Wearing blindfolds allows dancers to drop the fear and self-judgment that often inhibits spontaneous movement and authentic connection to self and others. These workshops take participants on a journey of somatic self-discovery and non-verbal consent via solo and group exercises before culminating in an hour-long freeform blindfolded jam. www.blindfoldedcontact.com Yin Yoga: Bailey Maria Vargas Mission - To spread body awareness through mindful movement as well as guiding people to their deepest most truest self with the help of pranayama breathing. Tapping into the 7 energy centers (chakras) most commonly known.
