What to expect?

Once a month, we would meet for an evening of Awareness Soul Dancing. We’ll do it together, women only, in my studio in Johns Creek. During Spring and Summer we’ll meet in nature.

 

 

We will open every gathering with a special Cacao ceremony, in which I will make the drink and put my pure intention for the practice, we’ll sip it together as we put our own intentions for the night. This will be followed by a short introduction of the structure of the night.  

 

Then we’ll move into the main part of the night, in which I will take us into an ecstatic dance session, using world and electronic music in different rhythms and vibes.

 

At the end, we will all lay down and surrender into a relaxing sound bath and a final “Savasana” = yoga final relaxation.

 

What to wear?

 

Dress comfortably and in layers. We will dance bear foot. 

What to bring?

You are welcome to bring a bottle of water and a small towel. 

 

Why now?

I used to dance on a daily basis in the first 20 years of my life. Due to an injury, I left dancing and replaced it with other movement, such as Aerobics and then Yoga. Now, after 22 years of Yoga and breath, teaching, studying and experiencing, I feel the urge to bring back dancing into my life as a way to reconnect to myself, to my body, to my soul, to mother earth and to other women, like you!

 

About Cacao Ceremony

On our ceremonial journey we need to look to the Mayans first. The word “cacao” comes from the Mayan words “Ka’kau” meaning “heart blood” and “Chokola’j” meaning “to drink together” This blood connection comes from the belief that the Mayan gods bled onto the cacao pods, and cacao was considered one of the ingredients used to create humanity. It was also believed that the gods gifted cacao to the people directly. The scientific genus name for cacao is theobroma, which translates to “Food of the Gods,” and the Maya believed that cacao was a key ingredient in restoring balance and connection to the divine. 

 

“A Mayan legend tells us that whenever there is an imbalance between humans and nature, cacao comes from the rainforest to open people’s hearts and return the planet to a state of harmony. Some shamans, therefore, consider cacao the ‘food for the shift.’ It represents the new order of love and peace, which is being cultivated right now.”  

– Keith Wilson, the Cacao Shaman

Sound Bath

Sound Bath or sound healing is the use of specific instruments, music, tones, and other sonic vibrations to balance and heal the body, mind, and spirit. Our Sound bath involves gongs from Nepal and Thailand, Tibetan bowls, crystal bowls and bells, that will create different sound frequencies and allow a therapeutic atmosphere that promotes deep rest, nervous system rebalancing, and emotional release.
