Gratitude is a powerful force that, when consciously engaged, can magically shift dark energy to light, fear to love, victimhood to empowerment, hopelessness to faith.
In this Qoya workshop we will explore our relationship with gratitude through movement and ritual. What does it feel like in your body to acknowledge all of the good in your life? What does it feel like to give thanks for the challenges that stretch and expand you?
What is Qoya?
Qoya is a dance practice based on the idea that through moving our bodies, we remember.
We remember our essence as women is Wise, Wild and Free.
Wise, Wild and Free also draw reference to the movement forms that we will practice:
Wise: the wisdom of yoga
Wild: the creative expression in dance
Free: expanding our capacity to enjoy our bodies through sensual movement
There are no levels to Qoya and there is no way to do it wrong - you'll know you're doing Qoya right if it feels good in your body!
You should wear clothes that you can comfortably move in and that bring you joy!
Please bring a water bottle and your journal. If you have something special that you'd like to put on the altar, you are welcome to bring that as well.
