✨ Register today to save your spot - space is limited!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Join our beloved community as we weave conscious dance and sitting meditation together. Using Open Floor's Meditation Cycle, we gather to notice what's present and alive β€” then embody it in connection with Self, Other, and Spirit.
This month, we’ll explore the dance between gratitude and grit β€” the soft and the strong, the open heart and the steady root.
Through movement and stillness, we’ll honor the full spectrum of our human experience: the beauty that nourishes us and the challenges that refine us. Gratitude not in spite of the grit, but through it.
Whether you’re completely new to meditation and dance or a seasoned practitioner, there’s a place for you here. We’ll close the evening with delicious organic snacks, shared in community.
πŸ—“ Date & Time: Fri, Nov. 21 | 7:30–9:30 PM (doors close 7:50)
πŸ“ Location: Bridge Arts, 23 Maine Ave, Richmond
πŸ’Έ Cost: $19–35 sliding scale | work exchange available
πŸ”— Pre-registration (highly encouraged): https://venmo.com/u/Farshid-Farrahi
Bring: A cushion, a water bottle, and an open mind-heart.
Please avoid fragranced products or mind-altering substances.
Open Floor is a conscious dance practice that invites our Wholeness into Community. As such, it engages mind-body awareness, emotional intelligence, relational attunement, and connection to Spirit.
This is a space that honors the sacredness of diversity. We welcome adults and teens (16+) of all backgrounds, ethnicities, body types, abilities, gender expressions, sexual orientations, and spiritual paths. Let’s co-create a field of care and connection.
May all beings be joyful, well, and free.
Facilitated by:
Farshid Farrahi, MD β€” embodiment coach, psychedelic-assisted therapist, and Open Floor facilitator with 20+ years in mindfulness, meditative inquiry, and soulful care. He brings a deep love of movement, music, and mystical poetry to every space he holds, where your Inner Teacher meets the dynamic Now.
