About this Event

Invitation:

Join Khrissie for 90 minutes of sacred somatic movement. A body-led movement experience that connects you to all parts of you that are ready to be felt.

No performance. No need to “do it right.”

We drop the ego to be with the self. Just you, your breath and the truth that lives in your body.

Led by Khrissie (read about Khrissie below), each session is created in the moment, shaped by intuition, energy and what’s present in the collective.

These sessions are about self-devotion, expression and allowing all parts of you to exist, be seen and felt. Your body knows more than your mind thinks, and when you let it speak, things start to shift.


What is Somatic Movement?

Somatic movement is body-led, breath-infused, intuitive movements that act like keys, unlocking stored emotion, memory and truth held in the body. It’s how your body speaks through sensation, emotions and instinct.

Somatic movement is for the raw, the tender, the powerful parts of you that are ready to be felt.

Unravel beliefs and stored emotion - not to fix you, but to free you.


What to expect:

  • Grounding meditation to set your intentions
  • Guided movement with breath and repetitions
  • Affirmations expressed through dance
  • Meditation movements to soften
  • Stillness to integrate all that’s been felt


For anyone wanting to:

– Process what they are going through without talking about it

– Reconnect with their body

– Feel empowered in their expression

– Feel Lighter and more grounded in yourself

– Open to joy, softness and love


What to bring:

– Comfy clothes you can move in

(it’s like a healing workout so you may get sweaty)

– Blanket or warm layers for grounding after

– Water (electrolytes always encouraged)

– Snack for nourishment after (optional)

About your guide:

Khrissie is a somatic movement practitioner, intuitive coach and space holder devoted to body-led healing, emotional expression and feminine reclamation.

She’s been dancing since she was a kid, with songs playing in her head, moving through shops, across roads, even to the rhythm of the printer. She choreographed for family, did talent shows, tried ballet… but it never felt quite right when it turned into performance. The freedom lived in the moments no one was watching. That’s the feeling she’s always come back to - movement as medicine.

Her work is shaped by her own journey of disconnection, years of living in her mind, pushing through, and people-pleasing just to feel safe. She knows what it’s like to override her needs, shut down her voice, and what it takes to come back to the body, gently and truthfully.

Her sessions are raw, earthy, intuitive, and deeply human. She doesn’t believe in fixing, she believes in feeling. In allowing. In creating spaces where women can remember the power thatlives in their body when they feel safe enough to listen.
