arts as a catalyst for social change.

THE MOMENTOM STRUCTURE

We call ourselves a collective because we believe in the power of collectivity.

Momentom was developed as a platform for many unconventional projects to work under the same vision and uplift generations of creative masterminds Momentom opens opportunities for energetic and financial investment once a year for those wishing to establish themselves and co-create the movement’s future vision.

THE MOMENTOM PILLARS

We ground ourselves in art, community and entrepreneurship to achieve the highest states of flow and awaken the human spirit to its full potential.

We believe that everyone is an artist and has the power to sustain themselves from their passions. Through practices in introspection and self expression, we step into the most optimal states of existancce, and through community we are able to hold each other accountable & support each other in achieving our goals.

MOMENTOM VALUES

WE CREATE MOMENTUM
Momentom : the motion of movement (changing tides in the global paradigm) measured as a product of people stepping into their optimal selves through spirituality and authentic self-expression.

WE BELIEVE IN CONSCIOUSNESS AS A FOUNDATION
Momentom Collective believes in the power of awakening, individually and collectively. We meditate. We manifest. We say gratitude. We collapse individual awareness to shape collective consciousness.

WE FOSTER COMMUNITY
We believe vibe attracts tribe and that community is the new Buddha. Our community values cooperation, authenticity, respect and cuddle puddles. For this reason, we strive to produce spaces where we meet our best friends and best reflections, along with spaces to be alone and go into deep introspection.

WE EMBRACE A VEGETARIAN DIET
We understand the impact the meat industry makes on the world and our bodies. We think about things in global context and are driven to create a training platform where veganism and vegetarianism is part of the norm. Our residencies and retreats are meat-free and we embrace everyone, wherever they are on their path and transition to a vegetarian diet.

WE EMBODY THE HEYOKA CLOWN
We believe clowns play an important role in shaping society codes. At Momentom, we are unbound by societal constraints and allow ourselves to critique established norms. We expose society’s vices. We strive to function both as a reflection and a teacher, to mirror others, and force ourselves to examine our own doubts, fears, hatreds, and weaknesses for self-transcendence.

WE SEE TRAVEL AS TRANSFORMATION
We believe travel is not simply a vacation away from ‘normal life’ and responsibility. We see travel as an important tool for expansion. Travel is a way to live and experience different realities, ideas and cultures directly. We must never take the gift of travel for granted. We travel, because light travels.

WE PRACTICE RADICAL SELF-RELIANCE
Inspired by Burning Man, we embrace the Playa Culture – merging dreams and waking states to dissolve the illusion of duality and bring forth a new reality that anything is possible. Part of this culture is Radical Self Reliance: your personal growth and expansion will not be handed to you. More poetically put by the community of Black Rock City: ‘to encourage individuals to discover, exercise and rely on his or her inner resources to contribute to the experiences of others as well as their own.’

WE TAKE HOLISTIC SUSTAINABILITY SERIOUSLY
Its not just about creating little bubbles of alternate realities where dream states and waking states dissolve. We care a lot about holistic sustainability. We understand that Momentom impacts each of these realms so we strive to improve the environment, economy and social conditions of the spaces we occupy.

WE ENCOURAGE SELF-EXPRESSION
If yoga is the eradication of the self, circus is the expression of all your selves. Radical self-expression arises from the unique authenticity each individual can contribute to their being and their community. We celebrate this and encourage this.

WE PARTICIPATE
We achieve being through doing. Our community is committed to a participatory ethic. We believe that transformative change, whether in the individual or in the collective consciousness, can occur only through the medium of deeply personal participation. Everyone is invited to contribute, to teach and to play on our skill-sharing platform.

WE PRACTICE AUTHENTIC RELATING
We dive deep Into our relationships and develop ninja relating communication skills and conflict resolution skills.

WE ADVOCATE RADICAL INCLUSION
We honour our inherent diversity, belonging, and contribution to the greater whole and value the fullness of every human being—mind, body, heart, and spirit. Anyone who aligns with our values can apply to participate on our platforms. We require an application process to ensure common intentionality and to achieve the perfect mix of spiritual healers artists and business entrepreneurs.

WE ARE ALL TEACHERS AND STUDENTS
We believe that everyone has something to teach. A collective learns and benefits the most when there’s a balance of knowledge shared. At Momentom, you are invited to be both a student and a teacher.
