As we journey towards the turning of the year, we’ll take this time to let our hearts & our moving bodies recount the opportunities, challenges & gifts that 2024 has offered us, & we will call upon our sacred allies of courage & wild wonder in order to give form & movement to our individual & collective vision for 2025.
5 Rhythms dance, Somatic Movement & Meditation will be our practices & our moving bodies will guide the way as we dance, pray, commune & rest in the spirit of friendship & nourishment.
Held by the breathtaking nature that surrounds the property, we will embrace the silence that the season offers us, while reawakening our bodies to the exquisite art of resourceful movement.
We will journey into the forest & allow our senses to take in the sweet nectar of raw nature & those who wish to can bathe under the waterfall in the hidden valley.
