Soul Movement Sanctuary Workshop

Dance is an intimate union of body, mind, heart, and soul. Each of us has a unique way of expressing the body’s beauty and creative energy. The expression of dance is the result of being present and absorbed in each moment. Soul Movement Sanctuary 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. This body of work is inspired by Vinn Marti’s Soul Motion and Kripalu Meditation-in-motion. There will be no choreography; this is an improvisational workshop all about you expressing your own authentic movement and flow. No dance experience needed. Come ready to move!

Trinity’s Testimonial for Soul Movement Sanctuary

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! :-) Jovinna is currently taking the Soul Motion training with Vinn Marti, so many of these principles will be in the workshop. Soul Motion is huge on the West Coast. Jovinna will be traveling all the way from Massachusetts to facilitate this workshop; so take advantage of this rare, wonderful opportunity! :-)

Exciting News & Upcoming Events

I am excited to share that this January I am going back to school to finish my degree to become a holistic expressive arts psychotherapist. I will be implementing dance, art, shamanism, reiki and nutrition into my therapy practice. Sort of what I am doing now only with more credentials thus opening up more opportunities! :-)

Due to focusing on school I have decided to discontinue the One Love Drum & Dance Circle and will rarely be facilitating dances myself. I thank all of you who came to all the magical events we had last year. It was always so heart warming and wonderful to see you all share your dance, drumming and hearts so openly.

In 2011 The Dancing Path™ will be expanding and taking on a new direction! The Dancing Path™ is committed to offering stellar events that get you in touch with and nurture what makes you dance inside and out! This being said The Dancing Path™ is intending to host more top notch facilitators in 2011 offering various trainings, events and workshops such as: Contact Improv, Yoga Trance Dance, Goddess Dance Rituals, Soul Motion, Biodanza, Tamalpa Expressive Art Therapy Workshops, Halprin’s Planetary Dance, Shamanism Workshops, Shiatsu Trainings, Reiki Trainings, Partner Yoga Workshops, Circus Yoga Workshops, Budokon Yoga Workshops, Didgeridoo Workshops, How to play the Djembe Drum, Beach Parties and more!

Personally in 2011 my friend Kyoko Jasper and I will be offering a Restorative Bliss Class which includes Partner Yoga, Circus Yoga, Thai Massage, Reiki and Meditation. I will also be offering Reiki I trainings. More info coming soon!

Thank you for reading :-) I look forward to playing and dancing with you all soon!

with deep love & gratitude,

Trinity
