Dance Into Being
Embodyment Through Movement, Rhythm, Voice, and Creativity
Saffier Bouchelion - Offerings
Nia is a practice of self-healing and self expression through conscious navigation of body, mind, emotion and spirit. Cardiovascular for the body and cleansing for the soul, Nia invites us to move as a whole system, an integrated unit that chooses the sensation of pleasure and the state of joy in the body as our baseline. We expand our awareness, our movement vocabulary and our means of expression from there. Nia is Movement as Medicine.
If you have been thinking about drumming and being a part of an expansive and inclusive rhythm community, you are in the right time and place!! Every ancient culture in the world, no matter your tribe, has some type of drum or rhythm instrument used to express the pulse of the people and their unique rhythms. Embodying Rhythm is therefore universal and helps us to access and integrate the common pulse of all humankind, connecting us more deeply to ourselves and each other. Our tools are our hands, and feet, shakers, our voices, and anything else we can think of, but mostly and especially our Beautiful Drums!
This class is for all levels and beginners are safe and welcomed here. I'm willing to open the space also to children as young as 10/11 if they really want to be there, though 13 normally the youngest I normally work with.
The HandPan is Metal Magic. The very sound is alchemical in nature, like metal becoming water, be coming air. This has a very interesting effect on the listener, relaxing and trance-like while being activating and energizing at the same time. “I have been playing these beautiful instruments for many years, and their depth and range never ceases to amaze me. Come and allow this SoundBath to assist you in dissolving into the purest and truest parts of you. Receive these sonic blessings and allow your heart to soar~ I am so excited to share this sonic journey with you.” – Saffire
Embodying Freedom Through Rhythm and Authentic Expression
We are living in a time of profound change and challenge, a moment that calls for us to come together in unity and support. As the structures around us shift and evolve, it's essential that we find new ways to connect, to truly see each other, and to lift one another up. In this space, we seek to be fully seen—and many of us also long to see and hear one another more deeply.
Dance Into Being is designed to guide us on this path of connection, exploration, and discovery. Here, we see. We listen. And together, we create. It is often a beautiful and transformative journey. Come with an open heart, ready to explore, express, and evolve through movement, voice, sound, writing, and the power of co-creation. Experience the profound beauty of being truly seen and held in this sacred space.
