about
I have been meditating for 9 years, it has been the biggest safe haven in my journey. I have been on the healing path since 2017, utilizing reiki, mediumship, and intuitive sessions. I have been invited to do meditations at Farm Lands, Synchrofest, Evolutions Festival. I have studied under Danielle Federico from Modern Spiritualist since 2017, earning my reiki master title as well as Elora Method I & II certificate. I feel very passionate about bringing that to the world and to the festival community which has my heart.
workshop description
In this beginner friendly contact improv workshop we'll be listening deeply to our body's desires and finding the movement pathways that feel nourishing and pleasurable. Participants will be guided on a journey to be attentive and caring with themselves by being present with their physical experience. After going on an inner movement journey participants will learn how to meet a dance partner in the practice of contact improv while still maintaining individual autonomy. We'll be flowing and finding the balance of honoring individual needs while still being attuned to our awareness of the other. Participants will learn how to use their inner listening and non verbal communication to make empowered choices about honoring what feels good in the moment of an improvised dance.
