Monthly Movement Practice

Movement is medicine. We all know that when we move our bodies, we feel better. Period.

 However, how we move our bodies does make a difference.

The body needs diversity in the movement...it needs permission to move how it intuitively needs to... it needs the space to breathe and open and reconnect and ground and unwind. 

When we lose ourselves in dance, we find a sense of wholeness and connection. When we dance we get out of our heads and into our bodies. We connect to the here and now.

Dancing in Community: A Monthly Movement Practice is prepares your body to move, shake, heal, and thrive. We connect with our beautiful bodies, shake out the gunk from our systems, create some space from within, and tap into some joy, connection, and perspective.

There is no dance experience necessary.

There are no expectations in this space.

No steps to follow.

No format to stay on or stay in.

This is a space for you to come and be with yourselves, with your beautiful bodies, with your hearts, and with the intention of following your own inner rhythm of need and connection with yourself exactly where you are in this moment.

Flow through each movement and feel your body come into it’s own. Reflect afterwards with journaling as you sort through past strife and look to a new future.

Alison has been connecting women women in safe spaces through retreats, events, circles, coaching, and other holistic wellness practices for decades and this offering is an opportunity to dip into the work. She is passionate about holding these containers for women to come, be, feel, open, grow, and heal.

When we can blend the freedom of movement with the intimacy, authenticity, and vulnerability of connection in community...magic happens. 

Magic happens each time we enter this sacred space. We come as we are full of courage and vulnerability. We leave a bit more transformed.

This movement practice is an opportunity to engage with Alison’s work when it fits with your schedule. Come once or monthly. Bring friends or attend solo.
