If you don't resonate with:

• Consent-forward teachings
• Heart-centered conversations and collective accountability
• Venturing beyond your comfort zone to express yourself through movement, voice, or words
• Embracing body positivity, acceptance, self-love, and positive self-talk or willing to attempt
• Learning alongside individuals of all levels, identities, styles, backgrounds, generations, and body types who share a deep passion

Or… if you are coming here for trauma therapy, then this is prolly NOT the right experience for you.

We will dance, connect, and grow. 🌱

The modalities at this immersion include exploring a blend of movement labs, healing arts circles, choreo labs, and nature connection in an intergenerational, radically inclusive, and non-competitive environment.
