unwind + grind: The official divine booty shaking sistarhood

"Unwind + Grind has always been a space where we can come as we are and let go of anything that doesn't serve us. Once again U&G has brought me back to life! I am so thankful to be inspired by the light of April Axé Charmaine."

Sol Vida Worldwide is committed to giving women a sanctuary, a place to completely be themselves, uninhibited and free like the wild woman they were born to be. 

We create safe spaces to give women an opportunity to reconnect with their whole selves, change their mood, boost their self-esteem, flexibility, freedom in movement, and connect to something higher than themselves through this transformative dance experience. 

Unwind + Grind: The Official Divine Booty Shaking Experience is a
cross-cultural, contemporary, exploration of organic movement, an experience activating bold audacity, self-love and sisterhood. 

This embodied release is set to get in your bones dance music that draws upon many dance forms including dances of the African and Latin Diasporas, conscious, ecstatic movement. This is the perfect place to learn some new SOL VIDA moves, while getting free with the flair of your personal style.

U + G is an intentional movement experience that connects the collective Divine Feminine into a remembrance of the personal sacred, unraveling the daily stresses, honoring ancient rhythms, reveling in the fun side of you, and creating the space for supreme stillness, healthy sensuality, and personal freedom in this booty shaking meditation. 

This workshop is great because it mixes the power of Form (Afro-Latin-Electro-Hip Hop) with Freedom (Ecstatic/Free Form Movement).

This 90-minute movement workshop begins with intention setting, a warm up in the round, communal across the floor section, free dance, and a closing moment. 

Wine, Tea, Sisterhood and Snacks to follow the experience.

​This workshop is recommended for people who identify as women and are over 18 years old.

 AN INSIDER’S PERSPECTIVE: UNWIND + GRIND:
Shared by the astoundingly brilliant, Dr. Caitlin O’Connor, Naturopathic Doctor and owner of All Families Natural Health in Denver, Colorado.

​"Unwind + Grind feels like an awesome sleepover.  All my friends are there (even if they are friends I just met).  There aren’t any strangers and that mean girl never gets invited.  I dance like a maniac cause the host of this party happens to be an amazing dancer with one of the best ipods around.  Lil Wayne perfectly follows Zap Mama and the song after that is my new favorite that I’ve never heard before.  The dances aren’t complicated but they are complex.  My body recognizes the meaning.  I feel like I have been here before.  Centuries, maybe millennia ago, when women gathered to dance – to celebrate, to mourn, to release, to relish in the power of these incredible bodies. When it’s over, I don’t want to leave. We linger, catching up, giggling, occasionally sharing chocolate or wine – looking to keep the endorphins flowing.  For the rest of the weekend, I find myself sneaking in a shimmy here, a grind there.  Standing in line at Whole Foods I start humming a random tune and might just bust a move or two.   My hips are alive again.  My subconscious has been subtly reminded that my body exists and it is meant to move.  For mind, for body, for soul – I  unwind and grind."
