*Ecstatic dance offers a space for people to let go of inhibitions, connect with themselves and others, and experience the joy of movement in its purest form. It can be a deeply transformative and liberating practice for those who engage with it regularly.
*The Sacred Seven Directions SoundBath Journeys:
The Sound Healing Journeys are intuitively created using~432Hz Crystal Quartz & Tibetan Singing Bowls, woven with Medicine Songs, Drums, & other healing instruments, providing soothing vibrations allowing for a full body relaxation, restoration & cellular rejuvenation.
The vibrational journeys are designed to impact the physical, mental, emotional & energetic levels of the body restoring harmony within all the multidimensional layers of anatomy. Promoting overall good Health & Wellbeing for the Body, Mind & Spirit.
The deeply relaxing meditative experience takes you on an inner journey of self-discovery.
Resonating through every cell of your body, the vibrations of sound guide you to explore your inner world, gently release stuck energy patterns, limiting beliefs, & other blockages in a safe, supportive & welcoming environment.
*Free parking in the school lot across from the hall, or on the street.
* Bring a water bottle to stay hydrated, and wear comfy layered clothing for moving and sweating in.
* Please take this time away from your devices and phones to be fully present in your body.
* We dance in bare feet (indoor dance shoes also work, if need be)
* Once on the dance floor, you're in the container- please refrain from speaking with words on the dance floor. Make space to let your body talk.
