Dancing at dusk
with Nick
we dance freely, usually with only a little verbal teaching, the musical and personal journey being the main guide, with music that changes each time, with genres and rhythms from all over the world; the sessions draw on ideas of conscious movement, moving meditation, ecstasy, and explore some of the many ways of dancing both alone and with each other, where technique is secondary to spirit, where unfamiliar rhythms and musical styles are embraced, and where confident dancers and the shyest of movers are equally welcome

✨Wednesday 24.4.✨
Gong Bath and Sound Meditation
with Suzin Akalan Maçaro
7-9pm

During the session Suzin will introduce you the Gong and other instruments, which she used in sound meditation and sound medicine. We will have an opportunity to meet them closer and to find a personal relationship with theirs sounds and rhythms✨Then diving to the Gong Bath will take all participants to the generous healing potential of the sound for the restoration of the inner balance and the rejuvenation of the body.
Studies have shown that the frequencies produced by the gong can slow down the mind and bring it into a deeper, slower state of vibration. This can help reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and promote overall wellbeing.
There are some the most common potential benefits of gong baths, sound baths, and sound healing:

?Reduced stress
?Relief from anxiety
?Better sleep
?Released emotional blockages
?Better mood
?Improved focus
?Mental clarity
?Creative insights
?Profound physical restoration
?Experience of deep peace

Welcome with any mood, stage of life and healthy creative inquiry ??

About Suzin @suziko ( instagram ) :

Suzin Akalan is a certified sound healing facilitator and a sound meditation instructor, started her journey as a musician and somehow found herself in Auroville on the way, and had the great opportunity to learn deeply about vibrational medicine and Nada. A sound traveller, who explores the sacred middle space between; sound and silence, body and energy, movement and stillness,
seeing and listening, dedicated to tuning the precious instrument that is our being.

With the help of heartfull folk and world music and gentle guiding we’ll express our own dance and voice without judgement and we’ll expand our ability to see and hear the beauty of dances and songs of the people around us - near and far, and to experience the harmonious beauty of expressive togetherness. There will be time for gifts (material and not material) and being social.
