Natasha Mason and Leah Rowe are excited to weave our magic together once again with this one-off event combining somatic dance and a healing sound journey.
Ooh, la la! The upcoming full moon just a couple of days after this event is set to pack a punch! Set within the emotional water sign of Cancer and taking place near the planet or anger and ire, Mars, it's fair to say we are starting the 2025 with a bang, so let's collectively bring that energy to find release on the dancefloor and then alchemise it with a sound journey to keep life flowing!
As beautiful coming together to share our unique vibrations, energy and movement as medicine with a weaving of curated electronic music, guided somatic facilitation, and a delicious sound journey to integrate.
$30 pp cash on the door - space is limited at this venue so please DM us to confirm your spot!
Held at Shine Yoga Studio in Oakura Saturday 11 Jan, dance begins at 7pm - please ensure enough time to arrive and settle in prior.
This event is not suitable for young children due to the sound ceremony towards the end.
What is Somatic Dance?
This Somatic Dance experience is held within a respectful setting, providing a place to express, explore and move for exploration. It is a space to gather to reclaim the joy, healing and freedom that dancing brings, in a non-judgmental space. No matter your level of expertise, this is an inclusive space that welcomes everyone to explore and discover at your own pace. Every aspect of the experience is offered as an invitation, honouring your individuality and autonomy.
There are no set moves, no right or wrong steps, simply a space to move and be free as you explore your physical, emotional and energetic body. This dance is not about adhering to rules. It's about embracing the freedom to release yourself to the music and let go of that nagging judging mind. Trust yourself, and the journey, then allow the dance to unfold naturally.
The invitation is open to all. Bring your curiosity, a water bottle and wear layers to shed, items of comfort for your sound journey, (there will be some props, blankets & bolsters available).
