ABOUT JOURNEYS
Journeys are intentional dance events held in nonverbal communication only that build on the transformational power of music and dance to guide you on a journey of personal exploration, discovery and expansion.
Journeys, held on 5th Fridays, combine a unique lightly guided theme, infectious World Beat music, and open space for you to dance your journey to a deeper place.
Each Journeys is a unique and co-created event. The themes are presented by different guest dance or movement facilitators who shares their passion and expertise by adapting their expertise to the Journeys format. Guest and resident DJ(s) delve in their Global Fusion music collection to create a soundtrack that directly support each step of the process. Finally, how the dancers respond to each stage influences how the facilitator and DJs adapt the process.
We strongly invite you to arrive early (9 pm) for the opening circle during which the intention and the overall arch (steps) of the Journeys will be detailed. The process ends with a closing circle that facilitates integration. All Journeys are preceded by an optional active meditation at 7:30 pm.

THEME: Vocal Activation
This Journeys will be a dance and movement experience embracing full expression and deep listening. Tapping into the peaceful, playful, primal, and ecstatic aspects that guide our dance and movement, we will translate that expression through the voice. Jaia will guide us through a gentle, mostly inward exploration of the voice and playfully build toward the activation of our most portable of instruments.
Whether a trained vocalist or complete beginner, this Journeys will be a safe and accessible full expression toolkit. As we dance and move together, you will be invited to tone, hum, babble, whistle, chant, harmonize, howl and sing along with the music and re-discover the sounds of the elements within each of us. We will experience the voice as an incredible tool to deepen our relationship with the dance.
