About this Event

Nestled within the green-hearted mountains of Leicester NC, women are circling together in dance ritual. As the veils thin with Samhain, we will connect with our beloved Ancestors.

Decked-out temple adornments by the gifted Medicine Woman, Maya Carmen. Guided Ritual & Celestial Sound Healing Bath with Rachel Kelley. This dance is going to be fire!!! Within the portal of Sahmain, you are invited to go all out and dress UP! What is the true face you wish to reveal to your ancestors? Perhaps an archetype you would like to lean into.

This event is intentionally for women, to offer a space of deep embodied connection and empowerment for their truest expression in the world. All levels of dance experience are warmly welcome. **Give yourself ONE HOUR TO DRIVE TO THE TEMPLE from Asheville to the outskirts of Leicester. Look up the directions before you drive, as gps service can be spotty out in the mountains. Please message Rachel directly with any questions or needs. When women come together to honor all that is sacred, we reflect, magnetize and remember the potential of who we truly are! May we dance as love, to inspire beauty in our lives and each other's.
