.: Synergy Ecstatic Dance : Willow Wonka :.

Feeling the patience rise within, The more we slow down, and move from that easeful peaceful space, the more the pieces fall into place around us. Join us for this full moon eclipse and astrological Samhain. Dance your prayers, for yourself and all of our relations~ . This movement session will be a practice of deep listening through your senses, awakening dormant codes of somatic cognition and unfolding authentic expression. Breathing deeply and flowing freely~ Coming back Home within . This dance floor will be a safe space to express your process to the outer worlds without needing words. If you desire to converse, please move your chat to the chill zone to the right of the dj in the venue and keep voices to a whisper.. or take a breather outside. Keep voices down when on the street outside. . All expressions are indeed welcome; please feel empowered to laugh, cry, scream and shout. This is a sober space, to embody your emotions fully without reliance on use of substance. Clear mind, centered hearts. . We are propagating a consent-based culture: please tune in with clear yeses and no's when engaging with others on the dancefloor. This is a judgement free zone. Here is a space to embody what's moving within you. No cameras or footage allowed. One of our team may take photos of the dj to share for their own profiles, yet this isn't a space for recording others in their movement journeys. This is a space of presence and acceptance of all that is. . This will be a space to move to the beat of your heart, the rhythm of the depths of your being, and the spaces in-between sounds. Your movement is your authentic art, waiting to be poured out onto the canvas of space and time. =Schedule= 6.45 - Doors open, welcome to come early to settle into the space 7pm - Opening Circle 7.15pm - Unity Partner Yoga with Susan Horning 8.15pm - Music with Willow Wonka 10.15pm - Sound Healing with Stephanie Rose 10.45pm - Closing Integration Circle 11-11.30pm - Integration mingle flow 11.45pm - Time to flow onwards & vacate the space =Music= Willow Wonka, a playful earthy wood artisan comes to us from Cowichan Valley on Vancouver Island, bringing us an earthy temple soulful experience to tickle your tastebuds and wiggle your cells awake.

About this sound healing journey: The subtle bodies hold imbalances and traumas that can eventually manifest in our physical bodies, as discomfort, pain and eventually dis-ease. It is important to release these stuck patterns and belief systems to return our bodies to a homeostatic state. (Balanced & healthy) Sound Healing can help you return your body to it's natural peaceful self. The sound waves move through you releasing the low vibration occupied in your cells to enable a relaxation that initiates release. Stephanie channeled light language transmissions as a child until she suppressed them at the young age of 8…. Turning away from her truth she battled with addictions, depression, experienced traumas which then led her to a rock bottom in 2016. Through yoga training, shamanic medicine work and devotion to remembering her truth, the medicine woman within awoke from her sleepy slumber and remembers what she has come here to do! Stephanie not only offers sound journeys and light language transmissions within the tricities. But, is also the owner of Rose code rituals as a ritualistic hairstylist offering transmissions, rose code initiations and womb awakening work while she embodies the Divine Mother in all her work she does. www.rosecoderituals.com IG: @rose_code_rituals =Spring Water= We will be providing fresh spring water from Lynn Valley.
