Sun Dance Day Retreat

Cacao Ceremony | Ecstatic Dance | Trance Dance | Sharing circles | Shamanic Sound Healing | Intentional silence | Breathwork | Mantra

• Join us for a day of transformation and healing through movement, music, sound and medicine
• This experience will guide you on a journey deeper into yourself. Surrounded by beautiful woodlands, we will connect deeply with the energies within us and around us. As we move our bodies we release obstacles that no longer serve us, our dance is prayer.
• Dropping out of our minds and in to our hearts allows us to return to pure consciousness, source energy and it is here that we find our truth
• We start the day grounding in meditation, welcoming ourselves and each other into the space. Then, in ceremony, we intentionally use Cacao to connect us deeply to our hearts, accessing our authentic emotion in the present moment. Your fears, hurt, joy and laughter are all welcome. We will take this energy on to the dancefloor and transcend it!
• Through out the day we will also hold sessions for Breathwork, Mantra and a guided Trance Dance, coming together at the end for an integrating sharing circle. A full timetable will be uploaded before the event
• Our Powerhouse of DJ's will guide you through an exciting mash up of tribal beats, Latin fusion, dance bangers and hypnotic trance
• A vegan cooked meal will be made for us and is included in the ticket price
