Chakradance - Goddess Kuan Yin: Dance of Compassion & Healing.

Centre of You

Dance with Goddess Kuan Yin to release, heal, &amp; cultivate compassion, joy, &amp; self-love in a soulful Chakradance journey.

In this sacred ritual of release and letting go, we invite Goddess Kuan Yin to dance with us. We connect to the heartfelt gifts of Goddess Kuan Yin – of ‘for giving’ back to ourselves the loving kindness that has been shadowed. Forgiveness for ourselves or others can be difficult and challenging, yet when we hold onto past hurts, it continues to cause us great suffering - leaving us stuck, angry, and in pain. Together with Kuan Yin, we bring compassion and healing to our pain, cultivating more space for love and joy, allowing the jewel of our heart to shine more brightly.This session offers an opportunity to feel lighter, calmer, and more connected to your own radiance, strength, and love within.The Chakradance journey involves a gentle three-part sacred ritual, which includes guided meditation and visualisation, free movement and expression with chakra-resonant music, mandala art creation, and integration and feedback in a safe, held space. What to Expect:This is an inward journey - a dance of the soul, an expression of your body in the here and now. We move with our gaze lowered or eyes closed (eye masks available if you wish) to fully step into and immerse ourselves in this deeply soulful, honouring experience.We move barefoot in whatever way we wish - give yourself permission to move as much or as little as you like. Be guided and moved by the music, your body, and your own journey.All that's required is an open heart, a curious mind, and a deep intention to discover what insights and messages Goddess Kuan Yin has for you. Wear comfortable clothing for movement, bring a water bottle, and bring yourself. If you wish, you may wear green as we connect to the beautiful heart chakra with Goddess Kuan Yin.No dance or movement experience is necessary. This event is inclusive for all. Please let us know of any movement restrictions (or if you prefer a chair).
