Qoya

Facilitator – TBA

In this class we will explore through movement how it feels in your body when you are able to connect with compassion, and all the ways it can manifest in our lives. Qoya is a movement practice for women based on the idea that through movement we remember. We remember our essence of being wise, wild and free.

It incorporates the wisdom of yoga with an invitation to dance the yoga as prayer, it brings in wild through creative expression in dance, and free through expanding our capacity to enjoy our bodies through sensual movement.  The classes are about 1 1/2 hours and there will be time afterwards to sit, share and integrate all that has come up.
