Description

YAIMA MOONGATE CONCERT & CEREMONYWe are pleased to invite to you a sacred container - one of reverence, deep awareness, breathwork , ceremony, community, listening and heart-centered musings. In Honor of our ten year anniversary making music & co-creating, we are feeling inspired to offer an evening of some of our favorite frequencies. Over the years, we have gotten to share these songs and musings in different ways- refining and designing the most resonant experience for you- our fans, family & beloved friends! Moongate is not just another tour, or album, or video, or song, or story- it is a concept- a Threshold.. After gathering wisdom, intention, prayers and thoughtforms throughout the last ten years we are so excited to share these new frequencies and revisions of our familiar songs and new music with you! We will be offering two experiences- A Breathwork Ceremony and A Dance- however we will create space for participants to attend just the Concert & Dance portion of the evening. GENTLE BREATHWORKMEDITATIVE BREATHWORK JOURNEY Join us as we journey on an inward traverse of the elemental realms within our bodies, dancing with the natural breath as a bridge, and the music as our muse leading the way. Together we will rest into deep stillness and awareness through a lens of gentleness, receptivity and intuition. This space of collective deep listening will be held in the highly attuned frequencies of Yaima’s music, and will nurture our visions of a harmonious future. This style of breathwork focuses on deeply relaxing the mind and body, allowing the natural intelligence within the breath to have the space to express. The invitation is for the breath to be slow and subtle, so that the finer levels of Prana are accessed. There is no prior breathwork experience necessary. Please bring what you need for a cozy nest ~ mat/pad, blankets, pillows, eye mask, etc. AJA BIO: Aja Rose is passionate about an ever-evolving philosophy of 'Sacred Rest'. This deep rest happens on all levels of the being and supports the spirit by living in a cyclical way that is attuned with nature's rhythms. Aja uses her many years of Breathwork facilitation to offer nurturing spaces of rest and Earth wisdom that help people embody this way of living. Her gentle approach invites a loving awareness and reverence to the intelligence within each of us.

Featuring Multi-Instrumentalist & Producer Masaru Higasa and Vocalist Pepper Proud has often been described as timeless and unmistakable, offering a balanced synergy of both the masculine and feminine expression. Their melodious soundscapes showcase instruments from all over the world. Inspired by the Majesty of Nature their musings encompass the listener with driving and revitalizing organic rhythms, transcendent electronic production, warm soothing female vocals and heartened lyricism. Their intention is to create a bridge between Nature and Humankind, an expansive experience that encourages growth and graceful passage for the hearts and minds of their listeners. The name YAIMA emerges from two sources one from the Mapudungun language meaning "that which water runs through” and the other from the culturally preserved Yaeyama District of Okinawa Japan- Over the last 5 years YAIMAs music has been reaching the ears and hearts of listeners from all around the world." - Artist Bio ABOUT SONIC SHIVA: sonicshiva.com"With many arms playing many instruments, Sonic Shiva channels the music of the Cosmic Now — weaving a live, improvised journey that can range from lush, tantric ambient to full-on, psychedelic freakout, depending on the time, place, and energy of the audience and band. With combinations of traditional and electronic tech, voice and strings, drums and samples, Sonic Shiva presents a fusion of classic inspiration with modern sensibilities to play something entirely new and generated by and for the moment." - Artist Bio Event Details: @ Washington Hall5:00p doors for Breathwork Ceremony Combo Ticket required for breathwork portion of event, please select carefully5:40 Breathwork Ceremony beginsPlease arrive by 5:30 at the very latest.
