Moving Sanctuary Workshops


In Person and Online


Experience a guided Movement Journey to reconnect with your Embodied Self

with guided Conscious Freestyle Dance and Dance/Movement Therapy.

Our journey together will include:

Opportunities to enjoy your own dance and facilitated opportunities to connect with other dancers,

Options for journaling, drawing or other arts to deepen your experience,

a Sharing Circle to listen and, if you would like, to share your experience with others.


There are no structured steps to our dance. Instead, gentle guidance is offered to 

facilitate connection with yourself, find more comfort and ease with movement,

discover and follow your own dance as it unfolds from within. 

No past experience is needed. A non-judgmental space is co-created. Play is encouraged.





Let go of stress and the busy mind

Discover more grounding, connection with your body and whole embodied self,

Returning to the Present, moment after moment.

Experience a welcoming space to dance into a more authentic and free you.

Enjoy your dance. Connect with a place of wholeness within you.

Playfully notice patterns that no longer serve you and naturally dance into new ways of being.

Cultivate your capacity to listen to the intelligence of your body and deeper being.

Be in community of other like-hearted movers.

Let go of your serious self, play and enjoy the dance.

Be nourished and rejuvenated, have fun.

Potentially leave with more energy, connection with your body, heart, and whole self,
 
insights, encouragement on your path, and a feeling of connection.


Conscious Dance includes elements of Movement Medicine and other conscious dance practices, 

Dance/Movement Therapy practices often include Authentic Movement.

Moving Sanctuary Drop-In Classes

Online


Are you feeling stressed, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself?

The guided movement journeys to the home of your Embodied Being 

aim to support the nervous system in finding more rest, and to help us feel more grounded and centered

with embodiment practices and conscious dance.


The movement journey includes gently guided embodiment practices to support you in reconnecting with your body and finding more grounding, awareness of breath, presence, and connection with your deeper self and with life. 

It is an opportunity to let go of the busy mind, stress and arrive into the embodied present where you can find stillness, rejuvenation and connection with the wisdom within. It is a space to come into greater alignment with your Self and with Life. 

We journey together in a community of other like hearted movers. 

 

Suited for both people who are new to conscious dance and to experienced movers alike

Please find a Self-Care Agreement here.
