THE DETAILS

You are welcome to join an exciting and growing dancing community. Come exactly as you are. All backgrounds, cultures, genders, and physical abilities are welcome. Listen to the wisdom of your body. 

Absolutely everyone can benefit from calming our nervous systems, inviting the thinking to pause.

What will we be doing?

You will be guided by Carrie through a variety of Movement Medicine™ practices and processes, with a background of organic rhythm and melodic music created by world class artists. Movement Medicine™ is a contemporary shamanic “DIY” practice harmonized with the Elements— Earth, Fire, Water Air.

Why Dance? Why Nature?

Creative free form movement in a non-judgmental space promotes strength, resilience, and nurtures our imagination. Moving in new creative and playful ways creates new neural pathways, new insights, a sense of expansiveness, and you may find moments of -- bliss. 

How is the music heard?

Please bring a regular phone headset (see pic at the left) that you will plug into a small radio receiver box, that we provide. The receiver is clipped to your belt, pants, shorts or skirt, so that everyone hears the same music This way, we do not disturb nature or wildlife, and we receive good quality sound with an adjustable volume. The receivers work up to 100 feet away from the “DJ Table” so dancers are free to move to wherever their body takes them.

Please Bring

• A good quality headset with a round mini plug (see picture left!) that you can plug into the audio receiver Carrie will provide to you-- iPhone type headsets with the mini plug work will -- or if you have higher quality like iPhone in the ears— or Beats — or Bose those are great. BLUETOOTH HEADSETS WON'T WORK! They need to be headsets with a wire and round mini plug. 

• Water

• An outdoor blanket or yoga mat to rest and meditate before and after the session.

• A journal and/or sketch book and some art materials if you choose.
