I have canceled all my upcoming Sacred Dance Classes
I will reschedule them once we find out how COVID plays out in our community and when its safe to meet in groups again.
Building Your Medicine Body
through Free Form
Dance & Movement Class
During this 6 week class you will re-member and claim the stories from your life including:
your Innate Wisdom, your Learned Wisdom and your Wound Wisdom.
You are invited to dive deep into your Self and explore the tapestry of your life, by tapping into our stories we can have a reverence for them. We are who we are, not despite our stories, but because of them.
Building Your Medicine Body
Each week there is a unique theme for our class,
each week's topic builds on the next.
Class structure: Opening Circle, Teaching piece, about 1 hour of guided exploration through free form dance/movement, processing in journals/drawing art piece, and sharing in circle.
(Absolutely no dance or art experience necessary.)
Week 1-Introduction to Building Your Medicine Body
Week 2-Exploring Shadows, Finding Gifts, then Rise
Week 3-Claiming Forgotten Power-Past Life Journey
Week 4-Exploring Shadows of Pain, Releasing Fear, then Inspire
Week 5-Connecting to Our Land & the Great Mystery
Week 6-Trusting and Sensing in the Dark, a Celebration
By the end of the 6 weeks of investigation, through the process of mapping your body (with a simple art component), you will have a clear picture and clear feeling of how you can move forward in your life FROM your stories, not in spite of them.
Free Form Dance & Movement is the tool we will use to tap into the knowledge that may be lying dormant in your body. (Absolutely no previous dance experienced necessary, ALL body types welcome.)
Adina Joy Levitt will guide you through the whole experience step by step. There is no performance, this is an internal process of self discovery, eyes are half closed in this darkened space lit with candles. Please be brave, even if you haven't done anything like this before, you are welcome to join in.

What is your Medicine Body?
Your Medicine Body is a combination of your innate, learned and wound wisdom. When holding this in a conscious way in your life your personal medicine allows you to share the gift of YOU with those around you.
Our "medicine is anything that brings personal power, strength, and understanding."-David Carson
"Many indigenous societies believe that we all possess "original medicine": personal power, duplicated nowhere else on the planet. No two individuals carry the same combination of talents and challenges."-Angeles Arrien

TESTIMONIALS
"I loved my experience...it was so powerful and healing to connect with myself through the medium of dance. There truly is something so beautiful in the reclaiming of and connecting to our primal energies. Sacred dance helps you to move more freely in your body with confidence and comfort, while guiding you through the deepest aspects of your spirit. I can't recommend these classes enough, it's a worthwhile personal investment and self exploration."
-Shiva Justin Matthews, Class past participant
