This is a free-flowing dance and movement experience where you are encouraged to dance and enjoy the experience however you’d like with an intention of connecting deeper to yourself and exploring movement without words.
It’s an open space to play, celebrate life, practice embodiment modalities, enjoy music, process emotions, connect with others, and ultimately be nourished by the experience on a physical, emotional, energetic, and spiritual level.

Dance Etiquette/Tips:
*All are welcome – Family friendly events – Come as you are.
*Flow toys are welcome!
*Bring a water bottle and layers.
*Bring kindness and respect for yourself and others and your willingness to explore and to dive into the ecstasy of spirit available through movement.
*No outside shoes on the dance floor if possible (dirty floors aren’t fun to roll around on)
*Please no strong scents.
*We ask that you limit talking during the dance set. Set up, break time, and the foyer area are great places to have longer conversations to limit distractions for others.
*We are encouraging everyone to be mindful of each other’s safety and health and stay home if you are not feeling well, or have been exposed to someone sick. Follow your own judgment on whether to wear a mask or not.

We dance every Thursday…Hope to dance with you soon

We will begin with an all-levels yoga practice to connect with the body, and get some energy moving.

After yoga, we’ll have a little break to enjoy some tea and light refreshments. Then we’ll lay back and get cozy for our crystal singing bowl AND handpan sound bath with a guided meditation.

This is a full-body meditative experience in which the song of the crystal bowls and handpan interplay with your body’s energy centers, softening your edges and encouraging balance.

During part of the sound bath, April will offer a guided visualization / spoken meditation inspired by Yoga Nidra, focused on connecting with the messages of your heart.
