Interweaving brilliant and haunting harmony with lyrics born of honed emotional intelligence, MaMuse invokes a musical presence that inspires the opening of the heart. Playing a family of varied acoustic instruments including upright bass, guitar, mandolins, ukulele, and flutes, these two powerful women embody a love for all life. The synergy that is created through this musical connection is palpable and truly moving to witness. With 13 delicious years of co-creation and 7 albums under their belts, MaMuse keep their hearts tuned to the creation of music for the health of ALL BEINGS. DJ Journey Weaver (aka. Sarah Monette) takes dancers on a journey of self discovery through creative expression and connection. She mixes a variety of musical genres for ecstatic dance, world bass festivals, guided movement gatherings, and late night EDM. Through training in conscious movement and authentic relating, Journey brings her love of interpersonal connection and self discovery into the musical alchemy that invites dropping into presence and seeing where the rhythms take you. Founder of Ecstatic Dance Boston, Sweat Beats Northampton, and co-founder of I-Opener Dance and Flow ED... she continues to DJ and facilitate locally and internationally, thoroughly enjoying the ride. Chandra Cantor brings an ease and grace to the practice of Vinyasa Yoga, encouraging students of all levels to feel comfortable in their personal practice while gently playing with the edge of possibility and growth. www.steppingintobalance.com MELT: Live Music, Yoga, Cacao Ceremonies, Workshops, Ecstatic Dance, Sound Healing, Live Painting, & Elixirs, March MELT: Saturday, March 23rd w/ Voxmana & James Bird
