About this Event

Greetings family, "Do you have the discipline it takes to be a free spirit?" ~Gabrielle Roth. We would love for you to join us for a dance between earth and sky, to honour and activate the discipline of bliss. We will gather outside of the city, in a private venue, so we can attune more deeply to the cycles of nature and our own body rhythm. We will engage with ritual, dance the power of community and the the elemental forces of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether within and around us. This theme has been inspiring me as of late, and I wanted to take this time to explore it on the grassy dance floor, with my community. In the past I was always one to rebel against structure and discipline, however, I have begun to understand the importance of discipline and structure to create more freedom and flow in my life. I have been inquiring ever more deeply into the practice and forms that hold me, anchor me and also lead me towards purpose, fulfillment and YES- Bliss, as well. Dance and embodiment is most certainly one of these practices, that no matter how many times I forget- always lead me back to my free spirit! So let's meet THIS FRIDAY evening to explore, inquire, move, breathe, pray and of course, DANCE our way into and through to anchor more deeply the discipline of bliss into our lives. There is no way to do it wrong, simply bring yourself and your desire to connect In and Through your body. I shall meet you there ❤ ~Phoenix What: Dancing Freedom with Phoenix Onesong Marolda When: 7:00PM to 9:30PM.

Dancing Freedom is a somatic, ecstatic and shamanic dance practice that supports the re-emergence of embodied wholeness. By gathering in community we dance an elemental wave, tapping into the fundamental building blocks that we are made of: Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether. Together, we co-create a safe space for Y(our) true self to experience full bodied expression. In this movement practice, we dance in ceremony; we give ourselves permission to enter the mythic, to work with our intent and welcome our felt senses to weave a new reality for ourselves and all our relations. All bodies, abilities and backgrounds are welcome.The practice supports physical fitness, emotional and spiritual healing, personal and leadership development and the ability to create and sustain healthy relationships. About me: My name is Phoenix, and I firmly believe that each and every one of us has a unique role to play in our evolving culture and in the shifting of the current paradigm. I have committed my life to co-creating spaces and opportunities for people to unite with one another and nature to put their pieces of the puzzle together. I combine my passion for teaching, embodiment, ceremony, ritual and communing with nature, to play my part in weaving our collective visions into the web that we are each a part of. My purpose is to inspire and empower others to share their gifts. I am here to remind others to stop playing small, encouraging them to share their gifts and to remember that we are all here to work together towards the “more beautiful world our hearts know is possible.” I am a student of life, a teacher, a medicine woman and an embodied leader who unapologetically shares my vision for global synergy and collaboration.
