- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 01:00 pm – Sun, 03 May, 2026 at 04:00 pm (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: Mid-spring is a potent time to explore what is taking root in you, and what is beginning to rise. What needs more grounding, and what needs more encouragement to come into full expression? Join Shel and Julie in this half-day movement journey through the lush forests of Roberts Creek, BC. The afternoon will be spent in nature, connecting with the elements, and participating in gentle forest yoga led by Shel, to help us connect with our roots and the earth. Julie will then lead us in a 5Rhythms® forest dance, using Silent Disco headphones, to help our energy grow and rise, expanding upward and out, connecting heaven and earth. This day will be simultaneously grounding and uplifting, nourishing your body, heart, and soul. 
No experience in either yoga or dance is needed to participate. Come with your curiosity and an ability to walk gently through the forest trails.
