- **Event Description**: A community-based Expressive Arts &amp;  Conscious Movement session inviting free movement, creativity, and deep connection through music &amp; art.About this EventA community-based, Therapeutically-Driven, Expressive Arts &amp; Conscious Movement journey inviting free movement, creativity, and deep connection through music, writing prompts and an introduction to Internal Family Systems (IFS) Parts Work.You are invited to join Registered Clinical Counsellor &amp; Expressive Arts Therapist, Kai Bishop (they/them) and Open Format DJ, Hassti Hamidi (she/her), for a mindful gathering focused on attuning to a challenging part of yourself and beginning the process of unburdening and befriending that part, rather than pushing it away.So, what are some examples of challenging parts? These could include anything from an inner critic or saboteur, to your inner child or teen, to an inner ableist or perfectionist. The list is long as we’re all made up of a myriad of parts.What is Parts Work?In essence, we have our capital ‘S’ self - the unmoving, unwavering, unshakeable Self. From here, we are made up of many parts. When they’re in harmony, we can access the Self easily alongside our parts. However, certain parts can begin presenting themselves at any age (usually as a form of protection) and can be challenging. They can take the drivers’ seat and run the show or we may try to push them away. In Parts Work we aim to witness and befriend these parts so they can begin to de-burden and return to their natural state to take on healthier, more collaborative, roles within our internal systems.For this evening, Kai will blend psychoeducation with facilitation that offers prompts for writing and dance movement to Hassti’s curated music. It’s time to offer the Self and your challenging part a chance to meet and begin healing inner conflicts through expression.Meet Kai Bishop (They/ Them)Kia Bishop is a Registered Clinical Counsellor who brings warmth, curiosity, and trauma‑informed care to their work. They specialize in trauma, grief, identity and relational healing and currently practice at Tonume Integrative Wellness Clinic.Kai believes therapy is deeply relational—rooted in trust, transparency, and compassion. Their eclectic approach supports people in reconnecting with their inner wisdom, exploring life’s challenges, and building skills that empower authentic, meaningful change. They work from an inclusive, anti‑oppressive lens and welcome individuals from all backgrounds and identities.Originally from a small East Coast town, Kai’s own journey—including a near‑death experience—deepened their commitment to healing, self‑discovery, and supporting others. Outside the counselling room, you’ll often find them dancing, writing poetry, cold‑dipping, volunteering, or spending time with their dog and loved ones.Learn more about Kai Bishop and their integrative approaches:https://www.tonume.com/kai-bishop-r-c-chttps://bcacc.ca/counsellors/kai-bishop/Meet Hassti HamidiHassti Hamidi is a conscious Dancer, DJ, and space holder devoted to the transformative power of music and movement.

Rather than following choreography or artistic rules, participants are invited to move, create, and express freely, allowing both movement and creative processes to emerge organically.Through music, movement, and facilitated invitations, this practice supports authentic self-expression and embodied awareness. It offers a supportive space to slow down, release stress, and reconnect with the wisdom of the body, emotions, and imagination. No prior dance, Parts Work or art experience is needed — curiosity and openness are enough.
