𝐑𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐑𝐡𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐦 - 𝐆𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧 𝐌𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 - 𝐒𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟐𝟔𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐭 𝟕 𝐏𝐌
This month’s dance is dedicated to the practice of staying grounded in the midst of life’s whirlwinds. While the world around us may feel like it’s moving fast, even like a tornado at times, we gather to root ourselves in the ground beneath our feet, in the beat of the music, and in the presence of one another.
Through movement, breath, and rhythm, we’ll explore what it means to return to center, to find stillness within motion, and to dance from a place of grounded presence.
Guided and facilitated by Hassti Hamidi, we invite you to come as you are and ride the rhythm together.

Conscious Movement Practice is a unique style of dance that is all about free expression and letting your body move to the beat of your own drum. Unlike traditional dance classes, there’s no choreography to follow or steps to learn. Instead, it’s all about letting go and allowing the music to guide you, enabling authentic movement exploration. Conscious Movement Practice has been demonstrated to help with stress and anxiety reduction, promoting alignment of mind, body, soul, and spirit. During a Conscious Movement Practice session, you’ll find yourself surrounded by a community of like-minded individuals who share a passion for movement and self-exploration. Everyone, regardless of their dance experience, is welcome to participate and enjoy the fun.
