ELEMENTAL DANCE & EMBODIMENT TRAINING (50h)

DANCE IS THE HIDDEN LANGUAGE OF THE SOUL

February 14 - 21, 2025 in Bali

  • DANCE & MOVEMENT

    In this training, I teach daily embodiment and dance practices to strengthen the deep connection between body, mind, and soul. The exercises promote conscious awareness and experience of your own body, helping to develop holistic balance and a free, authentic potential for expression.

    Through our dance practice, we connect more deeply with the element of the day. Depending on the element, you will be invited to explore various dance styles, such as “Roots Ragga/HipHop,” “Inner Child Dance,” and “Sacred Dance.”

  • MOTHER EARTH & THE ELEMENTS

    Understand your energy flow in connection with the elements EARTH, WATER, FIRE, AIR & ETHER within you on a deeper level. This wisdom is based on Chinese medicine, which teaches us about the meridians (energy pathways in the body) and their corresponding organs. We carry all the elements within us; we are them, and they are us. Through intentional focus, prayer, ritual, and movement practices, you will strengthen each element within yourself. In doing so, you will be able to receive insights, messages, and healing directly from the spirit of the elements.

  • RITUALS & ARCHETYPES

    I will guide you through powerful rituals that strengthen the reconnection to the elements through archetypal forces. We connect with the primal Woman/Man to root ourselves to the Earth. She teaches us unconditional love and abundance. To connect with Water, we dive into the wisdom of the sensual Lover. For a deeper connection to Fire, we call upon the wild Woman and wild Man within us. The element of Air is linked to our inner Child, as well as the Mother and Father archetypes. They soften our hearts and teach us about forgiveness. To connect with Ether/Spirit, we invoke our inner Queen/King and open the channel of pure love. They embody divinity and show us how to stand in our full power as human beings.

Guestteachers

  • Susanne Anaya

    An artist at heart and by craft, Susanne gave up a successful career to listen to her inner voice, retreat into nature, and deepen her path into Yoga, Meditation, and Sound. From childhood, Susanne absorbed the wisdom of meditation practices, which were part of her mother’s daily routine. Her love for sound and energy healing was also very present, and later in life, she actively and playfully started exploring these realms for her benefit. Susanne explored different yoga, tantra, and meditation techniques and traditions, studied with renowned teachers, and now shares energy and sound healing and meditation to connect people to their true nature. Meditation taught Susanne how to listen within, trust her feelings, body, and intuition. It helped her embody self-love, transform her life, and completely shift her reality. It is Susanne’s life’s work to pass on these powerful tools of awakening and to create safe spaces for authentic self-expression, embodiment, and healing so we may all step into our full potential and experience the blissful nature that is inherently within.
