The Wiggle Room: Release the Cheeks

Event Description:

Are you ready to release? Those cheeks that is! The lovely and talented Saharla Vetsch is back with her energizing and empowering movement workshop – Release the Cheeks.

This beloved workshop is all about releasing the tension and stress we carry in our hips (and booty) by connecting our minds to the body through lower body focused movement. More than a twerking class, Saharla will guide us through a series of stretches, movements, and grooves before we shake it out on the floor. Trust, you will definitely get your twerk game up too!

In The Wiggle Room, we also intentionally practice having flexibility and grace in our mindset and self-talk around the things we’re each navigating in life. All so that we can leave feeling lighter, brighter, (a little sweaty) and standing in our power.

Remember to Wear + Bring:

• Comfy clothes and shoes to move with ease

• Refillable water bottle

• Something to release (non tangible)

Tickets:

$10-40 Sliding scale tickets available. No one turned away for lack of funds.We are grateful for your support of our work and the investment in yourself.
