Description

Let go, dance, play, discover, express! A group where you have permission to let the real you come out of the closet and shine! Ecstatic Dance is a freeform movement journey, held in a safe and sacred space. It’s a place where we can be our unique selves, and also in connection to one another. Not only does ecstatic dance free our bodies, it is also a powerful way to free our minds from negative self thoughts and beliefs. When you engage in ecstatic dance your body releases chemicals such as dopamine and endorphins in your brain that make you feel happy. Not only is your brain dumping out feel-good chemicals, but ecstatic dance also helps your brain get rid of chemicals that make you feel stressed and anxious. After this amazing release we have better access to our creative selves and can more freely engage in expression through voice and spoken word. Come to a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where Lucia DiVieste Severtson, dance/movement therapist and empowerment coach will lead you through a journey where you will make powerful connections to yourself and other women. Each workshop participants will go on an enlightening movement journey, followed by creative writing and spoken word. The next level of self expression: Discovering and using your powerful VOICE! During these workshops you will have the opportunity to: 1. Practice bravery and taking risks 2. Rediscover play 3. Discover and allow the exiled parts of you to emerge and be seen 4. Learn to support and empower other women 5. Shed negative self beliefs 6. Reclaim the Artist/ Creative Being within you **Due to Covid restrictions participation is limited to 10 participants. Face masks must be worn throughout the workshop and immediately upon entry to the building.
