Hosted by Fanny Perez

April 6th 6-9pm

Bushwick

$38/48/58

In this workshop, we’ll engage movement, ritual body postures, and sound, all powerful tools for exploring and processing the transformative energies of this eclipse season. 

In various cultures and spiritual traditions, eclipses have been viewed as auspicious times for inner reflection, releasing old patterns, and embracing new opportunities. 

Together, we’ll tap into these energies more deeply, allowing for a profound exploration of your own processes of death and rebirth, both metaphorically and spiritually.

Offerings:

Movement by Oihana 

A gentle journey of self-discovery, empowerment, and renewal. In this immersive experience, participants will be led through a series of movements that embody the essence of death and rebirth. Through fluid gestures and solid stillness we will delve into the darkness of the unknown, confronting our fears, releasing old patterns, and surrendering to the inevitable cycles of life. Guided by the rhythmic pulse of our breath and the pulsating beat of the music, we will enter a trance-like state, where time and space blur. We will connect with nature’s elements to inspire our movements, we will tap into the primal energies of creation and destruction, harnessing their power to fuel our journey of choice and renewal to emerge radiant, and ready to embrace the infinite possibilities of life.

Ritual Body Postures by Fanny 

Fanny will offer this method to reach ecstatic trance that is mediated by body postures and sonic driving. It is used for healing, journeying, shape-shifting and connecting to the universal mind. The postures adopted in this practice are shown in selected pre-historic and indigenous artifacts and are explained as ritual instructions by anthropologist Felicitas Goodman, the woman who developed this practice. People that adopt these postures report experiences that show great similarity.

For this special edition we will work with the Feathered Serpent Posture. The Feathered Serpent is the mighty feminine source of life and fertility, the one who, in teaching the dance of life, takes us through the all-consuming cycles of death and rebirth.

Sound by Yuj

Yuj Archetype offers his multidisciplinary instrumentation and vocal gifts to co-create the trance-invoking environment. He has a decade of knowledge and experience embodying altered states of consciousness through frequencies and the understanding of vibrations being the universal medium of reality. With his musicality, he will support us in engaging and entering trance states of healing, and decompressing as we ground to reflect from our journeys.
