RISING TOGETHER: weekly BIODANZA begins Sept 17th! series + open classes 🍂
Join us for these upcoming offerings in the valley to ease from summer into fall together, and bring a friend, neighbor or other loved one – anyone who could use a little more movement and magic in their life. All are welcome, 18+, and classes will be bilingual whenever native Spanish speakers are present. No experience needed!
Weekly group will resume on Wednesday evening, September 17th at our lovely homebase in Hadley, with three open classes beginning a 12-week journey into the Biodanza process. After those first three sessions, we’ll close the container for the remaining nine weeks and continue on as a committed group, to build trust and a journey together that supports our personal and collective unfolding, a space of restorative play and collective care where you can come as you are and leave with more energy, feeling more connected and resourced each week. Each will build on the last, allowing us to go deeper into the process, and for the goodness we harvest in the circle to take root in daily life.
In these wild times, our systems are overloaded, many of us finding it hard to slow down and rest, to stay centered and connected to ourselves and each other. This group is an invitation to build into your life and each week a space for ease, integration, co-regulation and renewal. With guided movement and beautiful music, we’ll practice moving out of stress and into flow, unwind and balance the nervous system, cultivate our innate creativity, vitality and presence, and return to our most essential selves, sourcing new paths forward from our dances together.
These open sessions are a wonderful opportunity to explore the space, and get a sense of Biodanza as a process and as a powerful catalyst for positive change. If you've been curious or wanting to join, come dance with us for a couple or all of these first few weeks while the circle's open, and see whether you’d like to participate in the full cycle this season. Catch the EARLY BIRD rate for the series by FRIDAY SEPT. 12th or for any of the first three classes, by each Monday.
