Each of us has a unique way of expressing the body’s movement and creative energy. This expression of dance is the result of being present and absorbed in each moment. Soul Motion, a conscious dance practice, creates the space for the dancers to practice the art of paying attention as they navigate the inner landscape and the outer landscape. This is an awareness practice in motion. Cultivate your presence as you move through solo, duet and community dance. In this workshop, we’ll come together to begin again on the journey of self-discovering through dance. No dance experience required. I met Jovinna last year while she was teaching an improvisational Soul Movement Sanctuary Dance at Kripalu Yoga Center in Lenox, Massachusetts. Jovinna is a phenomenal dance facilitator! She gives such powerful, loving, gentle guidance that supports participants in finding their own deepest authentic dance. Being a facilitator myself, I noticed and loved the careful selection and timing of verbal cues she gave to help people find their own movement and flow! The music she played gave me a full body dance and eargasm! :-) ~ Trinity Advance Registration is recommended! Adv Reg- $30. Day of - $40.

Visit the website to see this magical place. www.GalianaRetreat.com The Dance of Liberation® is a unique form of movement therapy that heals and frees physical, mental, emotional and spiritual blockages. Utilizing dance, contemporary shamanism, hands on healing, drumming and global music, this powerful and beautiful soul work sheds inhibitions and heightens inner awareness in a safe and carefully monitored group setting. Dancers are blindfolded in the shamanic tradition and step beyond their conscious fears and limitations and allow their innermost creative sides to break free. Dancers tune in to sound and movement to take an inner journey exploring a trancelike state of self-discovery and self-realization. Testimonial for the Dance of Liberation- I highly recommend experiencing Parashatki’s Dance of Liberation. I first experienced it about 8 years ago and it supported me tremendously in opening up and healing through things that were in the way of me experiencing my highest good. It opened up a huge shift within me to take place that supported me in living my life’s purpose! ~Trinity About Trinity- Trinity is the creator of the Dancing Path™ a celebratory transformational events organization that offers playful, creative, community building events, workshops and trainings all over NYC.

Exploring the essence of spirit and dance from the age of four, Parashakti moved to the United States, where she spent two years studying yoga and living at the ashrams of Integral Yoga. While at the ashram she began her studies of Trance Dance™ with Shaman Wilbert Alix, this drew her to the wisdom circles of Native American ceremonies. Both of these profound in depth teachings and inspiration led her to develop the powerful, life-changing process known as Dance of Liberation™. The Dance of Liberation integrates shamanic journeying, hands-on healing, drumming, global music, sweat lodges and fasting to dissolve participants’ physical, mental, emotional and spiritual blockages to joyful life. Parashakti has worked with over 10,000 dancers from around the world and led workshops and retreats at some of the world’s leading holistic centers including: The Tree of Life (Arizona), Esalen Institute (California), Jivamukti Yoga School and the Omega Institute (New York), is Zorbas Retreat Center (Greece), Zorba Festival (Israel) and Hermecillo (Mexico).
