Bliss Valentine's Dance Sat Feb 13th!


"Feel your Bliss"
Valentine's Dance

Let us open heart... in the spirit of global ecstatic dance, followed by gentle yoga. Trust that you already are the dance...

Workshop:
Saturday Feb 13th
12:30-2:30pm

Cost: $20 (plus free Bliss Journal for new participants : )

Email Irena or call 416 594 0004 to register and for more details.


There will be an opening circle and guidance, as needed, to support your movement practice. Participants are encouraged to stay engaged in the practice for the entire session. This is all about freeing ourselves and 'emptying out'. We will do gentle yoga together for the last portion of the class.

"I want to know if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, or to remember the limitations of being human." (~Oriah Mountain Dreamer - The Invitation)

No previous dance experience or training is necessary. Men/women welcome. Please wear comfortable clothing and bring a mat (gentle yoga for the last half hour).
Location:
Yoga Sanctuary Danforth, 95 Danforth Ave.
4th (top) floor studio

Through this healing practice, we experience a sense of release and coming back to ourselves. This practice deepens self-trust and opens heart.
