Anyone with their heart and humanity intact likely feels the multifaceted devastation and suffering playing out in the world today.

Embodiment and moving meaningfully through the world doesn’t have to always be through the prism of positivity. Your experience is allowed to be difficult and raw - as coming into truth often is. 

‘Broken Open’ is an opportunity for the body to express the grief that comes with loving, caring & empathy in times of crisis, and most importantly to be held in connection & community.

Here you can bring whatever personal and/or collective grief your heart has been holding, and let it meet a supportive presence.

Through embodied movement & dance this experience will:

  • Invite grief to be the portal to deeper embodiment, care & connection
  • Ignite your heart with devotion for meaningful action wherever you feel most called.
  • See embodiment as a force for collective liberation, not just personal development.
  • Allow you to remember love, remember beauty, and harness pleasure as a resource to avoid burnout & numbing and to keep you heart alive.

'Broken Open' is a call to dance with both the beauty and the terror of being fully human in times that demand our complete presence, unique contributions & community. 

“Dance, when you’re broken open.
Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance, when you’re perfectly free.”

.
“The wound is the place where the light enters you.”
.
"Love is best when mixed with anguish.
In our town, we won't call you a Lover if you escape the pain.
Look for Love in this way, welcome it to your soul,
and watch your spirit fly away in ecstasy."​
 
- Rumi
