rythms of the forest
August 12th 2025 from 6pm-8pm.
We invite you to participate in a safe and intimate circle where we aim to cultivate harmony through the exploration of simple, heartfelt song and devotional dance. Rae, a local song leader will lead us through learning 2 repetitive simple songs. Bridget will teach us how to move our bodies to song, with introductory movements. We create a circle of song and dance and will weave together through these rhythms. This event is held in the Comox Valley, and is free for participants with registration required. Spaces are limited.
Suitable for ages 13+. No experience required. All voices, bodies and experience levels are welcomed and encouraged!
Location and details will be emailed after registration.
Opening circle
We begin each dance session by holding an opening discussion on the history, lineages, and cultural context of the dance forms we are drawing from. This allows us to gain a deeper understanding of the cultural context and meaning imbibed in the movements. My intention is to create a safe space to talk about these important topics so that we can ask questions, make mistakes, and continue to cultivate cultural sensitivity.
