Thursday, December 21st
7:00-9:15p
We’ll begin by expressing our gratitudes with a Traditional “Despacho” Ceremony from the Andes.
We’ll feed our highest love and gratitude into each and every ingredient as we co-create a “gift” into the form of a beautiful mandala. According to the elders, this type of offering creates a state of “ayni” or reciprocity that brings us into right relationship with life.
…And then we’ll move with Qoya
Qoya is a movement practice specifically designed to help women feel good in their bodies. It’s for women of all ages, body types and levels of movement experience.
It is based on the belief that
Through movement we remember our essence is
wise, wild and free.
Wise from the wisdom of yoga.
Wild refers to the authentic creative expression in dance
Free is about expanding our capacity to enjoy ourselves through feminine movement
You can’t do Qoya wrong and you know you’re doing it right if it feels good… if you feel the resonance of truth in your body.
In this special Qoya class/ceremony I’ll play some of my favorite ceremonial dance music and invite you to dance with your relationship to the Solstice — the cosmic beginning of the creative cycle ahead.
