These experiential sessions are designed to help access and release our own dormant or stuck energy.

Using creative methods, including breath, movement and sound, we tap into what is primal and hidden, unblocking what we have stored in our beings.

Through guided visualization and deep breathing we move into our bodies and allow rhythm from music to move us. Permitting sound to come from deep within, we release what we have verbally suppressed.

The result is that we feel the aliveness and joy that is our true potential and the freedom of free flowing energy.

This is a 2 hr experience using BREATH to come into our bodies with a guided visualization, MOVEMENT to gently begin our embodied experience and SOUND to release what we have held back and what is primal and hidden. Emotions are usually unconsciously repressed and through BREATH, MOVEMENT and SOUND we release from our bodies suppressed energies that are no longer needed. We can also unleash and tap into our source of power and creativity. This experience is for those who are interested in unburdening themselves from what they carry, and wish to practice self care. Holding excess energy and emotion is no longer necessary and we become lighter.
