30 Minute Online Ecstatic Dance: Sacred Somatics

Whether you're an INTROVERT, a novice, a facilitator, a professional dancer, or a non-mover --- music & movement are powerful healing tools. Sometimes you want to stay in the safety of your own containment and process....I understand you.

September - BALANCE (as the temperature shifts, we cultivate a sense of personal balance)

October - HARVEST (we celebrate the seeds we've sown and the bounty we have)

November - GRATITUDE (life, love, friendships, community, connection, the wins, the losses)

December - LIGHT (we explore ways to keep ourselves illuminated amidst the darkness)

1. We Dance without shoes (or: We Dance Barefoot) This allows us to connect more fully with the Ground (socks are OK) If you have a physical condition that you need dance shoes, then OK

2. We Dance without words (or: We Dance with Body Language) This makes it easier to be in a Meditative State No Verbal Instruction from the Facilitators No Talking from the Dancers

3. We Dance as We Are No Drugs/Alcohol, No Phones, No Camera/Video, No Scents, No Expectations, No Judgements, No Shoulds, No Oughts… Just Be Yourself; With Respect for Ourselves, the Space, and One Another.

Reclaim what needs to be restored and surrender to the MOVEMENTS of sacred sound within you.

All are welcome. Space is held to celebrate the unique Artistic and Spiritual style and the individuality of each person's specific needs.

"I studied with Nikki Baksh, and she taught me a *great deal* about the heritage and lineage of Yoga."

- Annie Hathaway, Private Student (Oscar-winning Hollywood actress)

"Nikki is a phenomenal teacher!

The Artistry of Yoga centers and grounds me for the week. Then, The Movement lets me see and release whatever I need to get rid of. Perfection! It's the first time that I get to Move however I want to, and she gives everyone the freedom to do that. She gets all these emotions going within me, and it's so liberating. She's really brought out the REAL ME. The fluidity she shows during class is just beautiful to watch and also for us to learn to be fluid and not be so strict in our movements and what we do."

- Doris V., regular Zoom participant

" Nikki’s Yoga, Warmup, and Movement classes are a true transformation trifecta that gives me exactly what I need each week to feel aligned, grounded, centered, strong, expansive, and empowered body, mind, and spirit. The dharma talks are GOLD, and I love the benefit of having the On Demand at my fingertips.” Nikki's Movement class is medicine for my soul! Nikki knows how to connect you to the wisdom of your inner self. She takes life and puts it right in front of you. Movement is life. Nikki is amazing!"

- Betsy, regular Zoom participant

"I can’t even begin to tell you how I was blown away I was. Nikki is so passionate, so honest, so raw and informative. She dives deeply and takes the time to truly explain what each pose or chakra is. She teaches us to love ourselves and our bodies and be patient...and how yoga isn’t about just coming to the mat but it’s about “living it day to day”. That’s true yoga. I was so inspired by her. She took time after class to spend another 1/2 hour just chatting with me more, diving deeply, and answering my questions. You can tell yoga is love to her; it isn’t just about being robotic and doing a class. If you can take a class with her, I promise you won’t regret it. I’m so excited and looking forward to my next class. You’re phenomenal Nikki."

- Alina T. - NYC

"Nikki's thoughtfully curated programming was presented to me from a yogic perspective...she helped me work through boundaries and "non-negotiables" in other aspects of my life. One of the other most important things she helped me to better understand was my sense of self-worth and how it related to my actions. It has taken me quite a while to break some of the patterns I had established that I thought were valuable, but realized were no longer serving me at this point in my life."

- Erica Marcano - MS ATC, CSCS

"Nikki Baksh is a masterful teacher of yoga. Her knowledge of body mechanics blended with her insight into the subtle realm, creates an experience that is both illuminating and empowering. Nikki’s class is like a journey into the deeper realms of the self, integrated with humor, compassion, and grace. Her embodied presence is a reminder that the divine is inherent in all beings and accessible through the human form."

- Sarah Platt-Finger - Co-founder ISHTA Yoga | Yoga Director @Chopra
