About this Event
Women's Dance & Earth Medicine Journey
Join us for an afternoon of embodied movement and deep connection with nature. This gathering is an invitation to awaken your body’s wisdom through ecstatic dance and to listen to the medicine of the Earth in a guided nature-based journey. Together we will move, reflect, and restore in a supportive space. Come as you are, move freely, and reconnect with yourself and the natural world.
Spaces are limited to 15 women, so register now to reserve your spot.
Date & Time: Sunday, April 6th | 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Location: Private movement studio on the West Side of Santa Cruz & Moore Creek Preserve (RSVP for exact address)
Sliding Scale: $20-$50

🌿 2:30 PM – 3:00 PM | Closing, Cleanup & Departure
What to expect:
We will begin with an opening circle and intention setting, which will then lead into a 1-hr free-form dance journey. This wave of a journey will start off gentle, then slowly gain energy, designed to help you release and drop deeper into your body. The energy will then come back down, centering and grounding us all before we embark on our Earth medicine journey.
From the dance studio, we will mindfully walk to Moore Creek Preserve (10min walk from the studio), where we will embark on a 2-hr guided nature-connection journey. This journey will involve silent mindful walking, solo time on the land, ritual, song, and sharing. We will conclude with a closing circle before walking back to our cars together.
