WORKSHOP - Intro to Liquid Motion - July 27
Saturday, 2pm – 3:15pm
In this 75 minute workshop, students are introduced to the Liquid Motion movement methodology. Liquid Motion is a method of sensual movement. “Sensual” is not synonymous with “Sexual”. Sensual movement is the “Activation of the senses to create total body awareness. The ability to fully understand how your body naturally moves and what that feels like will ultimately give you the fluidity and Liquid style you are looking for. Liquid Motion does not teach you to be sexy, it teaches you to be sensual, and proud of it.”
Students will learn the Liquid Motion techniques and fundamentals disguised in floor work, body conditioning, travel movement drills, intricate floor progressions, and of course, the exploration of Liquid Motion’s sensual movement.

WORKSHOP - Sound Healing in Hammocks with Jessie Hill - September 8
Sunday, 2pm – 3:30pm
Float away with a unique and relaxing sound healing experience… in an aerial hammock!
In this 90 minute workshop, you will have the freedom to float and sway to the womb-like environment of the supportive, aerial yoga hammock. You’ll learn a few restorative aerial yoga poses, so that you can explore the most relaxing shapes for you during the workshop. Poses can be grounded or flying. After taking shape with the support of the aerial hammock, you’ll enjoy deep vibrational, highly tuned sounds from perfect-pitch crystal quartz empyrean and alchemy singing bowls, Himalayan singing bowls, gongs, chimes, ocean drum and more. These powerful vibrations can balance dissonant frequencies in the body, bringing them to harmony and creating feelings of relaxation and connection. Each bowl and tone represents a different energy system or chakra, for deeply healing effects. Bring your intentions and be prepared to float away into bliss. You’ll leave feeling refreshed and relaxed in a very unique way.

WORKSHOP - Floating Harmony: Aerial Sound Bath Experience with Elise Pierre - October 11
Friday, 6:15 – 7:30pm
This transformative experience will combine the lightness of a suspended, floating body with the soothing practice of a sound bath.
Harmonizing the body with sound has the power to regulate energy along the meridians and calm negative emotions. It also breaks down old patterns of behavior and the fears attached to them, and resets the physical, emotional and mental body.
The hammock offers a cocoon-like environment, which some compare to the maternal womb that cradles and protects your body.
Enjoy the ultimate experience of relaxation and meditation through a sound bath as you float weightlessly to the binaural sounds of crystal singing bowls.
Cost of workshop: $40 without a hammock rental, $50 with a hammock rental
