INNER VOICE:

Is it becoming aware of the way that you speak to yourself? Being your own critic and criticizing? Or is it speaking to you with love and compassion and support?

So, this Sunday morning I invite you just to go within and start to notice - notice your inner voice – notice if its being loving and compassionate or just to be a meanie pants.

In this dance just be aware and noticing – that is all you have to do.
10am -Doors open and we welcome anyone that would like to help set up the space.
10:30am- Warmup begins.
11am- Opening circle leading into Ecstatic Dance.
12:30- Closing circle, announcements, and community post dance activities.
